UNDER BODY BRACE INSTALLATION
1. Safely raise the vehicle and Unbolt the stock center plate.
NOTE: This is the only stock part that needs to be removed before installation. These
bolts will be used in the installation.
2. Install either side of the under brace by first placing the center mounting
bracket holes where the stock plate was removed from. Use the stock bolts
and the included LARGE washers for this bracket.
NOTE: Do not tighten these bolts yet. Just start the bolts in the holes so that the brace
is supported. This will make it easier to bolt up the other brackets.

already existing. Place the provided spacers between the frame and the
brace as shown. Install the 12mm bolt from the bottom up and make sure to
use the small washers on the head and nut ends.
