as it says , having just found some black holes behind mine i was thinking of leaving the trims off , and if the kids can get in and out , maybe the sidesteps off too .
any advice ?
 
the day i got mine i took the steps/bullbar/plastic sills etc off, i hate them they shouldnt be on a 'proper' 4x4
 
ditch the sil corrosion accelerators, and then lose the steps - then fit sliders/tree bars
 
OMG, I have bought some Bearmach side steps and have not yet got round to fitting them.:(

I couldnt believe the weight of them when i took them off mine, 22kgs of extra weight just so the kids can get in better, well i say ****em cant wait to see how they try and get in when its had a lift.

Side steps are that heavy 'cos they're little better than thick metal tubing .. indeterminate origin, the cheapest of cheap crap, and as strong and useful offroad as a chocolate bar that's melted. Decent square tubed rock/tree sliders of a similar size might have 1/4 the size wall thickness, be far lighter and way stronger.
