Hi Noah...looks great. What year?
I have an '04 LC with running boards...I likethe looks of my 1990 LC and my 1994 LC both came withour running boards.
The 2004 version has the running boards a bit more "integrated" with the somewhat revised fender flare profile. Do they still come off clean?...and does the "naked" 2004 version look OK w/o running boards? Anyone take them off?
Thanks...Tom R
You did the T-bars too right? Looks great!
Especially the fresh armorall...
Now go getz dat beatch dirtay!
Tom, can you post a pic so we can see what you mean by integrated? There was no fender revision in 2004 but you might have the fender flares which many have also removed. AFAIK, all 100 series running boards can be removed and look fine, if not improved.The 2004 version has the running boards a bit more "integrated" with the somewhat revised fender flare profile.

Easy to take off! Just order front mud flaps and hardware from cDan.
Dude! You gotta do the T-Bars! It'll sit so nice!
OK...I have never liked the running boards on my 2004 LC...I just had not looked closely to see that they could come off w/o much hassle.
Questions...
1) Is the removal as simple as just unbolting?...or are there any "comlications/surprises" that an inexperienced wrench would encounter?
I believe there are 7 bolts that hold each side on...very very easy to take off, just dont let it fall on your head
2) Would it be just a s easy to re-install at a later date for re-sale...would there be any alignment issues or do you "ruin" and of the brackets in the removal process?
easy to reinstall for sure - you dont hurt anything
3) Could someone please provide a link to the source of the front wheel mud guards?...cDan?
cant help you here...i didnt put front mud gaurds on
4) Is the "front sag" you mention quite universal?...does it show more clearly with the BRs removed? Is the adjustment something a dealer would be familiar with? Any complications of this procedure?
search for torsion bar adjustment and it will walk you through it. I did it myself with no issues. All you need is two jacks, a 30mm socket, breaker bar, and a tape measure
Well, so far it will be Bilsteens and remove RBs...what's next?
put a Starbucks in it
...Thanks...TomR
