LUVERNE MegaStep 6-1/2" running boards are the ultimate combination of style and functionality. They have 5" wide treads that extend the full length of the side steps, and they feature a strong, lightweight aluminum core with a stainless steel trim for a bright, clean accent. MegaStep running boards mount easily with vehicle-specific brackets, pre-installed fasteners and an adjustable design to perfectly fit your unique vehicle. LUVERNE MegaSteps are designed to offer the best features from a variety of side accessory options. Their non-skid rubber treads cover the entire topside of the boards, giving them the functionality and convenience of a running board. However, unlike most running boards, MegaSteps are styled after the popular look of many nerf bars. This makes them a unique and useful extension of your vehicle. To give MegaStep running boards an even greater advantage over other side steps, they are built to outlast the elements. We construct them with a strong, lightweight aluminum base that naturally resists rust, and we finish them with a high-polish stainless steel trim. The trim is a heavy-duty, 18-gauge stainless steel to make it more than just a fancy accent, and its highly polished finish gives the running boards a bright, long-lasting shine. Installation of LUVERNE MegaStep running boards is easy and customizable. The boards come with pre-installed fasteners and attach using high-strength, vehicle-specific mounting brackets. They are also uniquely designed to be adjustable inward, outward, forward or backward, giving you complete freedom to position the steps wherever you want them. This particular set of running boards is designed to fit specific years of the Nissan NV1500, NV2500 and NV3500 (see application info to verify fitment). Brackets for these running boards are included but ship separately.
LUVERNE MegaStep 6-1/2" running boards are the ultimate combination of style and functionality, featuring 5" wide rubber treads that extend the full length of the side steps for dependable, non-skid traction wherever the road takes you.
LUVERNE has manufactured truck accessories in the United States since 1963, specialising in grille guards, running boards, side steps and mud guards for pickups, commercial vans and SUVs. Products are built primarily from stainless steel, aluminium and mild steel, with model-specific mounting kits that use existing frame locations for a bolt-on installation.
LUVERNE has been manufacturing automotive accessories in the United States since 1963, and six decades of continuous production have made it a nationally recognised name in the truck accessory market. Now a Lippert brand, it concentrates on a defined set of products rather than spreading across the whole aftermarket: front-end protection, step access and spray protection for pickup trucks, commercial vans and sport utility vehicles.
Step products are the largest part of the catalog and the range is unusually deep, because the right step depends on the vehicle's ride height, the width of the rocker panel and how often people get in and out. The O-Mega II six-inch oval steps give a wide, flat standing surface in polished stainless or black powder coat, while the Regal 7 seven-inch oval steps go wider still for full-size crew cabs and lifted trucks. The broader running board and side bar range covers round tube, oval and boxed profiles across cab configurations, with treads positioned at the door openings where they are used.
Grille guards protect the front end against impacts, brush and road debris, built in tubular stainless or steel with model-specific brackets that tie into factory frame mounting points. Because the fit is engineered per vehicle, installation is a bolt-on job that does not require drilling or cutting on most applications.
Rounding out the line, LUVERNE mud guards and mud flaps shield rocker panels, paint and following vehicles from stones and road spray, in widths matched to the tyre and fender they sit behind. Material choice runs through everything the brand does: stainless steel where appearance and corrosion resistance matter most, aluminium where weight is the priority, and mild steel with protective coating where strength and value lead. Customers include contractors, fleet operators, van upfitters and truck owners.

Yes, model 571164 Mega Step Brackets are designed for 2011 Nissan NV vans. Grip Step Brackets model 401164 are also available for the same vehicle. Both bracket types use the same mounting hardware and installation procedure.
Both models are designed for 2011 Nissan NV vans and use identical mounting brackets and installation procedures. The difference is in the step assembly itself (not detailed in the bracket installation manual). You must review the separate installation instructions included with your specific step assembly for details on the step design and attachment.
The bracket package includes: 6 mounting brackets (either part 552021 for Mega Steps or 552131 for Grip Steps), 6 hex head cap bolts 5/16-18 UNC × 1.00" stainless steel (part 106997), 12 flat washers 5/16" stainless steel (part 106998), 6 serrated flange nuts 5/16-18 stainless steel (part 106996), and 12 self-tapping screws 1/4" × 3/4" zinc-plated (part 100004).
