Also, if you had and kept dual saddle tanks, they sit right where you want to put the rear step mounting bracket. Just something to be aware of... BTW, I love your truck!
Thanks for the input. That's what I was concerned about. Frame is powdercoated, so I don't want to drill any holes unless I have to. I don't have side tanks on it. I have one between the frame rails under the bed.
Thanks for the compliment on the truck! I'm getting to know and love it more myself! Only has about 1500 miles on it since the ground up build.
