[QUOTE="DILLARD000, post: 1040058, member: 74901"] Several years ago, my side steps started rusting from inside out. Tried to remedy that with RattleCan Rustoleum GrayPrimer every 6months or so, sprayed both into the holes under the ends & all outside. Ended up taking them off a couple of years ago; did keep the 2*3ea/Side brackets; wire brushed cleaned & repainted those, then to my spare parts box. Threw out the horizontal running boards\tubes+treads; they were too far gone rusty. I may at some time fabricate my own with something better\stronger. I like the looks wOut the steps & makes getting under the truck easier; but wife is shorter, so she complained at first, but really no longer an issue. Taking them off is fairly easy, here's a vid: [MEDIA=youtube]2oAUOsrh-II:25[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
