You could still do that with yours, but the cutting and drilling of holes would have to be done on the truck instead of in a bandsaw and drill press. Maybe a plasma cutter? Drilling the stainless might be a bit of a challenge.
I also welded a 1/8" bar to the frame, then drilled and tapped the bar and frame so I could bolt the nerf bars on. I can go from nerfy to non-nerfy in a couple minutes.
Only problem - some of my Fanatic friends have their eyes on my nerf bars, and they're easily removed.
