Best Auto Side Steps?

[Brian_B]

I can't complain about the RSEs either. I have heard that earlier revisions had some issues, but seems they have worked it out for the most part.

Mine have been through rivers, mud, and banged on a few rocks and came out the other end ok. The Driver's side likes to click when it rolls, but that's the only abnormality that I can notice after a year of abuse.

I hose them down and spray the moving parts with dry silicone lube when I wash the Bronco - only maintenance I've done so far.

I found the factory step to be positioned to high for me to comfortably step up into the Bronco without sliding across the seat side bolster. I installed the RC E-boards with dual motors and these are not only a wider step but perfectly positioned (lower) to enable a very comfortable step and the swing into position perfectly in the seat. I did one enhancement to mine. I installed a strip LED that runs all the way down the side above the step. This enabled me to connect to the forward LED connectors and eliminate the wires showing from the Puck LED's provided with the kit from either showing wrapping around the pinch weld, or worse drilling the pinch weld to pass the wire through. I purchased these LEDs from Superbrightleds.com (been using them for years) and just put the mating connector on the end of each strip to directly connect to the RC harness. Bottom line I am very happy with the install and the position of the step, how wide they are and the quality of the kit. Well Done Rough Country.

Superbrightleds.com is where I purchased the strip LED. I picked the weatherproof rated, they have several options. I have not had any issues with them or the steps. works flawlessly.
