So grateful for you being honest about the things we will run into that you did. Jobs sometimes (almost always) have the "I gotta do that again" things! Great video thank you!
Yes again nice video here’s a military tip wed put brush swab iodine on bare metal holes that we pre drilled or remove rivets from to prevent rust .. it was like the old grade school glue dispenser jars with the brush on the inside of the jar cap/lid presoaked in iodine ..remove cap Swab the hole replace rivet/bolt
I am glad to see this video as I can clearly see now that this step is only for ornamental use and not for actually stepping on if they are to just be affixed to thin flimsy sheet metal. If a two hundred pound man was to step on this the sheet metal would give way and flex and eventually over time it will break away from the sheet metal. Also, I am sure that if the company that built this step after years of engineering and manufacturing thought it needed the holes on the bottom they would have done so and not weakened the metal more.
It's not a flimsy piece of metal. It's reinforced and where you put the jack which supports more weight then you or I combined could ever apply to it. These are just as funtional as any other step on the market. You don't know jack shit about cars
Thanks for the video. I need some similar steps, but I dont like the idea of them being installed to the pinchweld and the underside and not into the frame. How do you think the one's you installed will hold up to a 250 pound person getting in and out of the truck everyday. In the video you didn't try to hang on the steps or put much weight on them. Your honest opinion ?
They seem to be holding up fine. The guy that owns the truck is at least 240 pounds. No problems yet. I personally like a full running boards. The weight is more distributed and you can put your foot in different locations.
just curious, I'm sure there's a reason but why do you have to step up the drill bit size from 1/8 up to 5/16 instead of just going with the 5/16 at the beginning? Thanks great video
You want to drill a pilot hole to get the hole started. A bigger drill bit can walk around more that a small bit. If you do it like this you won't burn up the bigger bit. Thanks for watching
This video helped me today. My low-budget steps came with weird brackets and no instructions. Thank you
Man that is a SWEET shop. Great how-to video too.

I like the Electric Air ratchet you mentioned I believe it's a Electric ratchet though! LOL.... Not Air! Solid install 👍 Looks Good.
So used to saying air ratchet because that was all I had for 25 years. Battery tools have come a long way. Thanks for watching

I would call your local garage first. But most body shops should do this.
