Installation Warning

This SKU is fitment-specific to the 2021–2026 F-150 14th generation platform and 2022–2026 Lightning. Do not install on 2020 or earlier F-150 (13th gen) — rear frame mounting points are incompatible. Raptor and Raptor R models are not compatible due to a different rear frame profile. Verify clearance with aftermarket rear bumpers, rear armor, tow sensor brackets, and trailer hitch receivers before ordering. Lightning buyers should confirm Pro Power Onboard and tow sensor bracket clearance before installation. Once installed, the unit is non-returnable.

Can you confirm your F-150 is a 2021–2026 14th generation or Lightning (not a Raptor or 2020 and earlier), and are you running any aftermarket rear bumper or armor that could affect step mounting clearance?
