 If installing Westin step boards on vehicles equipped with factory step boards, the existing factory hardware can be used. The 

mount brackets will be placed over the mounting stud protruding from the rocker panel, and the factory nuts can be reused.  It is 
strongly recommended to install the Sure Grip Gap Strip for these vehicle applications.

Locate the pair of holes on the bottom of the rocker panel and the square hole next to the round hole on the bottom of the floor 

pan.  

SEE FIGURE 1.

STEP 3.

Insert extruded “u” nut through square hole in vehicle floor plan so it is positioned over the round hole.  

SEE FIGURE 1.
