N-Fab Wheel-Wheel on 2016 Crew Cab. Odd Mounting Hole?

I ordered the N-Fab Wheel-Wheel nerf bars for my 2016 Silverado CC/SB

The body has the pre-threaded mounting holes in it and the front two vertical mounts and parallel mounts lined up perfectly. Also, the rear parallel (to the ground) mount lines up correctly too. However, the hole for the vertical mount is not pre-threaded. It also is way too small for the clip provided to fit in.

 

Has anyone run into this issue? I tightened everything down and it appears stable and such but Im worried that prolonged use will warp the underside at the rear

The rear vertical holes uses the clip once the plastic plug has been removed. Once I took out the plug, there is a 3/4"-7/8" hole, plenty big enough to slide the clip into. I also have a 2016 Silverado CC/SB

Where did you get these and how much?

The vertical bracket on the rear does not line up with a hole that is that large. That's the problem. There is a hole with a plastic cover which is offset by an inch or two but the one where the bracket falls is much too small for the clip to ever enter.

 

ChevyRoofer - I purchased them through Amazon. I got the part number from N-fab's website and ordered through Amazon for 415.

Nvm! Problem solved. The instructions that came with it were hard to make out the picture of, and it looked like it showed something else. I've downloaded the online PDF from N-fab and it's much more clear now.
