Page 6: Let's Get Started
LET’S GET STARTED! THE FIRST STEP IS TO ASSEMBLE THE SIDE STEPS. START WITH ONE SIDE, GRABBING BOTH RESPECTIVE WELDMENTS AND SLIDE A BAYONET INTO THE REAR WELDMENT. APPLY BLUE LOCTITE AND LOOSELY THREAD IN TWO 1/4-20 X 0.75 BUTTON HEAD HEX DRIVE SCREWS TO HOLD THE BAYONET IN PLACE, THEN SLIDE THE WELDMENT TOGETHER AS SHOWN IN THE DIAGRAM. - Page 7 NEXT, WE NEED INSTALL THE 3/8-16 X 0.75 BUTTON HEAD HEX DRIVE SCREWS AND 3/8 SCREW BONDED SEALING WASHERS IN THE THREAD HOLES ON THE BOTTOM SIDE OF THE FRONT STEP WELDMENTS TO SEAL THEM FROM WATER AND THE ELEMENTS. THESE SCREWS SHOULD HAVE BLUE LOCTITE APPLIED ON THEM.
- Page 8 DRIVER PASSENGER NOW WE MOVE ON TO MOUNTING THE HANGAR BRACKETS. FIRST, WE NEED TO MARK THE LOCATIONS TO MOUNT THEM. USING THE FRONT JACK POINT AS OUR REFERENCE, LAYOUT THE BRACKET LOCATIONS USING THE DIAGRAM ON THE RIGHT. NOTE THAT THESE DIMENSIONS ARE CENTERLINE 12 13/16 DIMENSIONS.
- Page 9 THE HANGER BRACKETS ARE DESIGNED TO STRADDLE THE PINCH SEAM OF THE VAN. INSERT THEM IN PLACE ACCORDING TO THE PLACEMENT DIAGRAM ON THE PREVIOUS PAGE, AND THEN DRIVE IN FOUR 1/4 X 0.75 HEX HEAD DRILLING SCREWS IN THE LOCATIONS SHOWN. WE RECOMMEND DRILLING PILOT HOLES FOR THE SCREWS THAT GO THROUGH THE PINCH SEAM.
- Page 10 NOW YOU WILL ATTACH THE SIDE STEP ASSEMBLIES TO THE HANGER BRACKETS (PASSENGER SIDE SHOWN). YOU WILL NEED TO SANDWICH A BRACKET SPACER (DOUBLE) BETWEEN EACH HANGER BRACKET AND THE SIDE STEP AS SHOWN BELOW. THESE HELP INCREASE STIFFNESS OF THE STEP DURING USE.
- Page 11 STARTING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, INSTALL 3/8-16 RIVET NUTS INTO THE BODY NEXT. THE LOCATIONS ARE CIRCLED IN THE IMAGE TO THE RIGHT. IT IS ALWAY A GOOD IDEA TO DOUBLE CHECK YOUR RIVET NUTS ONCE INSTALLED TO ENSURE THEY DO NOT FALL OUT OR SPIN. ONCE YOU’VE INSTALLED THE RIVET NUTS, YOU CAN ATTACH THE PASSENGER SIDE BRACES.
- Page 12 THE DRIVER SIDE REQUIRES YOU TO DRILL HOLES TO INSTALL THE RIVET NUTS. BOLT UP YOUR BRACES AS SHOWN IN THE DIAGRAM AND MARK YOUR HOLE LOCATIONS ON THE BODY STRUCTURE BEAMS CIRCLED IN THE IMAGES. MAKE SURE YOUR BRACES ARE FITTED CORRECTLY AND SIT AS FLAT AS POSSIBLE, THEN MARK YOUR HOLE IN THE CENTER OF THE MOUNTING SLOT.
- Page 13 INSERT THE REMAINING 1/4 X 0.75 HEX HEAD DRILLING SCREWS INTO THE UPPER PORTION OF THE HANGER BRACKETS. WE RECOMMEND AT LEAST TWO. THERE ARE 6 HOLES TO ACCOMMODATE THE UNEVEN SURFACE OF THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VAN. ENSURE YOU ARE SCREWING INTO A FLAT FACE FOR THE MOST SECURE ATTACHMENT.
