Is there anything I need to be aware of before I unbolt them?

I'll bear that in mind.

I was thinking more like anything I'm likely to damage or is there something that needs to be put in their place for some reason?

My 2001 Disco has Land Rover "Oasis" side steps.
On a narrow lane I've managed to buckle the driver's side one. I might be able to repair it, but I'm thinking I'll just remove them and leave them off.

Is there anything I need to be aware of before I unbolt them?

I had to take mine to the garage and use a neumatic wrench as they were rusted on to hell and I couldn't get my angle grinder on them due to the angle. You won't damage anything taking them off though. What are you putting in there place?

I've got some rock sliders on mine which served me well in Morocco

I've got a pretty big breaker bar so hopefully that'll do it, I should probably start getting some penetrating oil on there.

I would like to get some rock/tree sliders. I've not looked into the options in any great detail, as I won't be replacing them immediately. Which sliders do you have?
