2 things....


1. Any pics of lofted third gens with aftermarket step bars? Mine had power boards from the factory, but were replaced with the ugly running boards sometime before I bought it. I’d love the power ones, and yeah, I know they’re problematic. I would do away with them all together, but I hate watching friends and family yank at my interior to try to climb in. Apparently it’s a struggle.

2. Anyone runnings spacers on the stock 20’s? Or spacers period? I really want to push my wheels out an inch or two. I think it looks so good with that little bit of Tire/wheel hanging out of the wheel well. Mine are completely inside right now. I’m nervous about spacers though, tons of bad stories related to them it seems like.


Here you go

'09 ssv 4x4, fresh ranchos, $50 used wheels w/ prated 275/55r20 once I found out rancho ride sucked with the ol' LTs

Steps were a bit of a nightmare to install because they don't actually mount up correctly to this generation and it was a redneck engineered solution that involved some cutting on the brackets and some rocker drilling

(some sales lit lists it as '03 - '08 so I thought '09 wpuld be pretty easy, but it seems like a misprint that meant to say '03 - '06... then again, based off some pics and the supplied instructions inside I may have actually gotten the wrong steps entirely sent to me by mistake)


PS tons of other mods on this thing, so your overall looks will vary

I also have seen that ridiculous video. 1 mile above sea level and the expy is hundreds of pounds lighter optioned with a better axle ratio pitted against the XL Denali, what a fair match up.
