Thread: 91 Hi lux wof issue

So, a mate has a 91 Hilux, owned by him from new and covered 880 000 (not a typo).
The old girl has nothing but original parts that were added as part of original purchase by main dealer, and has flown through every wof.....until last week.
Garage that did the latest wof inspection have told my mate that the running boards are not legal as they are welded on, and that he will have to cut them off and re-fit using bolts.
Remember, these are factory fitted from new and have not been an issue since 1991.

This seems rather strange to say the least. Any thoughts ??
