PARTS LIST:
PROCEDURE:
1. REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION. CUTTING IS REQUIRED.
2. 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 license plate, a license plate relocation kit is available.
3. Start installation from under the front of the vehicle. Determine if the vehicle is equipped with tow hooks.
Tow Hook equipped vehicles: a. Remove the steel bumper and brackets to access the hardware securing the tow hook to the
frame channel.
b. Remove the factory tow hook from the end of each frame channel, (Figure 1). NOTE: This Bull
Bar is not compatible with tow hooks. c. Cut out the opening in the plastic bumper insert to clear the Mounting Brackets, (Figure 1). d. Reinstall the bumper after tow hooks have been removed and the openings have been cut out
and checked for clearance.
Vehicles without tow hooks: a. Cut out the indented area in both sides of the plastic bumper insert to clear the Brackets as
pictured, (Figures 1 & 2). IMPORTANT: Make several small cuts for best fit. Do not cut through
the top edge of the panel. NOTE: The plastic panel is held in place with several small screws
that are difficult to reach and remove. If you prefer to remove the panel to cut out the openings,
it may be necessary to remove the steel bumper to access all of the small screws and clips.
b. Reinstall the bumper once openings have been cut out and checked for clearance.
4. Select the driver side Mounting Bracket. Insert the Bracket through the opening in the plastic bumper, (Figure 3). Line up the (3) holes in the Bracket with the holes in the end of the frame channel.
5. Select the 10mm Double Bolt Plate, (Figure 4A). Insert the Bolt Plate into the end of the frame channel,
through the holes in the Bracket and out the side of the frame. Secure the Bolt Plate to the Brackets with (2) 10mm Flat Washers, (2) 10mm Lock Washers and (2) 10mm Hex Nuts, (Figure 4B). Leave loose at this time. Repeat this Step to install the 10mm x 35mm Bolt Plate, (Figure 5A), into the remaining hole in the side of the Bracket and frame channel, (Figure 5B).
