Installing a door side step on the utility rail

[LEE JONG HOE]

안녕하세요, 사진과 비슷한 유틸리티 레일에 도어 사이드 스텝을 설치해 볼 계획입니다.


사용하기 가장 좋은 유형의 L-트랙 볼트, 재료 또는 설치 방법에 대해 조언해 주시겠습니까?

"Hello, I'm planning to install a door side step on a utility rail similar to the one in the photo.

Can you advise me on the best type of L-track bolt, material, or installation method to use?"

One consideration, the utility rail is only rated to hold ~40kg on the door

Good point that’s why it’s better to put a step on the hinges.

Buzz and DVA both make one, I opted for the Buzz kit like the photo. Very happy with it. Note the factory bolts can be difficult to remove would advise having your dealer break them loose before attempting install.

Thank you for your response. I’ll have to think about it.

I’ll have to ask the dealer to release it.

As you say they were bloody tight so have to make sure you have really good torx bits or they’ll snap.

Thank you so much for your advice.

The paint on the screw could come off, and it might even break — it really gives me a lot to think about.

From what I remember you put new screws on that come with the steps.
