PROCEDURE:
1. REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION. FACTORY INSTALLED OR AFTERMARKET "ROCK RAILS," SIDE STEPS OR RUNNING BOARDS MUST BE REMOVED.
2. Start installation toward the front of the passenger side of the vehicle. Determine if the vehicle has an
open floor panel or a threaded hole in the floor panel for the top tab on the Bracket, (Figures 1 - 2). Remove any insulation that may be covering the mounting locations.
3. Select the passenger side front Bracket. VERY IMPORTANT: The 6 Mounting Brackets look very similar. Use the instructions to properly identify the front, center and rear Brackets for either side of the vehicle. Each bracket has been designed for a specific location for proper installation.
a. Vehicles with open mounting location: Insert (1) 10mm Nut Plate into the large square
opening in the floor panel. Line up the threaded nut with the small hole in line with the tab on the Bracket, (Figure 1). Bolt the Bracket to the Nut Plate with (1) 10mm x 35mm Hex Bolt, (1) 10mm Lock Washer and (1) 10mm Flat Washer, (Figure 3A). Do not tighten hardware.
b. Vehicles with factory threaded hole in floor panel: Bolt the tab on the Bracket to the
threaded hole in the floor panel with (1) 8mm x 35mm Hex Bolt, (1) 8mm Lock Washer and (1) 8mm x 28mm OD Large Flat Washer, (Figures 2 & 3A). Do not tighten hardware.
4. Line up the mounting plate on the Bracket with the (2) factory holes in the pinch weld. Bolt the Mounting Bracket to the back of the pinch weld using the included (2) 6mm x 25mm Button Head Allen Bolts, (2)

Mounting Brackets and secure it with the included (6) 8mm x 25mm Hex Bolts, (6) 8mm Lock Washers and (6) 8mm Flat Washers, (Figure 5). NOTE: Mounting cradles on Brackets should be inline and pointing toward the rear of the vehicle for proper installation. Snug all hardware but do not tighten at this time.
7. Adjust and level the Sidebar and tighten all hardware.
8. Repeat Steps 2 - 7 for driver/left Sidebar installation.
9. Do periodic inspections to the installation to make sure that all hardware is secure and tight.
To protect your investment, wax this product after installing. Regular waxing is recommended to add a protective layer over the finish. Do not use any type of polish or wax that may contain abrasives that could damage the finish. For stainless steel: Aluminum polish may be used to polish small scratches and scuffs on the finish. Mild soap may be
used also to clean the Sidebar.
For gloss black finishes: Mild soap may be used to clean Sidebar.
