Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble

Happy New Year! I've spent part of my holiday/work shutdown time figuring out how to mount nurf bar steps on my truck so my wife can get in. Ok, so my heavy old self is likely to appreciate them as well

I bought the bars from Dee Zee. They were universal but supposed to fit my application with some fabrication required - understatement of the year!! Between the step up in the frame starting under the cab, and my saddle tanks, the mounting bracket for the rear didn't even touch the frame and the front brackets only had the top set of holes on the frame. Fabricating a new set of mounting brackets for this severely stretched my limited talents in this area I think I'll be happy with them though after I do some touch-ups.

I'd posted a "need some help" thread on the main 4x4 forum, but got no responses. I'm posting the details of what I came up with in that thread. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=1#post6445798
