The ARIES 204013 3-Inch Round Black Steel Nerf Bars, No-Drill, Fits Select Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra 1500, 2500, 3500 HD (Part #BBDR204013) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The kit includes: 1 driver-side bar, 1 passenger-side bar, 2 front mounting brackets, 2 middle mounting brackets, 2 rear mounting brackets, 2 hex bolts (10mm × 25mm), 2 flat washers (10mm × 37mm × 3mm), 2 lock washers (10mm), 4 hex bolts (12mm × 50mm), 6 hex bolts (12mm × 120mm), 4 spacer washers (1.44"), 10 lock washers (12mm), and 14 flat washers (14mm × 37mm). Note: the 10mm and 12mm × 120mm bolts are only used for 2005 and earlier models; 2006 and newer models reuse existing factory bolts.
The ARIES 204013 is designed for General Motors trucks, including Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra Light Duty and Heavy Duty models. The manual specifically addresses installation on 2010 and 2012 models and earlier. For complete year and model compatibility, contact ARIES Automotive at 877.287.8634 or visit ariesautomotive.com.
No. For 2006 and newer models, you reuse the existing factory body mount bolts. The 10mm × 25mm and 12mm × 120mm bolts included in the kit are only used for 2005 and earlier models.
The manual states that proper tools will improve installation quality and reduce time, but does not provide a specific tool list. Based on the hardware involved (10mm and 12mm bolts and washers), you will need appropriate sockets, wrenches, or a socket set to fit these sizes. For 2010 and later GM trucks, hand tools only—do NOT use impact tools.
The manual does not mention battery disconnection. Since this is a mechanical side bar installation with no electrical components, battery disconnection is not required.
The manual does not mention drilling or any frame modifications. Installation uses existing factory body mount bolts and attachment points.
1. Work on the driver-side first. 2. From underneath, loosen and remove the body mount bolts. 3. Attach the front mounting bracket to the front body mount using one 12mm × 120mm bolt, one 12mm lock washer, and one 12mm flat washer, sandwiching the spacer tube. Snug but do not fully tighten. 4. Attach the rear mounting bracket to the rear body mount the same way. 5. For the middle bracket, insert two 1.44" spacer washers between the bracket and center body mount. 6. Attach the side bar to the front and rear brackets using one 12mm × 50mm bolt, one 12mm lock washer, and one 12mm flat washer for each. Hand tighten. 7. Fasten the middle bracket to the side bar using one 10mm × 25mm bolt and one 10mm flat washer. 8. Adjust the side bar to be level and centered, then tighten all bolts. 9. Repeat for the passenger-side.
No. When attaching the front and rear mounting brackets to the body mounts, snug the hardware but do not fully tighten. Tighten all bolts only after the side bar is adjusted to be level and centered.
Attach the side bar to the front and rear brackets using one 12mm × 50mm bolt, one 12mm lock washer, and one 12mm flat washer for each bracket. Hand tighten initially. Then fasten the middle mounting bracket to the side bar using one 10mm × 25mm bolt and one 10mm flat washer.
Two 1.44" spacer washers are inserted between the middle bracket and the center body mount.
Starting in late 2010, GM changed to a loose nut surrounded by a "Cage Nut" with tabs to prevent loosening, and applied Heavy Duty Loc-tite to body mount bolts. Using impact tools can cause the bolts to seize and the cage nut tabs to bend, allowing the nut to spin freely inside the chassis floorboard. Loosen and re-tighten all body mount bolts by hand only. If bolts become increasingly tight while loosening, retighten and loosen them several times to clear the Loc-tite from the threads.
This indicates Heavy Duty Loc-tite on the bolts. Retighten the bolt, then loosen it again. Repeat this process several times to clear the Loc-tite from the threads. Do not use impact tools. If you continue to experience difficulty, contact ARIES Customer Service at 888-800-2743.
After installation, adjust the side bar so that it is level and centered, then tighten all bolts. Perform periodic inspections to ensure all mounting hardware remains tight. To protect the product, wax after installing. Regular waxing is recommended to add a protective layer over the finish.
Wax the side bars after installation and regularly thereafter to add a protective layer over the finish. For gloss black finishes, mild soap may be used to clean the product. Do not use any type of polish or wax that may contain abrasives, as these could damage the finish.
Periodic inspections should be performed to ensure all mounting hardware remains tight. The manual does not specify an exact interval; regular checks are recommended to maintain proper fitment and safety.
