injury or death to you or to others involved. You are responsible for assembling and securing Flatline
Van Co products to your vehicle, checking the mounting points and attachments prior to use, and
regularly inspecting the products for wear and or damage. We always recommend you use a
professional to install any aftermarket accessories to your vehicle. If you have no mechanical
experience and are not thoroughly familiar with the installation procedures, you must have the
product installed by a professional installer or other qualified persons. The responsibility is yours
and must be taken seriously for everyone's safety.

LET’S GET STARTED!
1. FIRST STEP IS TO REMOVE THE FACTORY BOLTS ON THE STEP PORTION OF
YOUR BUMPER. SOMETIMES THERE ARE PLASTIC CAPS INSTALLED, AND
THESE ARE EASILY REMOVED WITH A FLATHEAD SCREWDRIVER. THE BOLTS
THEMSELVES REQUIRE A T45 BIT TO REMOVE.
2. NEXT, SOME VANS COME EQUIPPED WITH THE EUROPEAN STYLE LICENSE
PLATE COVER, IF THIS IS THE CASE FOR YOU, IT WILL NEED TO BE REMOVED.
NOTE- WE HAVE SEEN SOME MOUNT THE NUDGE BAR WITHOUT
REMOVING THE EURO STYLE PLATE MOUNT, BUT IT CAN INTERFERE
WITH PARK SENSORS IF YOUR VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH THEM.

3. NOW TAKE THE NUDGE BAR AND REST IT ON THE FRONT STEP AREA. LINE
UP THE MOUNTING SLOTS AND THREAD IN THE HARDWARE SHOWN BELOW.
THE LARGE WASHER GOES UNDERNEATH THE HEAD OF THE M8 BOLT.
THREAD THIS FINGER TIGHT.
NOTE- THIS IS A TWO HANDED OPERATION THAT IS NOT TOO TRICKY.
WE FIND IT BEST TO HOLD THE NUDGE BAR DOWN WITH ONE HAND
ON THE FRONT TUBE BY THE MOUNTING BRACKET AND USE YOUR
OTHER HAND TO THREAD THE BOLTS IN.
WE RECOMMEND APPLYING BLUE LOCTITE TO THE BOLTS BEFORE
INSERTING THEM.
4. NEXT, HOLD THE NUDGE BAR TIGHT AGAINST THE BUMPER AND ENSURE IT
IS CENTERED, THEN TIGHTEN THE HARDWARE.
NOTE- THERE ARE TWO HOLES BEHIND THE LICENSE PLATE
BRACKET FOR THE USE OF TWO SELF TAPPING SCREWS
(NOT INCLUDED) INTO THE BUMPER PLASTIC IF YOU SEE FIT. THIS
WILL KEEP THE BUMPER SNUG TO THE NUDGE BAR FOR AN EVEN
STURDIER INSTALLATION.
