Will this mount to my truck's existing rocker-panel points without drilling?

Yes. This bar is designed to use factory mounting locations on the crew cab frame. You won't need to drill new holes.

Does the black finish need any prep or maintenance before installation?

The black powder coat comes ready to bolt on. No sanding or primer needed. Keep it clean with standard car wash and you're fine.

What hardware do I need to complete the install?

Bolts and brackets to connect to your rocker panels are included. Basic hand tools—socket set and a wrench—are all you need for the job.
