Installation & Maintenance Tips

• Bolt-On Design: These steps are designed to bolt to the chassis/jacking point area. While they are a direct fit for stock height vehicles, check for ground clearance if your Bus is significantly lowered.

• Keep the Shine: To maintain the polished look, use a quality aluminum polish once or twice a year to remove road oxidation and keep them looking like new.

• Hardware: Ensure all mounting bolts are tightened to factory specifications during installation and re-check them after the first 50 miles of driving.
