PROCEDURE:
1. REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION. TOW HOOKS CANNOT
BE REINSTALLED WITH THIS BULL BAR. NOTE: It may be necessary to remove/relocate front
license plate and license plate bracket. It is not required, but strongly recommended. If local/state
law requires a visible front license plate, a license plate relocation kit is available.
2. Starting at the front of the vehicle, determine if the truck is equipped with or without factory tow
hooks, (Figure 1).
For models without tow hooks:
Select the driver side Frame Bracket. Bolt the Bracket to the (2) outer holes in the frame with
the included (2) 10mm x 35mm Hex Bolts, (4) 10mm Flat Washers, (2) 10mm Lock Washers
and (2) 10mm Hex Nuts, (Figure 2 & 3). Snug the hardware but do not tighten at this time.
Repeat this step for passenger side Frame Mounting Bracket installation
For models with tow hooks:
Remove the (4) hex bolts holding the tow hook to the frame, (Figure 1). Remove the tow hook.
TIP: Removing the inner hex bolts securing each tow hook can be difficult to reach from behind
the bumper, (long socket extensions required). It may be easier to access the (2) hex bolts by
going through the front of the bumper opening and holding the hex nuts in place with an openended wrench, (Figure 2).
Select the driver side Frame Mounting Bracket and bolt it to the (2) outer holes for the tow hook
with the factory hardware or the included (2) 10mm x 35mm Hex Bolts, (4) 10mm Flat Washers,
(2) 10mm Lock Washers and (2) 10mm Hex Nuts, (Figure 2 & 3). Snug the hardware but do not
tighten at this time. Repeat this step for passenger side Frame Mounting Bracket installation.
3. With help, position the Bull Bar up to the outside of the Mounting Brackets. Use the included (4)
10-1.5mm x 35mm Hex Bolts, (4) 10mm Lock Washers, (8) 10mm Flat Washers and (4) 10-
1.5mm Hex Nuts to attach the Bull Bar to the Mounting Brackets, (Figure 4). Snug but do not
tighten hardware.

4. Stand back from the vehicle and check to see that the Bull Bar is centered and level on the vehicle
and adjust as necessary. Once properly adjusted, tighten all hardware.
5. Do periodic inspections to the installation to make sure that all hardware is secure and tight.
To protect your investment, wax this product after installing. Regular waxing is recommended to
add a protective layer over the finish. Do not use any type of polish or wax that may contain abrasives
that could damage the finish.
For stainless steel: Aluminum polish may be used to polish small scratches and scuffs on the finish.
Mild soap may be used also to clean the Bull Bar.
For gloss black finishes: Mild soap may be used to clean the Bull Bar
