All the gear was absolutely hell to install. I did the sidesteps with my bro.. it took us 30mins to do with other branded steps but powerful4x4 gear required every type of angle ratchets and spanners to install.. took us over 4hrs.
The brushbars needed special brackets made or they had to be welded on... get this.. to a genuine nissan bar.
I sent the rearbar to get done by Mitchells4x4 TJM brookvale to install and they had it for 2 days and what was ment to be a $800 job ended up being nearly $2k in just labour due to the shitfight it was to get on. Never ever again am i going cheap. I learnt my lesson. Ive heard people say that powerful4x4 had a showroom in which their bars would fall off their vehicles in the showroom. Ive had bugger all repair bills.

No Offence bro, Iv'e been looking at their rear bars myself
so just trying to wrap the old sponge around it.
Fitting a rear bar can be such a pain and time consuming, it "should" only be remove & refit.
Could it be, other motives at play maybe, just maybe.
Store you took it to, sells it own brand correct.
And bars fall off in a show room.
Could it be, A bar fell off a display stand in the show room.
IF IT'S NOT A NISSAN.
THEN IT'S A COMPROMISE

No offense taken. As i said me and my bro have installed sidesteps previously and been a quick easy job. These werent. You are right about the store trying to sell their own type. TJM brand of course. Ive only ever read about their gear falling off cars in the showroom. May not be true. It is the internet after all. I will tell you this.. the locking pins that hold the arms out are shit. Ive spent 2hrs with a mate trying to get them unlocked after the first time i used it. Im too worried to lock them in incase they ^%$# up again. In my honest opinion.. their products are shit.

So how much did it cost to fit the portals?
My advice is: not to follow my advice.
