Is this an actual build-up thread or just for the running board removal?

No big deal - each section has a brief description of what threads belong in them.
If you ever have any questions feel free to PM me or any of the other mods and we'll help guide you.

I moved your thread to the 3rd gen section.

It made a world of difference when I took mine off... Well I pretty much destroyed them on a trip, and drug them back to town hanging off my truck.
Decided to make some rock sliders instead....
Looks way better.

If you take off your SR5 flares, let me know how much you want for them.

Pictures of the Sliders!
Custom Built and Installed.

I was originally planning to bolt these on instead of welding, but during the fab process the truck was rear-ended and is now salvage.

Oh well, time to weld the the frame now instead!

(Maybe someday I might wash the truck.... hopefully it rains today! )

I took off my chrome flares and have no use for them if anybody wants to buy them cheap shoot me a price in PM. I'll double check and see if they're still in good shape. Never know with brothers kids, etc
