Looking at the pdf from their install instructions they should bolt up basically the same as ours on the stock running boards. Only thing I will find out when I get mine off is if the brackets on the RBPs are long enough and formed in the same config. If they are I will most likely have to drill my own holes in the pinch weld and up on the wall. I say that but have never really looked at the Tahoe to see if they look similar to the 1500s for mounting these up. The bracket to the right are the ones I am thinking I may have to fab up or buy from RBP, if I even need them. They seem to be there to help support weight. These steps are at least 40lbs each. If I have to do some major work on the steps it will be a good month or so till I can get these bolted up. Ill try and keep yall updated. If I can get this done ill also try and get some good pics of the work I did if anyone ever comes across a set like I did for a good price.

Your bolting to the frame so if the brackets reach the frame you can make holes and tap them or look for the holes with rubber grommets in them and use the clips that are threaded on one side. Either way shouldn't be to hard if the brackets track the frame. Should look great. Follow up with how it went and pictures of it done.

Some bolt to frame but the factory boards on our trucks are right to the body and some diff boards on pickups use the body mounts

These will bolt to the body just like the 1500 had them installed before. RBP doesn't make these to fit the Tahoe or at least that's what their website says. But I don't see why they wouldn't when they basically mount the same way as out factory boards. I took a glance under the Tahoe today and it seems that it is almost the exact same as the 1500s so I think this may be pretty fairly easy. Good thing I have don't many install of nerf bars and other running boards before.
@Galante damn I was hoping that I would be the first. O well we can all be dreamers. Still will for sure look good. And you post that pit saying it will look good on my white body, but I was just looking at them today thinking, uhmm they have some small dings and scratches maybe that means I should paint to match lol.
