Great video from Makuloko! I will look for some Fluid Film for the finishing touch. Winter is coming.

Another Albertan here, once it gets to constant below freezing I set the running boards to "out" and leave them like that for winter. As stated above once the ice builds up around the hinges its immobile anyway. I have a good set of mudflaps and so far after 5 years and 190K no visible damage on the running boards from gravel.

And there is a bit of a sequence to getting the boards to stay out, while sitting inside with the door closed, set the boards to "out" first, then to "off" if you just set them to out they will go back in first time you open and close a door.

Yes, I felt kinda dumb while taking them off, even the smallest set of mudflaps will do a lot to help the front hinges. A definite must.

Worked the first few times and they immediately seized the third time I did this.

Cleaned and lubed mine today. But I'm in Texas and don't go out when the ice hits here so they were in pretty good shape. All the same, a little PM never hurt.
