I looked at BullyThis is what i put under the side slider door. Works very well.
I thought about putting 1 under the rear, but i rarely get in and out of the back.
I will get another 1 for the drivers door soon.
Thanks, I might lower the side door step a little. I like the way yours gives boot clearance. I think in between what you did and what I did would be perfect for me. What part of the van did you mount to? My bracket was vertical on the inside of that thick "rail" area. I too used rivnuts.Yep.. same Carr as mine.. except i wanted mine lower to ease in stepping up. Plus they still clear all curbs that come close to it. Good job!
Can you post some pics of how you mounted it? Thanks!Thanks, I might lower the side door step a little. I like the way yours gives boot clearance.

i went straight to the bottom of the same spot that yours went up the sides. It splits the difference between the floor and n the street really sweet.Thanks, I might lower the side door step a little. I like the way yours gives boot clearance.

Thanks!Hope this helps
I had to practice using that rivnut tool. Never used 1 before so i sacrificed a few till i got em tight. AND, i STILL dont got it down yet!! Lol.. any hints?teicks and tips on the rivnut tool before i tackle the drivers door?
With my hitch step set out all the way, it beeps. When using it one hole inboard of full out, it does not beep.They all look nice but what about the backup alarm?
Mine goes off for a curb until it goes under the bumper.
With a rear step it should be going off all the time.
The quality of the rivnuts makes a big difference. The ones that come with the Astro tool are excellent but there is also a lot of junk out there. Pay attention to hole size, material thickness, top flange size, etc. I've also found the ones with knerled sides work better. Plus make sure you have the tool set for maximum compression when you use it.Thanks!
David, do you have a part number for those steps?Rear step- GoRhino. Love it. I use both steps often depending on what I am lifting in and out of the van. Side steps- Carr Super Hoop. Large one on the cargo door, small ones on the front. I kept them tight for ground clearance. I like the side steps but they are not as much of an asset as the rear. All Amazon.
Can you post some pics of how you mounted it? Thanks!
