To install a step:
1. Before installing the bolts:
• Remove all traces of the original adhesive patch.
• Clean the threads of the bolts with denatured
alcohol or equivalent and allow threads to dry.
• Apply Threadlocker (GM Part No. 12345382, in
Canada 10953489) or equivalent.
2. Install the side step to the vehicle. You may need
someone to assist you in the installation.
3. Install the nuts and bolts for the two inner brackets
first, but do not tighten them.
4. Using a level, make sure the step is level in
relationship to the vehicle. Then, tighten the
inner bracket nuts and bolts.
5. Install the other nuts and bolts. Tighten all nuts and
bolts to 39 lb ft (50 Y ).
Loading Your Vehicle for
Off-Road Driving
There are some important things to remember about
how to load your vehicle.
• The heaviest things should be on the load floor and
forward of your rear axle. Put heavier items in the
rear area, as far forward as you can.
• Be sure the load is secured properly, so driving on
the off-road terrain does not toss things around.
