1. For the proper position of the step, the front edge of the seat while in normal driving position should be in line with the center of the step. For personal preference or to avoid any obstruction underneath body metal, step can be moved left or right.

2. Take a marker or pencil and mark a vertical line that lines up with the front edge of the seat on the pinch weld area of your vehicle. See DIAGRAM A.

3. Assemble the Mounting Brackets to the Step Casting as shown in DIAGRAM D. Hand tighten the hardware only.

4. When positioning the step against the body metal, be sure to avoid all bumps and screws to make sure that the step assembly is against a flat surface.

5. With both Mounting Brackets hand-tightened on the Step Casting, place the entire assembly against the inside of the rocker panel of the vehicle. Line up the center of the step with the center vertical marked line. (Be sure to avoid any bumps or obstructions on body metal.)

6. While holding the entire assembly in place, take a pencil or marker and mark all four outside edges of the Mounting Brackets as shown in DIAGRAM B.

7. Remove the Mounting Brackets from the Step Casting.

8. Place the Mounting Brackets back against the body metal between the marked lines. Use the holes in the Mounting Brackets to mark the holes on the body metal as shown in DIAGRAM B.

9. Center punch the marked hole.

10. Take a 1/8" drill bit and drill out the centered punched holes.

11. Drill out the 1/8” hole with the 5/16” drill bit.

12. After drilling, make sure that all burrs are removed.

13. Take the 5/16” hardware that is provided and securely tighten both Mounting Brackets to the vehicle. See DIAGRAM C.

14. Place the Step Casting inside each Mounting Bracket and use the ¼” hardware provided and securely tighten each Mounting Bracket to the Step Casting. See DIAGRAM D.
