Absolutely ! It mounts in the jack holes. I just put one of these on
for a customer and it did not install as easily as it indicated on the
instruction sheet. Had to cut and grind the front bracket to get it to fit
properly. The template for drilling the holes were off by 1/4 ".
So........beware ! Check everything twice before drilling, cutting, etc. To
remove after proper installation you will need to remove the two set screws
with the Allen wrench. So......keep the Allen wrench with your onboard tools
or you won't be able to remove the step and access the jack holes.
