byway fun

Forum: 

just had my first proper byway session today and what fun it was and and was so suprised how well my little sporty done out for 6 hours and about 12 good lanes and was stuck solid once but a little digging and the help of a small 4 ton hand winch was free in no time as only have a 2" lift and 195 road tyres just shows that picking route and taking your time does work as a lot of the track had been well used by the bigger tyred veicles very happy sporty owner

Fitting side steps - F78

Forum: 

HI All,

I've just got myself a second hand set of side steps, although I fear they are from the last of the earlier <'93 model Fourtrak (mines a 96/97)
The brackets seems not to fit the chassis correctly...the longer bracket for the front of the steps needs a bolt hole...do I need to drill the chassis for this? as I cannot seem to find a suitable hole towards the front of the chassis?
