I dont like that they mount to the body mounts. I have seen side steps on other vehicles in the past mount the same way & often over time they eventually caused body mount problems and/or broke themselves due to flexing at that particular area and contacted the body. I am not trying to talk anyone out of them, I have seen them and they look nice, I just think there are much better ways to mount something. Again, personnal preference.

(hopefully I am wrong and you never have any trouble with them)
