| PHIL'S REVIEW - What a blessing this installation turned out to be! I must be honest here that when I received the package, I didn't hold much hope. FedEx had beaten the box to death and it did not look promising. I called the manufacturer and they assured me that if there was a problem with the product then they would immediately ship me another. That was reassuring. To my pleasurable surprise, when I opened the beaten package, the oval step bars were in perfect condition. I installed the first oval tube on my 2005 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab 1500 on the drivers side in about 30 minutes. The passenger side went on in 20 minutes because I knew what I was doing. I only needed my socket set with a 1/2" drive and a drive extension. I had to take out the three body mount bolts on each side. That was easy. The only trick to know here is that when you put the bolt back up thru the bracket, make sure you remember to put the bushing on top of the bracket between the bracket and the truck. The instructions make that very clear and they were very easy to follow. Once I tightened the bolts I stood on the bars and there was very minimal give. They feel very sturdy and currently I weigh 228 pounds. I would certainly recommend this product to the do-it-yourselfer for their ease of installation and product quality.
