I will sure try,the front is streight foreward, they just bolt to the frame. Two on the sides and two on the bottom. I tapped them since the drivers side had the tank in the way.

Y-not, Nice Truck! How are the marker lights under your doors attached? And what kind of light did you use? They are sharp. - Matt

Matt,
they are just standard clearance lights, they take a 194 lamp. I did change them out to LED, and they have a nice look at night. They are mounted with ss self drilling screws.

I have access to a welder, and and materials. Just want to get a better view of how you did it.

Could you feel any difference in the truck after the installation of the traction bars?

Re:RANCHO TRACTION BARS

I felt a big differance in the truck, but I changed alot of things at once. Hard to say which one helped more then the other.
