Thanks guys for all your help. It took me about 2 hours by myself this evening. You are right the bolts were on freaking tight as hell but I finally got them off. This Christmas Santa is going to bring me a good torque wrench for futures mods like this. I went with the black ones cause I am eventually going with some black wheels, maybe Santa could bring me those too! lol.

Thanks again guys. I will post some pics soon after I get her cleaned up!

What brand of nerf bars did you get? The ones that I have, I HATE them. The ones on the driver side have bent the mounting bracket so badly, that I could probably jump on them right in the center, and break them off. You step on them they just sink down literally three inches. I want to rip them off and either mount them a different way, or reinforce the mounting brackets. So hope you don't have any problems with that.

I have Bullett brand nerf bars. The hardware is actualy pretty thick metal and so far they are very sturdy.

I would have went chrome, but that's just me

Regardless, they are a nice addition to any truck!!

The way my truck is right now I agree with you, but I have decided to take advantage of 4WheelParts deals on some black ProComp wheels. They have them now for buy 3 get the 4th free! A brand new set of wheels are going for $450 right now.

Does anyone have a good picture of the Mopar Black (powder coated) oval side steps?

I realize RaiderJay6 has exactly what I am looking for but I was hoping to get a picture that was a close up.
