nerf bars

will the nerf bars off of one f150 mount up to another without any drilling? i am going to buy some off of another single cab owner and was curious if i would have to make any new holes, or if they are already there.

thanks in advance, wendall

I bought a Westin Platium series (Stainless Steel base) Chrome Step bar for my F150 03 Scab. The instructions were for the 97-03 model year. In the instructions there was one slight difference for the 97 year (a different metal brace). There was no drilling required. Took me (a non mechanic type) bout 90 minutes for the drivers side and then about 20 minutes for the passenger side to install (obviously once I understood the process it was a piece of cake).

It would seem that any of the step bars that were initially no drill for the 97-03 model year should lash up just fine with no drilling.
