Step 1
Remove the four bolts on the top of the bumper
and the two bolts on the underside of the
bumper using a T55 Torx drive.
Step 4
If installing a winch, use the four
backup washers provided in each bolt
location on the inside of the bumper.
With the bumper installed, periodic
inspections should be performed to ensure
all mounting hardware remains tight.
To protect your investment, see the
'Notes and Maintenance' section on
the first page of this instruction manual.
