I don’t think the Colorado is high enough really to have steps, but I keep my seat high and I have a bad right hip so stepping up with my left leg definitely helps.
If you lay directly under the step up you can get the first 2 bolts in while still holding it up by just putting a knee on it I watched the first 4 minutes and had it figured thank you by the way
I ended up removing these same exact side steps from my 2016 Colorado and opted for a black rectangular 6 inch wide step bars. The reason is that these OEM side steps as heavy duty as they are, do not protect the rear fenders from paint chips, its a factory design flaw. The rear fenders on any colorado will eventually end up damaged due to the front tires picking up the slightest gravel, sand etc. and damaging the paint..
@@StollNCrew yes, they are longer and wide. They help keep the truck cleaner and i don't have to worry about driving over loose gravel or off road. Its like having a large mud guard for the front tires...
Nerf bars are all pretty much the same to install. My 2022 Colorado Redline edition came with the same bars factory. I'll probably remove them and get some smaller ones or rock slider style like on the ZR2. Trucks looking good 👍 Now you just need a level and remove air dam !
Well I have a ladder rack on the truck and we do construction all year round so I definitely use them all the time for strapping material down but they're not really needed if you're just driving the truck.
Hey 2 questions: 1) Same installation procedure on 2017 GMC CANYON? 2) i bought the steps without the bolts and clips. What are the bolt sizes and part number for the clips & bolt only if you have them. Thanks!
Honestly can't answer either of those. I'm sure it's the same or very similar for the Canyon but can't confirm. And I don't know the size or part #s. Sorry!
Would it have been easier to put the brackets on the truck first? Then put the running boards on the brackets. Probably could have been a one man job. Good looking truck.
That is a possibility but the brackets came attached to the steps already. The correct way to do it with one person, which I missed, is to put the four (or at least 2) upper bolts on and hang the steps on those bolts because the upper bracket is open like a hook.
@@StollNCrew That's exactly what I noticed. If you could hang it from the open hooks on both ends then put all the other bolts in. I have a 2018 and will be ordering these very soon.
Hey can you have splash guards on your truck if you install these running boards? Saw a couple videos about installing splash guards that said if you have a certain type of running boards, they will not fit
They are from Chevy, they call them the "off-road" ones. accessories.chevrolet.com/product/crew-cab-3-inch-off-road-assist-steps-in-black-84157007?model=Colorado&modelId=2484&bodyId=22&body=Crew%20Cab%20Pickup&bodyNumDoorsId=5&bodyNumDoors=5&year=2022&make=Chevrolet&categoryId=12062
Here’s a link to these exact side steps. Explains the installation procedure and has bolts, nut and torque specs. ecom-dam.ext.gm.com/products/documents/ISheets_22929624.pdf
@@StollNCrew Ok, that’s what I figured. Do you know the size and thread count of the bolts? I need to purchase some clips for the exact same running boards but they are used and didn’t come with.
Good job, son 🙏 for your video I am going to work on mine too I got the parts already I was figuring out how to put it on, but since I saw your video it’s helps me a lot Thank you, my hero I subscribed you already sir
I bought a 22 Colorado without running boards. I will be installing them myself. Thanks for the installation video!
I got the same model. Keep making the modifications! Excellent

Hope you're enjoying it!
Dude I could not figure out how the clips went in the frame. 😂. Thanks for the video. 😎🤙🤙🤙
Haha glad it helped!

They worked great... Thanks for your video, It helped a lot. Looking forward to see more videos from this channel. Thanks again
Glad to hear! Enjoy them! New videos every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday!
Very helpful, thanks.
Gave me the insentive iI needed to do it myself.
Awesome! Glad I could help!
It looks pretty good. I will be doing mine tonight. Lets hope I can do a finish Like yours. Thank for the video.
It was pretty simple. I'm sure you'll have no issues! Good luck!

Interesting. I'll have to keep an eye on that. The other steps help block road debris from coming up better?

Rokblokz mud flaps fixed the problem of debris being slung on the side from the front tire of my 22 ZR2. Easy install and looks great!

Gonna have to talk to the boss man about all that lol. This is a company truck so I'm not sure he'll want me doing too much to it.
I will try to install them by myself. Getting help is not as easy as installing them!
Hope you were able to get them on!
I thought Rodrigo was going to say BANANA!
Never understood side steps for a truck that isn’t lifted don’t get wrong looks alright just why? When it’s not lifted
Well I have a ladder rack on the truck and we do construction all year round so I definitely use them all the time for strapping material down but they're not really needed if you're just driving the truck.
I do think they provide a bit of rock chip protection, too. And not sure about you guys, but I prefer small ladies :)😂
Does anyone knows if those will fit the2023 model?

How tight do you tighten can you over tighten .

I was kinda of wondering that my self ,??or like I commented use a small floor jack center it and jack it up
@Stoll-N-Crew if you looked there are bolts from the bracket to the bar
Thank you! Basically I'm not the type of person that can do this so I'm going to ask my friend who's pretty vehicle handy to do the work
Hope you were able to get it done and the video helped!
I would use some lock tight just in case.
That's probably a good idea! Ill have to get on that.
What brand did you use for side steps?
They are from our local chevy dealer
Hey can you have splash guards on your truck if you install these running boards? Saw a couple videos about installing splash guards that said if you have a certain type of running boards, they will not fit
That I am unsure of! I'm sure there's a way to make it work though
It will fit
I wish you would have said which running boards they were because I can't find any of them with four brackets on each like that

I've wondered the same, most use 3, likely to be cheap.
What size sockets were used
10 and 13mm
No Locktite?
Nope, it's definitely an option. But we're about a year later and no issues so far!
Anti sieze would be my option. When these steps rust and rot in 5 years, I want them off without 5x the effort.
Does this one fit a 2022 gmc canyon?
Most likely but can't 100% confirm
I would had just used a small floor jack ,pu it under the bar and jack it up onto place
That's definitely an option!
Are the clips needed or can I just use the bolts?
Are you talking about the ones that slide in the hole? They're needed. They have the threads on them for the bolt to fasten to.

@@connorlevandowski8362 ahh I don't sorry! If I come across the paper that came with them I'll let you know but I'm pretty sure I threw it away.
Did you figure it out what size of bolts are ?
does it fit on 2023 Canyon?
I would assume so. I can't confirm it though
Thank you very helpful ❤️
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
What brand is the step?
They are chevy (GM) steps. Got them from the dealership!
How much?
