Installing the Bar

1. Remove skid plate. Then remove front skid plate from mounting brackets.

bolt from each tow hook. CAUTION - Rear bolt hole in tow hook is key hole slotted and could fall
off if pushed rearward during bar install.

3. The rear tow hook bolts should be loose enough to allow the light bar brackets to slide between
the frame and the tow hook.

4. Slide the light bar brackets between the
frame and tow hooks. Loosely reinstall the
forward tow hook bolts, but do not tighten at
this time.

5. Open the hood to gain access to the license
plate bolt holes.

6. Using the supplied 1/4” hardware, fasten
the center mount of the light bar to the
license plate holes in the bumper. NOTE - If
using a front license plate, you must
elongate each of the holes in the license
plate outwardly approximately 1/8 inch and
discard the OE plastic license plate holder.
Start one thin flat washer on each of the bolts, place the bolts through the light bar brackets and
into the bumper. Install a thick flat washer and nut on each of the bolts from the back side.

7. Center the light bar on the truck and tighten the center bolts and then the tow hook bolts.

8. Replace the skid plate and tighten the hardware.

You’re DONE! - - - - - - - Install your KC lights and enjoy.
