Reviews for Westin HDX Drop Nerf Steps for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JK
These steps are great, they look good and are very heavy duty. Install was pretty simple once I figured out the proper location for the brackets. They came well packaged with instructions. You will need a friend to help hold them in place while lining up and installing bolts.
Just like everybody else that purchased HDX steps, they will start rusting. Steps are constructed well, however paint is not adequate, they shoud be powder coated or painted with few layers of quality paint. If you do buy them I suggest going over them with a steel brush and repainting it before you install them
Looked nIce for first year. They started to rust after about 2 years. Call about warranty and I was pretty much told out of luck. Might take off and spray with bed liner sanded
Steps on side bars started to rust after about 3 years and were completely rusted out after four years. Contacted the manufacturer for resolution but I was told that the warranty period had expired and there nothing they could do. Terrible quality and terrible customer service at Westin-HDX. Wish I could have uploaded photos so you can see what they look like now.
Also, installation was a difficult process with dozens of fasteners and vague instructions.
