NOTES ON FACTORY MOUNT POINTS-
5
FVC Side Step Brackets are designed to work with the Ford Factory Side Step mounting locations. Your van may not have come
equipped with Side Steps from the factory, so there may be some dierences in mounting hardware required for your installation.
We have accounted for this and supplied you with enough hardware for any possible configuration. You may need to drill additional
holes for rivet nuts if your van diers. Here are the potential installation hardware situations-
1. Ford factory stud (may need clean up)
2. Ford factory threaded insert (may need clean up)
3. Ford factory unthreaded insert (tapping required)
4. Ford factory pre-existing hole with no insert (requires rivet nut)
5. No hole or stud (drilling required & rivet nut)

STEP 1
1. The first step is to assemble the side steps. Start with one
side, grab both ends of the step and slide a Bayonet into
the Step-Rear. Apply blue loctite and loosely thread in (2)
1/4-20 x 0.75 Button Head Hex Drive Screws to hold the
Bayonet in place, then slide the Step-Front on as shown in
the diagram. Thread the other two screws into the
Bayonet, then attach the Joining Bracket with (2)
3/8-16 x 1 Serrated
Flanged Hex Head
Screws; these
should have blue loctite applied as well. Tighten all
hardware and repeat for the other side. Once completed,
set aside for later.
NOTE-
The joining bracket is used to help with
alignment of the two weldments and can be
clamped in place while tightening to ensure
alignment.

STUDS-
Studs present on the underbody in Location 1 on the
diagrams from page 5 & 6 will likely need the undercoating
to be cleaned o before a fastener can be threaded onto
them. We recommend either using a wire brush with heat
gun (Figure 1) or an M8x1.25 Die (Figure 2) to clean the
threads and prepare them for hardware.
THREADED AND UNTHREADED HOLES-
Holes in Locations 2 & 3 on the underbody will also need
clean up. If the hole is pre-threaded; we recommend
carefully running the provided M8x1.25 Tap through to
clean the threads. Similarly, if the hole is not threaded from
the factory you will need to tap the hole.
NOTE- We highly recommend using a lubricant when
tapping holes. WD40 or motor oil works in a
pinch, but a cutting oil is recommended.

RIVET NUTS-
The next step is to install the rivet nuts in Location 4 on
page 5. There should be holes in the underbody of your
van sized to accept the provided M8X1.25 Rivet Nuts. We
recommend using a pneumatic or electric drill adapter
rivet nut tool for this, although a manual rivet nut tool can
work if you have enough ground clearance.
We like the Astro Tools ADN38 XL model for a drill
adapter. Pictured below for reference.
