Product Usage Instructions

  1. Remove all contents from the package and check steps for any damage. Also, verify that all components and hardware listed above are included before you begin installation.

  2. Read the installation manual and installation drawing completely. Understand all brackets and bolts before installation.

  3. Begin installation on the passenger side. Align brackets as shown in the installation drawing.

    Lock Washers and two (2) M8 Flat Washers per bracket. Use the appropriate set of holes as indicated in the installation drawing.

  5. Line up mounting points on the step bar with the mounting holes in each bracket.

  7. Adjust the bars front/back and up/down to the desired placement. Once you have the step positioned, tighten until the split lock washer is flat between the bolt head and flat washer. Do not over-tighten.

  8. When all hardware is in place, everything must be tightened according to the provided torque specifications. Repeat these steps for opposite-side installation.

Optional: If you wish to install the Front Armor Plates, follow these steps:

  1. Thoroughly clean the front side of the front step where the Front Armor Plate will attach.
  2. Remove adhesive protection from the Front Armor Plate.
  3. Carefully line up with the front side of the front step. Be careful not to let the side overhang as they could peel off over time.
