Product Overview
Drivetech 4x4 DT-SSTEP001 fitting kit delivers vehicle-specific mounting solution for installing Multi Fit Side Steps on Ford Ranger PX series and Mazda BT-50 UP/UR series dual cab utes. Purpose-engineered brackets mount directly to factory chassis points—eliminates guesswork, drilling, or fabrication required with universal mounting kits. Chassis-mounted design provides superior strength compared to body-mounted alternatives—distributes load to structural chassis rails rather than thin body panels. Forward/backward adjustment accommodates door positioning variations and personal preferences—ensures step positioned for comfortable entry/exit. Inward/outward adjustment enables fine-tuning step height and body clearance—optimizes ground clearance while maintaining accessible step height. Black powder coating matches side step finish providing cohesive appearance. Compatible with Ford Ranger PX (2011-2015), PX2 (2015-2018), PX3 (2018-2022) and Mazda BT-50 UP (2011-2015), UR (2015-2020) dual cab models sharing common chassis platform. Requires DT-SSTEPV01 side steps (sold separately). Professional installation recommended.
Key Features
Vehicle-Specific Design for Perfect Fitment: Purpose-engineered for Ford Ranger PX series and Mazda BT-50 UP/UR series ensuring precise fitment to factory mounting points. Eliminates drilling, fabrication, or modifications required with universal kits. Designed around specific chassis geometry, body mounting locations, and door positioning for these models.
Chassis-Mounted for Extra Strength: Brackets mount directly to structural chassis rails providing superior strength and load distribution. Chassis mounting prevents stress on body panels, eliminates body flex, and ensures secure long-term installation. Critical for 300kg working load limit side steps requiring robust mounting.
Dual-Axis Adjustment System: Forward/backward adjustment optimizes step position relative to door openings. Inward/outward adjustment fine-tunes step height and body clearance. Adjustment range accommodates manufacturing tolerances, suspension modifications, or personal preferences. Enables perfect alignment during installation.
Black Powder Coated Finish: Durable powder coating protects brackets from rust and corrosion. Black finish matches side step appearance providing cohesive professional look. Coating withstands harsh Australian conditions including coastal exposure, road salt, and agricultural chemicals.
Complete Hardware Included: Kit includes all mounting hardware for bracket-to-chassis and bracket-to-step connections. Hardware engineered for specific application ensuring correct thread pitch, length, and strength ratings. Eliminates sourcing generic hardware potentially inadequate for load requirements.
Compatible Models: Fits Ford Ranger PX (2011-2015), PX2 (2015-2018), PX3 (2018-2022) dual cab and Mazda BT-50 UP (2011-2015), UR (2015-2020) dual cab. Models share common chassis platform enabling single bracket design. Verify your exact model year before purchasing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will these fit my Ford Ranger or Mazda BT-50?
A: Fits Ford Ranger PX, PX2, PX3 dual cab (2011-2022) and Mazda BT-50 UP, UR dual cab (2011-2020). Does not fit Ford Ranger PY/Raptor (2022+)—use DT-SSTEP006 instead. Does not fit earlier Ranger or BT-50 models before 2011. Dual cab only—not compatible with single cab, super cab, or chassis cab variants.
Q: Do I need any additional parts besides these brackets and the side steps?
A: No additional parts required. Kit includes complete mounting hardware. Requires DT-SSTEPV01 Multi Fit Side Steps (sold separately). Basic hand tools needed for installation (spanners, sockets, torque wrench recommended).
Q: Can I install these myself?
A: Professional installation recommended but experienced DIY installers can complete installation. Requires lifting vehicle safely, accessing chassis mounting points, and torquing hardware to specifications. Installation typically 2-3 hours. Professional installation ensures correct fitment and warranty compliance.
Q: Will these work with my canopy, bull bar, or other accessories?
A: Brackets designed to work with most aftermarket accessories. Chassis mounting typically doesn't interfere with canopies, bull bars, tow bars, or underbody protection. Check clearance with low-profile or custom accessories. Consult installer if concerned about specific accessory compatibility.
Q: What's the difference between chassis-mounted and body-mounted brackets?
A: Chassis-mounted brackets bolt to structural chassis rails providing superior strength and load distribution. Body-mounted brackets attach to thin body panels prone to flexing, stress cracks, or loosening over time. Chassis mounting essential for heavy-duty steps with 300kg working load limit.
