PROCEDURE:

REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION. SIDE STEPS OR RUNNING BOARDS MUST BE REMOVED BEFORE INSTALLATION.
Start installation on the Passenger/Right front of the vehicle. Find the front threaded insert located in between the first pair of holes along the pinch weld, (Figure 2). Installation will use the 1st, 2nd and 4th mounting locations, (Figure 1).
Select the Passenger/Right Front Mounting Bracket, (Figure 3). IMPORTANT: Use the illustration above and Figure 3 to properly identify the Mounting Bracket. Attach the Mounting Bracket to the threaded insert using (1) 8mm x 35mm Hex Bolt, (1) 8mm Lock Washer and (1) 8mm Flat Washer, (Figures 4 & 5). Do not tighten hardware.
Select the Passenger/Right Front Support Bracket. IMPORTANT: Use the illustration above to help identify the correct Support Bracket. Attach the Support Bracket to the pinch weld using (2) 6mm Hex Bolts, (4) 6 mm Flat Washers and (2) 6mm Nylon Lock Nuts, (Figure 6). NOTE: Insert bolts from the outside of the pinch weld and through the Bracket. Attach the Support Bracket to the Mounting Bracket with (1) 10mm Hex Bolt, (2) 10mm Flat Washers and (1) 10mm Nylon Lock Nut, (Figures 7 & 8). Do not tighten hardware.
Move to the 2nd mounting location and locate the threaded insert and pair of holes in the pinch weld, (Figure 9). Repeat Steps 3 & 4 to install the Passenger/Right Center Mounting and Support Brackets, (Figures 3, 10—12). NOTE: The Center and Rear Mounting Brackets look similar but each one is unique. The Center Support Bracket has a hole in the top and a notch on the bottom. The Rear Support Bracket has a notch at the top, (Figure 11). Do not tighten hardware.
Move to the last mounting location on the rocker panel and locate the threaded insert and pair of holes in the pinch weld, (Figure 13). Repeat Steps 3 & 4 to install the Passenger/Right Rear Mounting and Support Brackets, (Figures 3, 11 & 14). Do not tighten hardware.
Select the Passenger/Right Sidebar. Use the illustration above to select the correct Sidebar. Carefully position the Sidebar onto the (3) Mounting Brackets. IMPORTANT: Do not slide, (front to back or rotate), the Sidebar on the Brackets or damage to the finish on the Sidebar may result. Attach the Sidebar to the Mounting Brackets with (6) 8mm x 25mm Combo Bolts, (Figures 15—18). Do not tighten hardware.
Level and adjust the Sidebar and tighten all hardware.
Repeat Steps 2—8 for Driver/Left Sidebar installation.
Do periodic inspections to the installation to make sure that all hardware is secure and tight.

To protect your investment, Do not use any type of polish or wax that may contain abrasives that could damage the finish. Mild soap may be used to clean Sidebar.
