STEP 2
Starting at the Driver Side Front of the vehicle, remove the
sealing tape covering the factory holes in the side of the inner
panel, if equipped, (Fig 1).
STEP 1
Install (4) Pedals onto the step bars with (24) M8X1.25-25mm
Hex Bolts, (24) M8 Large Flat Washers and (24) M8 Lock
Washers.
IMPORTANT: Don’t hit the pedal with any metal hummer with-
in pedal installation, or the pedal will be damaged.
The instruction here is for your reference only. We strongly
recommend the professional installer for best result. We are
not responsible for any damage caused by the installation.

(6) M8 Large Flat Washers
(6) M8 Lock Washers
STEP 3
Determine the correct procedure to attach the Driver Front
Mounting Bracket (DFM) for your model/year:
Models without factory threaded inserts in body panel:
Partially thread (1) M8X1.25-30mm Hex Bolt into the threaded
end of (1) M8 Bolt/Nut Plate, (Fig 2). Thread the hex bolt in
until it is flush with the welded nut, (Fig 3). Use the hex bolt as
a handle and insert the Bolt/Nut Plate into the oval hole, (Fig
4). Feed the threaded bolt on the plate through one of the hex
shaped factory holes. Thread (1) M8 Plastic Washer onto the
threaded end and down tight against the body panel, (Fig 5).
NOTE: The Plastic washer is designed to keep the Bolt/Nut
Plate from falling into the body panel.

Plate until the threaded nut lines up with the remaining hole in
the Mounting Bracket and body panel, Do not fully tighten hard-
ware at this time.

Plate into the oval hole and feed the threaded end out either
factory hex shaped hole. IMPORTANT: Do not let go of the hex
bolt until after Plastic Washer has been threaded onto bolt (Fig
5).
