Laid out the boards and checked fitment and happy with how it looks. Marked and drilled the holes on the side boards and sanded everything down lightly with 320 grit. Wiped it all down and started the first coat of stain. Will do a second coat tonight. Plan to get the other side tomorrow. Then the same process for sealer over the top of the stain. So hopefully in 3 more days the boards will be done.

During the drying process I’ll paint hold down straps and get some wet sanding done on the fenders, tailgate and running boards.

Still lots to do but still moving forward!
