heh, i have 11 bolts total on my kit. 3 on each piece, and one on each side of the pan into the sides. fairly stable. those side bolts really strengthened it.

sdime98 · 02-29-2004, 11:49 PM

you don't get any side to side wobbling like when push the bottom of it in?

gotUsic · 02-29-2004, 11:57 PM

You guys didn't bolt it to those? No wonder your shit moves around. So what did you do with the bars, just let em flap in the wind? You ain't gotta fab shit up, you drill a hole and put the stock bolt back in.

Hey guys with the ECC stepshaver + rollpan kit, does anyone know if the rollpan has license plate lights, that shine on the license plate at night? I can't tell if it does or not. Thanks.

How is it installed? Did you drill a hole right above the license plate or something? Is that the light, that little rectangle in the middle of Lousiana? I dunno if I like seeing the light exposed like that, I'd rather have it hidden above. Hrm.

ack...i havent read this thread ina while... X[
i used my old ones for the front of the fender...just switched sides...the rounded edge didnt match my new shaved edge at all =[

im still looking for thinner rubber to use.

what you see here is my untrimmed, too small rubber sticking out. the plan for the new rubber will be about 1/8" away from the frame and leaf spring. the steel bracket behind, ill get pictures of them when i change to the lighter rubber. herez what i got now:
