save the steel it will come in, if your lucky the cleats will be bolted on that take the channels so leave you with clean beams just holes in,get yourself a battery nut gun impact sockets and a universal joint (only use impact) the screws can be a bit difficult use a impact driver with good quality bits to remove screws, by the way you put it in the weather section:scratchhead:
