Hello

Just a quick queation

I have  51 reg TD5 with side runners/foot rests, And I was wondering is it a big/awkward job to take them off.

Many thanks

the good fortune to run into the ones I do,
and the eyesight to tell the difference.

No, just drive over some big rocks and off they come :lol:

Probably bolted tot he chassis outrigger, so cut the bolts off.

As has already been said, fairly easy to take off as they just unbolt - but dose the nuts & bolts with WD40 or similar several times (over several days) before you try and undo them........as it's damn tricky getting the grinder in there - I used a nut-splitter on one of mine in the end  :roll:
