2009 Ford Escape Bar Side Steps

These bars are sturdy, useful and look great. They took about a week to arrive, but they had to come 3000 miles to get here from Ca. so not too bad. Installation was pretty easy once you figure out what the directions are trying to say. About 15 min per side. Passenger side didn't line up level but was easily remedied with a couple washers. Fortunately the mounting bolt was long enough to handle it. Not sure if this was from design or mfg defect but no real problem
