SAFARI CANOE RACK
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WAR 878
'07 & UP JK WRANGLER & UNLIMITED
Read all instructions before proceeding.
Due to welding, handling, shipping, etc., the Light Bar legs may need to be “tweaked” slightly (bent in or out) to fit
correctly. A small amount of twisting will not hurt the bar. Be careful not to scratch the paint as you install the legs.
NOTE: The nut plates on some Jeep windshields may come loose when both bolts are removed at the same time.
Loosen both bolts, remove one, install bracket with one bolt, spin out of the way and remove other bolt.
Try to keep one bolt engaged through the windshield at all times.
1. Remove the 2 screws on the upper outboard side of the drivers side windshield hinge. Repeat for the passenger
side hinge as well. New screws are provided.
2. Assemble the front Light Bar by inserting windshield mounting brackets onto the short light bar hoop and
inserting snapper pins to hold in place. The light tabs should be facing forward and the windshield mounting
brackets towards the rear of the vehicle.
3. Remove tail lights.
4. Assemble the rear Light Bar by inserting lower mounting brackets onto the Light Bar hoop and inserting snapper
pins to hold in place. The light tabs should be facing rearward.
5. Position the light bar assembly so that both mounting brackets are even with the top of the body tub and the rear
edge of the rear bracket is approximately 5/8" rearward from vertical body seam. The two pairs of horizontal and
vertical holes should straddle the vertical seam, and the vertical holes should straddle the horizontal seam. Make
sure the rear reinforcing plates fit next to the inside body seams. Mark where the holes are to be drilled and then
remove the rear hoop.
6. On front mounting holes you must drill through the inside panel.
7. Drill inside panel with 1” hole saw, allowing room for socket.
8. Drill 3/8" holes where marked. Reinstall the rear Light Bar assembly. Install provided bolts through the body tub
using the washers on inside of the tub, and tighten loosely. Use of the bottom bolt on the rear mounting brackets
is optional to provide extra rigidity and does require installation of the backing plate and nut from beneath the
vehicle
9. Lights should be installed per the manufacturer’s instructions.
10. Reinstall tail lights
