2019+ Ford Ranger SS18 LED Lightbar Kit Installation Guide
Tools Needed: Flat-head screwdriver or trim removal tool, 21mm sockets
Thank you for your purchase of this custom-designed Stage Series LED Light Bar Kit for
your 2019+ Ford Ranger! This kit utilizes both factory and included hardware to mount
the bracket to the vehicle.
See back for further instructions.
1. If applicable, remove the license plate holder. To do
so, remove the two 10mm screws along the bottom of
the holder. Then using a trim removal tool or at-head
screwdriver, pry up on the two mounting clips located
on the top of the holder to remove it from the vehicle.
Set it aside.
2. Using a trim removal tool or at-head screwdriver,
remove the ve plastic push-rivets from along the top
of the lower grille opening.
3. Remove the ve 10mm bolts along the bottom of
your bumper shown in the picture to the left.
4. Firmly pull out on the lower grille to loosen the
clips shown to the left. Disconnect the connectors
for the integrated sensors to remove the lower
grille completely.

This installation guide is for the following SKUs:
5. Route your wiring harness. We recommend routing
the harness across the front of the engine bay and
down the front passenger side corner to the lower
grille area. This will require the core-support trim panel
to be removed. It is held in place with four plastic
push-rivets and two screws on the intake.
6. Remove the two 21mm frame nuts shown in the
picture to the left on each side of the vehicle.
NOTE: Ensure the brackets are
oriented as shown to the left.
8. Connect your new 18” light bar to the wiring harness. Using the included hardware, install
the light bar onto the brackets. Using the adjustment slots, adjust the lightbar so that it is
centered in the lower grille opening. Once adjusted, tighten the 21mm nuts.
NOTE: We recommend routing the harness before installing the light bar, as it will be dicult
to access the harness once the light bar is installed.
9. Reinstall the lower grille and license plate holder
(if applicable) using the original hardware. Ensure
the mounting clips shown in the image to the left are
properly bent such that they will not push through the
sheet metal backing, that the mounting clip ribs are
pointing rearward such that the plastic panel can be
inserted with minimal interference.
10. Aim your light bar and adjust the nal height to complete the installation.
