New Steps/Mounted on Rock Rails

[PolarVortex]

Just got these off Amazon recently - took a little longer than planned to install due to poor instructions but all good, figured it out. Price was not too bad given the decent quality (with coupon around $230). I also did a full review on it with more detailed install instructions than the (terrible) included ones. Hopefully my review will show up on the Amazon site soon. If you have a 4dr. Black Diamond, I recommend them:

Not bad looking. They sit a little low, but overall I like the design. Time will tell how they hold up, especially during the Winter months. But nothing a little LineX or powder coating can’t fit later - if needed.

Thanks… the angle and lighting isn’t great in the picture but there’s still a good bit of clearance. They come off easy enough for off-roading if need be.

I would suppose you don't use your rock rails for rocks then...

Not today. Maybe tomorrow. That’s why I said they come off easy enough. My wife and daughter had a hard time climbing in. Thus the install.

No worries man, I'm trying to find something for mine that is off-road ready. I will probably end up welding tube to my rails. My interest was from your subject line. how easy are they to remove?

Very easy I’d say. I used a T30 bit on a small ratchet for the bolts and it’s simple removal of the two bolts per step, lift the step off the rock rail and you’re done. The instructions were poor so if someone buys them and doesn’t know what they’re doing, they’ll be confused.

Here's steps by Broaddict on my 2dr Badlands Sasquatch. Simple to install. Step up is 19" instead of 26-1/2". These don't reduce ground clearance- they are flush with bottom of rock rail, but are also easy to remove trail side. https://amzn.to/48QxQyM

Overhead grab straps are also a must for easing entry. They're cheap and easy to install. https://amzn.to/3HxZFzU

These sill protectors are also cheap insurance and look nice. https://amzn.to/49cWNUG
