2020 Silverado Custom - Installing Running Boards

[SDW917]

Greetings.

I have a 2020 Silverado Custom, and I am looking to install running boards. I have seen several videos on YouTube on how to install them, but they all seem to show that the frame rails with plastic plugs in threaded holes that are conveniently available. I looked under my truck, and guess what? No conveniently threaded holes on the side of the rails, but there are threaded holes on the bottom. The side of the frame rails have large holes (about 3/4") with no threads.

Has anybody done an install like this with the lack of threaded holes on the sides of the frame rails? Do I have to drill new holes, or is there some gizmo I can get to use those 3/4" holes to mount the running board brackets?

Have you found a set you are interested in and checked what the instructions state?

I bought COMNOVA running boards. It was the price/rating combo that attracted me.

I need to open the box and see what the instructions show. I got them as a Christmas present, and here in Michigan, we have had cold rain every day since I got them. The fun of living in the north ...

If you go to their website you may get a better idea on installation. I picked 2020 Silverado Regular cab and it stated no drilling required.
