Pictures of factory nerf bar mount please.

[Nick Mitchell]

Hello, would someone mind posting some pictures of what the mounting(s) looks like on the factory nerf bars (the more details the better). My ST does not have them, but I might buy a set. I saw the project for installed after-market ones, but the factory ones seem to have three attachment places. I looked under the truck today and couldn't quite figure out where it would go. Also, if it wasn't factory installed would the correct holes be there already for a simple install? Thanks!

(Mine is a 2002 if it matters).

I just took my aftermarket ones off. If you look under the trac you'll see three different spots where there is a break in the cladding and two holes in the seam where the break is. About 4-6 inches above that there is a threaded hole where the third attachment point was. You need special washers that are threaded and allow you do put a bolt through those two holes. Any self respecting hardware store can tell you what you need if they don't come with the steps.
