Looking at your pics again I realized that not your front and back brackets are gone. I think if I remember because of the shape of the motor bracket my homemade fix wouldn't work. O gave in when the fronts broke and bought aftermarket. Sorry

I will try my luck this weekend. In case it doesn't go well -- what board did you go with? I want to keep it as stocky as possible.

I think I figured out how to work pictures. I will try to post some later today. The running boards I used were black plastic lighted ones from running board warehouse. Look them up for an expedition. Had to remove and trim some of the stock plastic pieces that trimmed the stock boards.

Do you mean this for Expedition 1997-2006? Will it fit 2003 navi?

Those are the ones. Its a fairly good kit. It fits multiple years so there are different mounting holes in the bracket's. They do bolt on to the frame but you will have to do some minor modification to make it fit perfectly. Its all pretty straight forward and obvious once you start installing them . Took me about 3 hours to do. There is plastic body trim pieces in front and behind your stock board that need to be removed or shaved down. If you got the stock ones down I'm sure these will be no problem. Sorry for lack of specific detail on the modification I did mine last year.

Would you care to share the picture of your install? Did you have to drill any?
