Review on Bully NB XTRB Multi Fit Black Powder by Gregory Shin

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not as good as the original

This is my 4th pair of footpegs which I have purchased in the last 15 years and have fitted to 3 different trucks. I've always bought Vestins. I think so far. Big mistake so far. I bought these Bully NB-XTR - Bully Stainless Steel Step Bars to save on costs while having the product on hand, bought it directly from the store instead of ordering it and paying all the shipping costs. This idea was acceptable to me. start, but the installation was a worm. According to Westin, Bully's build was the difference between a 25-piece puzzle and a 250-piece puzzle. Each tube consists of 3 parts. Same number of mounts as the Westins setup, but there were so many other parts to deal with. The gathering was just a joke. and seeing that connecting pipe in the middle at the end of the install was creepy. There were stickers on the steel to align the tubes. they really stick. Removing them from stainless steel was a real problem. Overall, when you compare the price to the looks, it was just a really big mistake. Maybe the tubes root, but I can only assume that the seam between the tubes will eventually corrode and show through. The details added were these spacers made simply to reduce the distance between the steel and the plastic. It made no sense in the design to have those plastic washers instead of just extending the steel another 2 inches. It just didn't make sense. At the same time, why plastic? Why even put something up that can eventually dry out, freeze or something? I just don't use plastic spacers. ok guys My best advice is to go for the extra dollar. Take at least one whole tube. 3 pieces are ugly. And the assembly time had to be increased by at least 30 minutes on each side because of the many additional parts and also because the 3 pieces of pipe are connected to each other. Good luck everyone with your decision.
