I picked up a pair of Tone's step bars and will be putting them on in the next couple of days.
Just looking for any helpful tips that anyone has to share before I get under there.
Much appreciated,
Cy

Pretty straight forward but if you want them useful, will need to add spacers to get them further out from the body to be ablr to step on. You can use a bunch of 1/2" OD washers and use longer bolts.
Well, they're on!
(check pics in gallery)
How did you get the bolt out to replace it with a longer one?
I'll ask again...Quote:

When I get the time to be more creative, I'll post the end results but it will probably require custom brackets.
The only tip I would give is that you'll have to lift the carpet (both front and rear because the body mount bolts will spin when you remove the nuts for the installation). Remember that the large bolt on the front and rear of the tube that connect it to the brackets has a slot for adjustment. You will probably have to loosen them to adjust the spacing of the brackets so that they line up with the body mounts.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
