Step 1B - Vans without factory studs
Starting on the driver side, locate
the front bracket mounting location.
(See figure 2 on the last page of the manual).
From the underside of the plastic
rocker molding, use a flathead screwdriver
to release the bottom push pins.
NOTICE
Plastic trim clips are single use only.
DO NOT REMOVE. Only release
the bottom push pins. Use a putty
knife to lightly pry the trim away
from the rocker panel if clearance is needed.
Locate the mounting location for the
first bracket and mark the locations for
each mouning hole. Using a 3/32" drill bit,
drill a pilot hole in each of the marked spots.
Enlarge with a 3/8" drill bit.
Slide two M8 clip nuts over the lower set of
holes in the pinch weld and insert the 3.75"
U-bolt through the upper set of drilled holes.
Secure the U-bolt with the bolt retainers and
slide two black spacers on the U-bolt followed
by the mounting bracket. Secure the bracket
with two M8 nuts on the studs and two 5/16"
lock washers and two M8 bolts in the clip nuts.
Snug the hardware,
but do not fully tighten.
Step 1
Note: For vans without
factory studs skip to Step 1B.
Starting on the driver side, locate
the front bracket mounting location.
For vans with factory studs, slide a 1/4" spacer
on each of the studs. Place the front bracket
on the studs and secure with two M8 flange
nuts on the studs and two 5/16" thread cutting
bolts into the factory holes on the bottom of the
rocker panel.
