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 Toyota Tacoma (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.

Installation follows this sequence: (1) Locate the three mounting locations on the driver side and remove plastic plugs. (2) Install the front driver-side bracket using M8 bolts, lock washers and flat washers, snugging but not fully tightening. (3) Repeat for middle and rear brackets. (4) Place the driver-side bar on the brackets and secure using M10 bolts and flat washers, snugging but not fully tightening. (5) Adjust and level the side bar. (6) Tighten all brackets to the vehicle first, then the side bar connections. (7) Repeat the entire process on the passenger side.
