2. Hang the driver side front center and rear Mounting Brackets from the body mounts using the factory
hex bolts.NOTE: On some model years, the factory bolt and flat washer cannot be reinstalled due to

over the finish. Do not use any type of polish or wax that may contain abrasives that could damage the finish.
For Polished Finishes: Aluminum polish may be used to polish small scratches and scuffs on the finish. Mild soap may
be used also to clean the Running Board.
