Attention: TDR Forum Junkies I installed my tough country wheel to wheel running boards yesterday. Pretty straight forward install. Four bolts per side, two are existing body mounts that simply replace factory bolts and the other two go into the body after removing the tape covering the holes. Only modification i had to make was on the supplied T-bolts for the body holes. They send four (two per side) pieces of flat steel stock with bolts welded to them. I had to grind down the corners of one end ( the short side of the "T") on each of the four T-bolts in order to get them to fit into the holes in the body.
I did the install myself although it would have been a touch easier with an extra pair of hands to help hold up the heavy boards while installing the bolts.
Boards are very sturdy well built, although there is a bit of a difference in reveal when comparing them side to side but this may be the truck as much as the boards.
Just thought i would let know about the small mod that was necessary for my install in case anyone is thinking of getting a set.
I will post pics in my gallery after it stops raining.
