ARB’s engineers have developed side rails and steps to suit Toyota’s recently released Hilux. Summit steps, rails and returns have been developed to suit dual cab and extra wide body and narrow body variants. Separate components have been developed for the single cab narrow body variant too.
Each step section is mounted to the vehicle with three mounts. A combination of M6, M8, M10 and M12 fasteners are used in conjunction with various spacers and nut plates for the step to vehicle mounts.
Fitment of the step sections requires a jack or suitable support for temporary support of the gearbox cross member during fitting.
For those customers who either don’t have an ARB front bar or don’t require a front rail, a return has been developed to enable fitment of a protection step. The design registered clamp offers a neat and practical solution to connect the 60.3mm side rail to the upright of the ARB Summit or Commercial bar. Two spacers are included in the fitting kit to allow for different tube lengths due to variances in bar to chassis tolerances. The ARB branded cover also allows for adjustment in the side rail to upright positioning. The step section is an anodised silver extrusion featuring front to rear ridges for grip. Extrusions are supplied with the front section selected.
Protection & Styling Characteristics:
• Vehicle specific design for the 2016 Toyota Hilux. Specific step, rail and return sections have been developed for the different mix of vehicle bodies available.
• Registered design of styling and design components.
• Durable steel construction for maximum protection.
• Finished in GX30 30% gloss black powder coat
• Template provided for drilling of the central mount bolt (front rail section).
• Anodised extrusion supplied with the front section selected.
• Supplied with corrosion resistant fasteners.
• The step section 4414510 weighs approximately 32kg, front rail 4414520 weighs approximately 20kg, return 4414540 weighs approximately 7kg.
Anodised Step Extrusion:
A silver anodised extruded aluminium section with front to rear ridges is supplied with the front section selected. The extrusion supplied with the front rail section is supplied as separate left and right handed sections. The protection step extrusion has the same front and rear profiles so can be fitted to either side.
Side Rail Clamp:
Prominently featuring the ARB logo and manufactured from 30% reinforced Nylon plastic, the new side rail clamp slides over the side rail, allowing for fitment of aluminium spacers to adjust for varying vehicle chassis to bar fitment tolerances.
