Congratulations on your purchase of a quality Dee Zee product.
Dee Zee is recognized as having the highest quality running boards
and accessories on the market today. We have earned this reputation
by offering our customers a product they can be proud to place on their
vehicles. Dee Zee meets all the criteria of manufacturing a custom-fit
product which guarantees it to be the easiest product to install.
NOTICE: This product requires the use of sheet metal screws. To use
these screws, drill a hole as specified in the instructions. Once the hole
has been drilled, tighten the screw firmly into the hole with a wrench.
Caution should be taken not to overtighten the sheet metal screws.
INSTRUCTIONS: Please take time to read all instructions carefully
before beginning installation.
NOTE: After drilling, Dee Zee recommends putting a sealant or rust
inhibitor around all holes drilled into the body panel of the vehicle.
STEP 3
Level the running board and drill three 3/16" holes through the
mudguard and wheel well lip. Attach the mudguard to the wheel
well lip with three 1/4" x 1" sheet metal screws (E).
FRONT
STEP 1
Attach a mudguard to the front of each running board with two
1/4" x 3/4" hex head bolts (J), washers and nuts (N).
BEFORE PROCEEDING: Take the time to check the rocker
panels and wheel wells of your vehicle for protruding bolt heads
that may prevent a flush mounting. Remove these bolts and
replace or discard after installation.
STEP 2
Position the running board to the side of your vehicle so that the
back lip of the running board is aligned to the vehicle's rocker
panel lip and the mudguard is snug against the trailing edge of
the front wheel well.
Level the running board and drill four evenly spaced 1/4" holes
through the running board and the rocker panel lip. Attach the
running board to the rocker panel lip with four 1/4" x 1" carriage
bolts (C), washers and nuts (N).
NOTICE: With the left and right angle brace, add a flat bar by
matching the two holes in each part. Fasten with two 1/4" x
3/4" hex head bolts (J), washers and nuts (N). These L-braces
will be used later in the instruction.
