Underbody photos of Nasta Install
Upon reading the reviews here, I ordered some Nasta nerf bars. Everyone says they're easy install. I'm not completely incompetent with the tools, but I can't get it to work. Can someone post up pics of mounted braces that run from the brackets to the body panels? Any help would be appreciated.

I JUST installed a set of S.S. Nasta's on my 04.5 2500 last weekend.

As promised here are a few pics of my Nasta steps.
All pics are of the passengers side.
The angles bent on the smaller body brackets weren't perfect but were very close.

Awesome. Once I saw where the braces should go and trusting that they would bend in as they should, they went right on.

Big thanks to kloppk! Lovin' the Nasta step rails.

On my kit, it had stickers saying to remove the rubber on the end of the tube before bolting to the bracket.

Does it seem like it has a little give (spongy feeling) with the rubber on?
