ARIES 3" side bars add a custom look and dependable footing to your truck, Jeep or SUV. They feature a classic style, a strong design and non-skid step pads. ARIES nerf bars are all made vehicle-specific for a custom, no-drill fit, and they are available in multiple finish options. This set of nerf bars is constructed from 304 stainless steel with a polished finish. Our 304 stainless steel is a true stainless with high nickel content, offering better corrosion resistance and a long-lasting finish. The polish is a triple application, resulting in a mirror-like shine to complement your vehicle. ARIES 3" round side bars also come with high-strength steel brackets and non-skid step pads. The mounting brackets -- as well as the side bars and step pads -- are custom-designed for specific makes and models to allow the nerf bars to contour to the lines of your vehicle. This ensures easy, no-drill installation and the strength necessary to provide solid footing. This particular set of custom nerf bars fits specific years of the Jeep Wrangler YJ and TJ (see application info to verify fitment). ARIES 3" round side bars also come with non-skid step pads made of polypropylene. These wide, custom-positioned step pads feature a textured pattern and cover a wide portion of the tubes to be more comfortable and high-traction, even in wet conditions.

The ARIES 3" Round Polished Stainless Side Bars, Select Jeep Wrangler YJ, TJ Step Nerf Bar Kit (Part #BBDR35600-2) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The Curt 35600/35600-2 side bar is designed for Jeep Wrangler model years 1987–2006. Installation uses different mounting holes depending on the year: the front hole in the mounting bracket is used for 1997 and newer vehicles, while the rear holes are used for 1987–1995 models.
Each kit includes 4 mount brackets, 4 12mm tube bolts, 4 12mm flat washers, 4 12mm lock washers, and 4 plastic tube end caps. The factory body mount bolts are reused to secure the brackets to the vehicle frame.
No. Do not remove the rubber bushings from the retainers on the vehicle. The mounting brackets attach directly to the bushings using the factory body mount bolts that you remove in the first step.
The longer leg of the step bar goes toward the front of the vehicle. The shorter leg faces the rear.
No. Hand-tighten all bolts initially to allow for adjustment. Only after ensuring that all parts are properly aligned and the tube is level should you tighten all bolts to their final torque specifications.
Two torque values apply: 65 ft-lbs for the tube step to bracket bolts (the bolts connecting the step bar to the mounting brackets), and 45 ft-lbs for the bracket to body bolts (the factory bolts securing the brackets to the vehicle frame).
Yes. The plastic tube end caps are included and must be installed on the step bar before bolting the bar to the mounting brackets.
Four mounting brackets are included: two for the front of the vehicle and two for the rear. Two brackets are used per side (one front, one rear) to support each step bar.
No. The manual instructs you to complete installation of one side (steps 1–4) before repeating the process for the opposite side. You can install one side bar first and the other later if needed.
Before final tightening, ensure that all parts are properly aligned and that the tube is level. This alignment check prevents misalignment and ensures proper fit.
