Running board Replacment.

[Reklaw]

So I was side swiped this weekend and buddy hit and bent the left running board and broke the rear running board bracket on my 24 summit X. I looks like I should only have to replace the outer piece and the back bracket. Has anyone changes these out or even the whole running boards? Any tips or advice? Thanks

Muskoka just said its 1600 at the dealer for a full replacement installed, not hard to do yourself in the shop in a afternoon tho

Sled is Insured? Or take it in and send buddy the bill.

I have changed them.(the outside piece, you dont have to replace the board looks like) Its pretty easy. Youll need a good drill bit, good stainless steel rivets, rivet gun and a hammer by the looks of things..

Yep just drill them out. When I ordered that piece, it came raw aluminum though. So you'll probably have to get it powder coated.


Its a pretty easy job.

the large rivits are sometimes easier to remove with a air chisel
