How to install a side step w/o brackets?
 
I bought a pair of side steps (running boards) from ebay. However, there is no brackets coming with the steps. Is there a way bodyshop guys can weld them on the chassis?

Any comments/suggestions are welcome.
Thanks !!:)

THey can, but they will be on there for good. Price the mounting hardware at the dealer. It probably won't be too much.

Is this for a D1?

Get the hardware kit for sure, at RoverConnection ($75, part number STC 50225), and it will work with either style running board.

I find out from the "running board installation guide" (which is downloaded from LR site) I still need4 Z-shaped metal brackets on top of the STC50225.

They are asking for US$200 with shipping !!!!!

This is the problem in using eBay, the kit from Rovers Land looks like it has what you need, and I bet that why their price is so high.

Unless you can get the brackets fabbed at a shop you'll need the $200 kit, you'll have an even harder time finding just the brackets. Or return the running boards and look for a more complete set.

Thanks, Disco2Guy. I think I have no choice but the $200 kit because I bought the boards from ebay private sale. No returns.
