Westin Tube Step Installation - 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser - Video

Westin Tube Step Installation -  2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser

Today we are going to show you part number 26-3125 from Westin automotive products. What we are going to install are some tube steps on a 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. This install will be an relatively easy one to do. There are already threaded bolt holes in the frame which is really nice from the factory. So basically all it is when you hold up the bracket install the bolts and then tighten them down it will be pretty simple. We will do that on 4 points of the vehicle. We will do this here, make sure you do not mess with this cable here for the parking brake. The bracket actually goes around it. So it is pretty hard to mess that up. You have this bracket, and when going towards the front of your vehicle, you will see 2 more threaded holes up by the body mount here. Again it mounts in the very same way it just bolts on. It is identical to this on the driver side also. Before we can begin our install it would be a good idea to run the bolts in and out of the hole a few times. To make sure there is no dirt or junk that would mess up the threads. So it is a good idea to just go ahead and run them in a little bit. We got about 2 threads in and it stopped already. more

Westin Sure-Grip Running Board Installation

Today we are going to install part number 27-1495 from Westin automotive products. These can be used on many different style of running boards. These can be used on 2002 to 2006 Chevy Trailblazers EXT and the GMC Envoy. This application is pretty straight forward. What happens is these brackets you can see here, get bolted up to the bottom panel. Then they set up like so and get bolted into place. Now on the rear ones here they use bolt on. The other 3 will require a bolt thats already existing to be used. There is a hole you have to drill for a fastener on the other 3. One thing you will want to do is any holes that are underneath the frame you might want to run a bolt through them to clean them out. We went ahead and first off sprayed them with some WD40 and ran the bolts in just to clean them out. more
