Step 1
Carefully place the side bar onto the
mounting brackets. Ensure the outer edge
of the side bar is lined up with the outer
edge of the mounting brackets.
Locate the round slots on the bottom of the
side bar. Insert a black M8 hex bolt into each
slot and slide the pair of bolts to the front
mounting bracket.
Repeat until two hex bolts are positioned for
each mounting bracket. Note: The number
of mounting brackets may vary based on
application.
Step 2
Carefully lift the side bar up and adjust
the bolts as necessary until they are in line
with the slots on the mounting brackets.
Secure the side bar to the brackets using
two black flat washers, lock washers and
M8 hex nuts per mounting bracket.
Snug the hardware, but do not fully tighten.
Step 3
At this time, adjust the side bar
to the desired location.
With the side bar in position, it is recommended
to tighten all brackets to the vehicle first,
followed by the side bar connections.
For recommended torque specifications,
refer to the table on page 1.
Step 4
Repeat all steps for the
passenger side of the vehicle.
Congratulations on the installation of
your new ARIES AdvantEDGE™side bars.
With the side bars installed, periodic
inspections should be performed to ensure
all mounting hardware remains tight.

'Notes and Maintenance' section on the
