I know, I know it's been posted before. But we know how well the search function works...

Trying to remove the stock rails. Before I start ripping stuff apart and cause irreversible damage.

IIRC the side pieces pop off and the rails are held on by 2 bolts front and back??? TIA

Yeah, the inside plastic pieces pop off and there are two bolts on each end. There is a write-up over on KJCountry that shows what the front end looks like inside so you'll have an idea of what you need to do (2nd picture down).

Danke!!! Thats what I thought, but they didn't pop right off, didn't want to force em and be wrong. Thought I would double check. Thanks again.

thought it was the outside pieces that poped off, at least thats the way mine were and as far as searching just look back last week :shock:

Mine were outside pieces as well... No worries, just needed clarification before I started prying. The roof has two coats of bedliner on it now, a third in the AM, plus touch up, and a bunch of other little projects...

Yes, that is correct. I was looking at the first pic Bennett had and my mind made the connection that the second one was of the same location. But it all came off so I'll just skulk away with a pink face :oops:
