94-96 F-series & Bronco Cab Steps (Running Boards F1TZ16450AK) (Original kit: F3TZ-16450-L) ERROR: The L bracket #7 in the Bronco inset (for the quarter panel) is NOT the same PN as the front one (also marked #7). The (Bronco only) rear bracket (F4TZ16488A) has 2 anti-spin tabs; the front (F2T316C078AB) has only 1. The same bracket is used (in each case) for Left & Right. ![]() NOT CALLED OUT: foam self-adhesive weatherstrip (F2TZ16536B) on top edge of step (#3) Installation & Alignment: 1) Install the step assembly (#3) onto the bracket (#5) using 2 nuts (#4, 13mm hex) 2) Install bracket (#7, x2 for Bronco) loosely 3) Position the step & bracket below the body; install 4 rocker bolts (#1, 10mm hex) loosely) 4) Install 2 inboard bolts (#6, 10mm hex) loosely 5) Raise step so its top edge contacts the bottom lip of the rocker/fender/quarter; align the front curve of the step with the front wheel arch; tighten 4 rocker bolts 6) Push the step inboard so its outboard edge aligns with the lowest body line; tighten 2 inboard bolts 7) Install 2 tab bolts (#2, 8mm hex) and bracket screw (#8, 5.5mm hex, x2 for Bronco) and tighten The factory bracket is made of thin-walled tubing, so it collects water & mud, and rusts out. It's also very susceptible to damage. The factory bracket #5 without anything attached weighs ~5lbs; I'm not sure how much the $500 reproduction version weighs (but it won't work if your steps' long studs are rusted off); mine weighs 13.5 lbs.

ACTION: Install running boards to either the body OR the frame; NEVER to both unless the mounting system uses isolated mounts. A manufacturer's instruction to attach running boards to both body and frame should be immediately questioned because such action provides a direct path from chassis to body for road vibration and noise.