The manual requires a drill with 3/8" and 5/32" drill bits. A wrench or socket set to tighten 5/16" bolts and nuts is also needed. The manual does not specify additional tools such as a torque wrench, although one is recommended to achieve the 20 lb-ft torque specification accurately.
Yes. The manual explicitly states: 'READ INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY AND CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL REQUIRED PARTS (LISTED ON SERVICE PARTS LIST) ARE ON HAND BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION.' Verify all parts are present before beginning work.
Yes, drilling is required. You must drill two 3/8" diameter holes through the pinch weld on the driver side and four 3/8" diameter holes through the pinch weld on the passenger side for the bottom mounting holes. Additionally, you must drill two 5/32" holes through the inner rocker panel for each bracket to accommodate self-tapping screws. Hole locations are measured from the front wheel well opening as shown in the installation figures.
Two brackets are installed on the driver side. Each bracket is secured with one 5/16-18 × 1.0" bolt, one flange nut, and two washers at the pinch weld, plus two self-tapping screws through the inner rocker panel.
Four brackets are installed on the passenger side. Each bracket is secured with one 5/16-18 × 1.0" bolt, one flange nut, and two washers at the pinch weld, plus two self-tapping screws through the inner rocker panel.
1. Drill 3/8" holes through the pinch weld (driver side: 2 holes; passenger side: 4 holes) at locations marked from the front wheel well opening. 2. Hold brackets in place and secure with 5/16-18 × 1.0" bolts, flange nuts, and washers; tighten until level with the vehicle. 3. Use the top holes in each bracket as a guide and drill 5/32" holes through the inner rocker panel. 4. Install 1/4" × 3/4" self-tapping screws without over-tightening. 5. Torque all 5/16" nuts and bolts to 20 lb-ft. 6. Review and follow the separate step assembly installation instructions.
All 5/16" nuts and bolts must be torqued to 20 lb-ft.
Yes. The manual states to 'TIGHTEN THESE FASTENERS DOWN ENSURING THAT THEY ARE LEVEL WITH THE VEHICLE.' This applies to both driver and passenger side installations.
Each bracket is secured to the pinch weld with one 5/16-18 UNC × 1.00" hex head cap bolt (stainless steel), one 5/16-18 serrated flange nut (stainless steel), and two 5/16" flat washers (stainless steel). These fasteners are torqued to 20 lb-ft.
Two 1/4" × 3/4" self-tapping screws (zinc-plated) are installed through the top holes of each bracket into the inner rocker panel. The manual cautions to use care not to over-tighten these screws.
No. The manual explicitly states 'USE CARE NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN' when installing the 1/4" × 3/4" self-tapping screws into the inner rocker panel. Over-tightening can damage the rocker panel or strip the fastener.
The manual provides figures (FIG. 1 for driver side and FIG. 3 for passenger side) that show hole locations measured from the front wheel well opening. However, the specific measurements are not included in the text instructions provided. Refer to these figures in your printed manual for exact hole placement.
Once the brackets are secured to the pinch weld and confirmed to be level, the top holes in each bracket serve as a guide to ensure the 5/32" rocker panel holes are drilled in the correct location and alignment for the self-tapping screws.
Yes. The manual states: 'PLEASE REVIEW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN YOUR STEP ASSEMBLY FOR SPECIFIC DETAILS.' The bracket installation is only the first part; you must follow the separate step assembly instructions to complete the installation.
Yes, model 571164 is designed specifically for 2011 Nissan NV vans. Grip Step Brackets model 401164 are also available for the same vehicle.
Yes. You must drill two 3/8" holes on the driver side and four 3/8" holes on the passenger side through the pinch weld, plus 5/32" holes through the inner rocker panel for each bracket.
All 5/16" nuts and bolts must be torqued to 20 lb-ft.
You need a drill with 3/8" and 5/32" drill bits, and a wrench or socket to tighten 5/16" bolts and nuts. A torque wrench is recommended to achieve the 20 lb-ft specification.
Driver side: 2 brackets. Passenger side: 4 brackets. Total: 6 brackets.
No. The manual cautions to 'USE CARE NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN' the 1/4" × 3/4" self-tapping screws in the rocker panel.
