The instruction here is for your reference only. We strongly recommend the
professional installer for best result. We are not responsible for any damage
caused by the installation.
STEP 1
Install (4) Pedals onto the step bars with (24) M8X1.25-25mm Hex Bolts,
(24) M8 Large Flat Washers and (24) M8 Lock Washers.
IMPORTANT: Don’t hit the pedal with any metal hummer within pedal
installation, or the pedal will be damaged.
STEP 2
Starting installation from the driver side front of the vehicle, remove the
sealing tape covering the factory holes on the inner side of body panel if
equipped, (Fig 1).
Note: All Mounting Brackets and Supporting Brackets for Driver Side are
the same.

(No factory holes on pinch weld on some trims)
STEP 3
Determine the correct procedure to attach (1) Driver Front
Mounting Bracket for your model/year:
Models without factory threaded inserts in body panel:
a. Partially thread (1) M8X1.25-30mm Hex Bolt into the threaded end of (1)
M8 Bolt/Nut Plate, (Fig 2). Thread the hex bolt in until it is flush with the
welded nut, (Fig 3). Use the M8 hex bolt as a handle and insert the Bolt/Nut
Plate into the oval hole, (Fig 4). Feed the threaded bolt of the Bolt/Nut
plate through one of the hex shaped factory holes. Thread (1) M8 Plastic
Washer onto the threaded end and down tight against the body panel, (Fig 5).
Then remove the M8 Hex Bolt.
NOTE: The Plastic washer is designed to keep the Bolt/Nut Plate from
falling into the body panel and to aid in bracket installation.
(Fig 2) M8 Bolt/Nut Plate (NOTE: M8 Bolt/Nut Plate is not required on models with threaded inserts on body panel)
(Fig 3) Thread (1) M8X1.25-30mm Hex Bolt into the nut on the plate till the bolt flushes with the nut as shown)
(Fig 4) Use the Hex Bolt as a handle. Insert the Bolt/Nut Plate into the oval hole and feed the threaded end out from either factory hex shaped hole.
(Fig 5) Thread Plastic Washer onto the bolt to hold the Bolt/Nut Plate in
position
Note: Do Not Remove The Hex Bolt Until The M8 Plastic Washer Has Been
Threaded Onto the Welded Bolt.
b. Select (1) Driver Front Mounting Bracket. Attach the mounting bracket to
the welded bolt end of the M8 Bolt/Nut Plate with (1) M8 Large Flat Washer,
(1) M8 Lock Washer and (1) M8X1.25 Hex Nut, (Fig 6A). Do not fully tighten at
this time.
Hold the welded bolt on the M8 Bolt/Nut Plate and rotate the Bolt/Nut Plate
until the welded nut lines up with the remaining hex hole on the body panel.
