Product Description
Nissan D21 Hardbody King Cab 1987-1995 (and 1986 1/2) Full Kit TH87514, 12 Pieces, 5.5"
TH87514 is a twelve-piece polished stainless steel Full Kit for the Nissan D21 Hardbody King Cab pickup, 1987-1995, with the note "fits 1986 1/2 as well." It spans "from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door," listed at 5.5".
King Cab choices
The King Cab has four rocker kits in this group, more than any other D21 tag:
- TH87514: Full Kit, molding to door bottom, 5.5"
- TH87515: Lower Kit, 4.75"
- TH87516: Lower Kit, 3"
- TH87517: Lower Kit, 6.625", noted "Long"
This is the only King Cab kit described as reaching the molding. The record doesn't explain what "Long" means on TH87517 or why it's taller than this Full Kit. Ask us if you're deciding between them.
The 1986 1/2
The fitment includes the 1986 1/2 truck along with 1987-1995. Tell us your build date if you're unsure which you have.
Material
For the King Cab, QAA supplies twelve polished 26 gauge 304 stainless pieces made in the USA, laid over the existing finish with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape; QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without damage.
Measure
Measure from the molding's lower edge to the door bottom at the front and rear of the door. Compare with 5.5".
Prepping older paint
- Wash and rinse the doors and bed side
- Strip wax from the Hardbody with a wax-and-grease remover
- Repair chips, rust or flaking paint first
- Wipe with isopropyl alcohol before fitting
Twelve pieces
The record doesn't say how they divide between door and bed side. Use the photos and label each liner.
Trial fit
Tape each piece between the molding and the door bottom, sight down the side, and open the doors.
Bond
Short liner peels, firm pressure, front to back.
Matching
Keep even spacing across all twelve D21 pieces.
Conditions
Mild, dry and shaded, with warm panels. No washing for a day.
Choosing among the four
Start with the molding. If it is in place and you want the trim to fill the space under it, TH87514 is the King Cab kit described that way. If you would rather leave the molding alone and cover only the lower part of the door, pick a Lower Kit by height: 3" for a narrow strip, 4.75" for a middle height, or 6.625" for the tallest. Measure from the door bottom up to where you want the top edge to sit and compare.
Full Kits for other D21 trucks
The same 5.5" width and twelve-piece count also appear on TH87512, tagged Long Bed, and TH87519, tagged Short Bed. The record doesn't say whether a King Cab is also a Long Bed or Short Bed for these listings. Tell us your cab and bed when you call 877-752-3811, and we will confirm which listing fits.
Hold onto the Hardbody box and liners until the last piece is on.
Do a King Cab door first and check that its top edge runs evenly along the molding before continuing.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full Kit
- Unpack all 12 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
