Product Description
Ford Windstar 1994-1997 Lower Rocker Kit: 7 Stainless Pieces, Tapered 5.125"-5.875" (TH34340)
TH34340 fits the Ford Windstar minivan, 1994-1997. The record describes a seven-piece polished stainless steel Lower Kit, with a tapered width running from 5.125" to 5.875", and one span note: "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Measured from the bottom up
A Lower Kit works from the opposite direction to an Upper Kit. Its bottom edge sits at the bottom of the door, and the steel rises to its stated width. Nothing in the note ties it to a molding, so the top edge simply lands where the width runs out. To preview it, measure up from the bottom of each door, mark 5.125" and 5.875" with painter's tape, and look at the band between the marks and the door edge. That's roughly where the steel will sit.
A door-count difference on this sheet
The rocker kit's fitment is tagged "3-door, Minivan." The one linked part, PP34340, a four-piece pillar post kit, is tagged "4-door, Minivan" for the same van. The record doesn't explain the difference. If you're ordering both, or if your Windstar's door layout doesn't match the three-door tag, call 877-752-3811 before buying.
Seven pieces
An odd count on a van means the sides won't split evenly, and the data doesn't say which piece goes where. Lay all seven out, compare them with the product photos, and label each liner with its position before cleaning the van.
The taper
The width changes along the pieces, from 5.125" to 5.875". The record doesn't say which end is taller. A dry fit with the liner on, held against the door, shows quickly which way each piece runs.
Material and attachment
The seven tapered Windstar pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel from the USA, fixed to the existing door surface of the 3-door minivan with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the Ford.
Lower doors on an older van
The bottom of a door collects the most grime and stone chips. Wash well, dry, and wipe repeatedly with isopropyl alcohol. Look for bubbling or chipped paint along the very bottom edge; repair it first, since the steel's lower edge sits right there.
Install steps
Line up the bottom edge of each piece with the bottom of the door, peel a few inches of liner, and press. Work along the piece, pulling the liner as you go, then press the whole surface firmly.
Sliding door
If a door slides, run it through its full travel with the piece taped in place before you peel the liner, and check for contact.
Windstar spacing
Measure each piece's position and keep the rest consistent wherever the layouts correspond.
Care
Wait a day before washing. Mild soap and a soft cloth after that, and a non-abrasive metal polish when the shine needs it. Avoid scouring pads.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 7 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.
