stock running boards

[Mtssurf1]

ok so major noob question, do the factory running boards just bolt on to the frame? If so how long would it take to get them off with two people? I think its time for me to be a real t4r member & take them off.

If I remember correct it was a 10mm socket. Took me about fifteen minutes with a hand tools. Easy to fix this issue. Pics before and after bud.

easy as pie

Its like 8 bolts a side, I did myself in about 30 minutes. Super easy, truck is always filthy now....

Took me about 30 minutes in my driveway by myself. It's a 13mm to get the six bolts on the frame, then a 10 at the front wheel well.

Did it last weekend. Took like 15mins. IMO trucks look better when they're gone.​

Thanks for the replys. I plan on taking them off tomorrow around 12, ill post pictures. Can't wait

Mine were a pain to get off due to rust. Actually had to grind a couple bolts off...

Man it's been sooo long but it's easy to do. You will love the look. I remember people asking me if I got it lifted.

I'm amazed how easy it was, I used the 13mm all around, is the front top bolt not suppose to come off? It looks like it was tac welded in place but i couldn't tell since I got mine under coated.

Here are some pics

I can't seem to figure out how to get more then one photo at a time on iPhone so here is it with the running boards before & then after

Looks great man, and yea it seemed like the front bolts on mine were tac welded in place as well so i just cut them off

What do you do about the rear sr5 fender flare? It will hang down below the body line when the boards are removed.
