This is a 77 FJ40. I noticed that the steps below the doors really flex when stepped on, to the point of bending the sheet metal they're bolted onto, but having bigger fish to fry I really haven't looked into why until today... just avoided stepping on them. Here's a pic of the driver's side showing the support piece that presumably should connect to the step to support it.
The two parts are at least an inch apart. I don't see any evidence of a body lift, nor do I see any obvious way to adjust the position of the bracket or step, so my question is what parts am I missing? Is it supposed to bolt up directly or is there supposed to be a spacer there?
