Park level, engage parking brake and, if needed, support vehicle safely. Loosely mount brackets to chassis points, align both sides before final torque. Attach side step, verify door & bumper clearances, then torque per manual. Re-check fasteners after initial road use (100 miles). Tools commonly required: ratchet, metric sockets, torque wrench, hex keys and prying tool. To keep finishes pristine: rinse away road salt and grit regularly, inspect mounting points every 3 months, and use mild automotive cleaners on powder-coated or textured surfaces.Avoid steel brushes on powder-coated areas. Fitment Checklist: Confirm Year / Make / Model / Trim; check for aftermarket running boards/rock sliders that may block mounting points; verify cab configuration (single/double/crew).
