My rusted steps were covered under warranty. The new steps arrived today at no cost to me. It's good to know that there are still companies out there that stand behind their products. There customer service was easy to deal with and extremely friendly.
Did notice some differences in the design of the steps. Most noticeable is the N-Fab logo on the step pad. It is much more "distinguished" compared to my old steps where it just sorta blended in.
Also noticed that the mounting brackets are now a one-piece design that simply has tabs bent on it. The old ones were of a 2-piece welded type bracket.
I think I might have the old ones coated with Rhino Lining or something of that nature and re-sell them.
