    Anyone know how many hours to remove old cab steps and replacement/weld in New ones? One both sides or just one!

    Could you maybe put some pictures on here. It would help to identify more precisely how much time it would take. Taking a guess I would say at least an hour removal, and longer putting the patch in. So total it would probably take me a good 5 hours if I really got into it and tried to make it look good. But I am always a little optimistic about guessing time, so it might take longer. That's why the pictures would help. And you always have to factor in the unexpected things and whether or not you have the time to do it in one weekend

    Thanks for the pics but may I ask why you wanted to know the amount of hours.? Were you not the one to replace that step ( assuming that is before/after pics.)

    Is your truck all original or is it a restomod?

    Yeah. I wanted to know what the approximate time was to replace it was going to be before I did it! Still wondering how long someone else's time would be! It took a while!
