Frequently Asked Questions About Kenworth T600 Frame Steps & Acc.

Will these frame steps fit my specific year Kenworth T600?

Most frame steps are designed to fit Kenworth T600 models from 1994-2007, but mounting points can vary based on your truck's configuration. Extended hood models may require different brackets than standard hoods. We recommend checking your frame rail spacing and comparing it to the product specifications, or contact us with your VIN for exact fitment verification.

What's the difference between aluminum and stainless steel frame steps?

Aluminum steps are lighter (typically 3-5 lbs per step) and resist corrosion well, but may show scratches more easily. Stainless steel steps are heavier (8-12 lbs per step) but offer superior durability and maintain their appearance longer, especially in harsh weather conditions. Both materials support 300-500 lbs depending on the model. Stainless typically costs 30-40% more but requires less maintenance over time.

Do I need special tools or professional installation for frame steps?

Basic installation typically requires a drill with metal bits, socket set, and measuring tape. Most steps mount using existing frame holes or require drilling 2-4 new holes per step. Installation usually takes 1-2 hours per side. Some drivers report alignment challenges with aftermarket bumpers or custom exhaust setups. Professional installation runs $150-300 but ensures proper mounting and weight distribution.

Which finish holds up best against road salt and weather?

Polished stainless steel offers the best long-term protection but requires regular cleaning to maintain shine. Chrome-plated steel looks great initially but can pit and flake after 2-3 winters in salt-heavy regions. Powder-coated aluminum resists corrosion well but may chip from rock impacts. For maximum durability in harsh climates, choose 304-grade stainless steel with welded (not bolted) brackets.

Can I install frame steps if I have aftermarket fuel tanks or toolboxes?

Frame step compatibility depends on your specific setup. Standard 26-inch fuel tanks usually allow normal step installation, but larger 50+ gallon tanks may require extended brackets or relocated mounting points. Underbody toolboxes often conflict with rear step positions. Measure clearances carefully - you need at least 4 inches between the step and any accessories. Some customers successfully use adjustable or offset mounting brackets to work around obstacles.
