Unless you have little lady hands that are somehow also strong as a vice, this is a complete MFer. 97 hours for the driver side. Have not tried the passenger side because it is working. Shortcuts...buy more E Clips before you start. They are springy and scurry under heavy objects when allowed their freedom. After trying forever to get the E Clip on the gas piston end off, I used dental tools to pry it off. Get some dental tools. The gas piston itself was so difficult to remove that I almost gave up on the repair and my sobriety. Cursing helps. The end piece came off after 400 1/16th revolution turns and a full teaspoon of knuckle meat scuffed off. I almost took the step off the truck because there is so little room to work. In the end, I realized the piston was trash, so I pried it much further out than I would have otherwise and actually got that crappy little wrench they sent to work (again, 600 tiny turns). Plan A was also Plan N. Afterwards it was pretty straight forward. Again, surplus E Clips are advised. The cheesy music on this video will haunt my dreams for the rest of my life.

Not very happy this is the third time replacing this I don’t drive it in the winter I used electro grease on all the connections. Every time I pulled it apart. No corrosion looks perfect but the control boards burn out for the driver side every time.

These steps are everything I want in a step but they just don't work. The idea is there and its great hopefully a gen 4 might be better. I have gen 2 with the upgraded springs but they can't handle the cold and even on warm days they fail. I keep them lubricated with the RSE recommended lubricant and I clean them regularly but I fear I need a new motor as it only fully retracts 50% of the time. There really is nothing else like these on the market and being I have little kids (one with a disability) I suck it up and repair them. I just wish they were more reliable.

@keithelder8 ай бұрын
It took me over 3 hours to do just one side by myself. It would have been faster if I had help but as others have mentioned you have to raise and lower the steps and I had to go to the store to get the correct tools. I have a switch under steering wheel I could reach to let steps up and down, but that's going to go slower on passenger side unless I can get a buddy to come over and drink some pops while I do the work. Tough part for me was the Jeep is raised high enough that sitting in a chair didn't work, so I sat on a roll bed which was uncomfortable. Getting the e-clip off the shock is the toughest spot. I suggest to go purchase like I did a pick kit. I would up using two different pick ends at different times. I didn't realize how much mud was on the back of the step and this probably over time contributed to the shock deterioating faster than expected. If you are washing these, get behind the step itself, lots of mud back there. The install on passenger will no doubt go faster as I have all the tools now laid out and will def have someone helping. I'd hate to pay a shop for all this labor. It isn't hard, just tedious to get into the area you need to get into. Then, the hardest part was getting the step back on so the bolt lined up with the holes trying to hold it by myself. Get a small round flash light you can lay up inside these steps, makes seeing things much easier. I had two flashlights, one dewalt I could stand up on the ground and a small one to put inside.

@steveschaefer65558 ай бұрын
My tip is to install the spring retaining pin into the end of the old gas shock tip you’re reusing BEFORE reattaching. Screwing the end in took way too long when it was already reattached. Those eclips are terrible and I had to use needle nose pliers instead of the thing they provided. I also used my impact wrench a few times to make things go faster.

I finally installed this update kit due to the cooler weather causing steps to not fully rise up. Like most comments, I had a tough time with the first side, but the second side (passenger) went smoothly. I don’t have one of the picks, so I made due with what I had which made it more difficult. As for the E-clip tool, I couldn’t get clip to stay like video shows, so I used a small piece of scotch tape and laid it over the slot, but not letting it stick yet, then pushed the E-clip against the tape pushing it into the slot then pushing down the outer edges of the tape. It held the clips perfectly after that. Drivers side took 1.5 hours, and passenger side took 15 minutes.
@wesleybray30469 ай бұрын
I just installed this kit to replace the gas shocks that had stopped closing completely on the driver side. It was an easy install. The drivers side was more difficult to me. I backed the tension off because the full tension would cause the step to bounce when closing from the force. YMMV. It’s a tight install but the retro spring fix seems good. My steps were installed originally by me in 2020. Good luck. Took an hour for drivers side. 10 minutes for the passenger.

Nice step side. Not so good at rock sliding. First time out, a fairly uneventful rub on a rock completely tore the step out. RSE states “we don’t warranty our products for off-road damage” imagine my surprise that a product made specifically for off-road use was not warrantied for off-road use.
