Notes
Read this instruction carefully before starting installation.
Verify all parts, especially the direction of the step bar and bracket, before installation.
The WIDER side of the step bar faces towards the front.
Use large size brackets for front and center positions, and small size brackets for the rear.
If the step bar is too close to the rocker panel, try adding M6 flat washers before attaching the bracket to the rocker panel.
If any parts are missing or damaged, please take a picture and contact customer support.
