How does the surface treatment help against rust and wear?

The hardware undergoes a Dacromet coating process — a proven industrial finish that reduces corrosion and enhances long-term durability. Compared to plain paint or untreated steel, Dacromet provides a bonded inorganic layer that resists salt, moisture and road chemicals.

• Reduces rust formation on brackets and bolts
• Provides long-lasting protection in harsh environments
• Maintains hardware fit and function over time
• Better than simple powder-coating for underbody components

What is the kit made of and how reliable is it?

The set uses high-strength tubular steel engineered to resist bending and fatigue under regular use. Components are manufactured to meet the stresses of stepping loads and road vibration, so they hold up better than many low-grade alternatives.

• Premium tubular steel construction for strength
• Designed to withstand repeated stepping and weight
• Not prone to easy deformation or breakage
• Includes a complete set of mounting hardware for replacements

How straightforward is installation for a DIYer?

This mounting kit is intended for straightforward replacement of existing sidestep hardware and uses OEM-compatible attachment points. Basic hand tools and a moderate level of mechanical confidence let most owners complete the swap in a few hours; professional installation is optional if you prefer.

• Supplied as a full set of brackets and fasteners
• Fits factory mounting points (verify OEM number)
• Requires basic tools: wrenches, sockets, torque wrench
• Installation time typically a couple of hours per side

Who is this for: The CHENACC Sidestep Hardware Mounting Kit is for RAM owners who need a reliable replacement or upgrade for sidestep attachments — especially those who face corrosion from road salt or want a sturdier bracket solution. It suits do-it-yourself mechanics, professional installers and fleet managers seeking OEM-compatible fitment and a durable Dacromet finish to extend service life.
