Can anyone help me in telling me how to remove the sidesteps on the LX470.

Is it easy to do!

Thanks

 

Yes its easy. Why your getting some SLEE sidesteps?

 

Yup,

Not now but in a couple of months.

 

Sweet it would really look great on your LX

heres a pic that might show you the hook-up onto the LX470
Go Slee!

 

val, i took my steps off one night because i was bored. Just a few bolts and some crap falling in your eyes and you will be done.

 

I'm still saving for bumpers =/

 

I'm saving for sidesteps and rear bumper?

 

I need help!

1loudlx was right, the amount of dust and mud particles is horrific, lol.

How do you take off the 2 bolts on the end of the sidestep?

Do you need a special type of tool to reach in there?

The two middle brackets where easy but the sides are pretty hard to reach into.

Thanks

 

use the power of the picture VAL...
Hehe use my pic that I posted above.Also just scrape off the crap under the sidesteps with a spatula u dont use .Good luck!

BTW did you already get the Slee sidesteps?
If so, so us some pics man!

 

i honestly dont remember the specifics, but i know i just used a wrench or socket and took all the brackets off where they mount to the body. I did it at 3am when i was bored like two years ago, im a little rusty on the specifics.

Maybe Jim Chow with his FSM or post on 'mud. It didnt take long but i do remember some bolts being a pita to get out.

 

The left is done, that was very easy but the front right on the other sidestep, omg, i'll guess I'll play with it 2morrow!

its a night and day difference, especially when in high.

I might get the slee rock-sliders in a couple of weeks!

Thanks

 

yeah, nowhere to stand!

Does it bother you the way the bodypaneling on the corners by the wheels looks like there is something missing? I think the landcruisers w/o the running boards pull of the look better then the LX, but hey....you actually need rock rails.

 

I did it, that right front bolt was a pita, but very easy!

I prefer it without the sidesteps, doesn't look handicapped anymore.

 

another photo!

Thanks for the help!

 

hellll yeah sick dude you just need the sliders and a rear bumper now!
