from below, remove the hardware attaching the bumper cover to the cross member to access the end
of the frame and bracket, (Figure 2).
4. Select the passenger side Top Frame Bracket, (Figure 3A). Remove the top (2) factory hex nuts on the
outside and the single hex nut on the inside attaching the factory bumper bracket to the end of the
frame on the passenger side, (Figure 3B).
5. Slide the U-shaped Bracket over the top of the bumper bracket, down and over the (3) threaded studs,
(Figure 4). If installing from below, carefully pull the bottom of the bumper cover outward and slide the
Bracket up and in position. Use the factory hex nuts to attach the Top Bracket to the bumper bracket.
Snug but do not fully tighten the (3) hex nuts at this time.
6. Repeat Steps 3—5 to install the driver side Top Frame Bracket. IMPORTANT: Installation will require
removal or cutting of plastic air deflector, if equipped, attached to the back of the lower grille, (Figures
5A & 5B). NOTE: Depending year and model, it may be necessary or easier to remove bumper cover
to remove the air deflector from back of lower grille insert.
7. From under the front of the vehicle, remove the (2) factory tow hooks and set aside, (Figures 6 & 7).
Select the passenger side Frame Mounting Bracket, (Figure 8A).
Vehicles with small tow hook: Line up the holes in the tow hook with the slots in the Bracket. Bolt
the tow hook and Bracket to the bottom of the frame using the factory tow hook bolts, (Figure 8B).
Vehicles with large tow hooks: Bolt the passenger/right side Frame Mounting Bracket directly to
the bottom of the frame with the two factory hex bolts. NOTE: Large tow hook cannot be reinstalled,
(Figure 7).
8. Repeat Step 7 to install the driver/left side Frame Mounting Bracket. Leave hardware loose at this time.
9. Select the passenger side Top Bracket, (Figure 9A). Apply the included Adhesive Backed Foam Tape
to the Bracket as needed to protect the grille opening from contact with the Bracket.
10. Slide the Top Bracket in through the opening in the bumper, (Figure 9B). Line up the (2) holes in the
Bracket with the previously installed Frame Bracket, (Figure 10A). Bolt the Top Bracket to the top of
the Frame Bracket with (2) 8mm Hex Bolts, (2) 8mm Lock Washers and (2) 8mm Flat Washers, (Figure
10B). Leave hardware loose at this time.
11. Repeat Steps 9 & 10 to install the driver side Top Bracket.
12. With assistance, place the Grille Guard face down on a clean surface in front of the vehicle. Position
the mounting tabs on the Grille Guard up to the outside of the passenger side Frame Mounting Bracket.
Line up the lower hole in the Bracket with the lower hole in the Grille Guard.
13. Insert (1) 12mm Plastic Washer between the Mounting Bracket and the Grille Guard. Line up the Grille
Guard, Washer and Bracket and bolt together with the included (1) 12mm x 35mm Hex Bolt, (1) 12mm
Lock Washer and (1) 12mm Flat Washer, (Figure 11).
14. Repeat Steps 12—13 to attach the driver side mounting tab to the Bracket. Leave hardware loose.
15. Use the (2) previously installed 12mm Hex Bolts as a hinge. With assistance, carefully rotate the Grille
Guard up to the vehicle, (Figure 11). Line up the two remaining holes in the Mounting Brackets with the
holes in the Grille Guard. Repeat
Steps 13 & 14 to attach the Grille Guard to the Brackets, (Figure 12).
Snug but do not tighten hardware at this time.
16. Next, move to the passenger side Top Bracket installed in Steps 9 & 10. Line up the long slot in the
Top Bracket with the slot in the Grille Guard upright, (Figure 13). Insert (1) 10mm Quick Release Bolt
with Pivot Washer and (1) 10mm Flat Washer through the Grille Guard. Thread (1) 10mm Plastic
Washer part way onto the threads. Slide the Top Bracket over the Quick Release. Thread (1) 10mm
Plastic Washer, (to protect the finish on the Top Bracket), (1) 10mm Flat Washer and (1) 10mm Nylon
Lock Nut, (Figure 13), onto the Quick Release. Do not fully tighten hardware at this time.
17. Repeat Step 16 to attach the driver side Top Bracket to the Grille Guard.
18. Release/loosen the levers on the Quick Release Bolts, (Figure 13), and pull the Grille Guard away from
the vehicle to the "open" position, (Figure 15). NOTE: It may be necessary to slightly loosen the top (2)
12mm Hex Bolts on the Frame Mounting Brackets to move the Grille Guard, (Figure 16). Center and
level the Grille Guard and tighten all hardware including the Frame Mounting Brackets.
19. Adjust the Quick Release Bolt clamping pressure by loosening or tightening the 10mm Nylon Lock
Nuts. See Steps 23—27 for more information. NOTE: Tilt feature only required on 07-13 Tundra and
08-14 Sequoia models. 2014 Tundra model installation can skip to Step 21.
