INSTALLATION:

two hex bolts on either side of the fender and two plastic fender clips that must be removed to
pull the top fender off. Leave the bottom plastic fender attached. See Figure 1.
Figure 1
2. On either side of the radiator are plastic side walls, remove both of them via the 1/4'' fender
clips. Note which side is the RH and LH as they will need to be installed correctly later.
Remove the plastic cross support and set aside. Also, it is helpful to remove the mesh radiator
guard from the radiator side supports. Set it aside. (Figure 2)

3. Assemble the winch mount and hardware as shown in the schematic above. Some winch
models may need spacers to avoid hitting the curved frame support tubes. If your winch needs
to be raised up, use the accompanying spacers and M8 x 35mm bolts to mount your winch.
Most winches do not require the spacers and can be mounted directly to the mount bars.
4. Tighten all hardware.
5. Once the winch has been mounted, use the templates included in these instructions to mark
the plastic side skirts for trimming. The templates fit into the angled ribs along the bottom of
the plastic guards. Trimming allows the motor and gear end to protrude slightly. The motor
end template is on the Right Hand side of the vehicle when sitting on the seat. The gear end
template is on the Left Hand side of the vehicle when sitting on the seat. Notch out the circular
pattern and verify fitment. Insert the plastic clips. Insert the mesh radiator guard into the slots.
Note, the center plastic piece is no longer needed.
6. Reassemble the plastic bumper and attach the fairlead to the front of the mount.
7. Run the winch power wires along the RH side of the vehicle. Mount the contactor in the
storage box or near the battery using the M6 hardware in your winch. Wire winch per
manufacturer’s instructions. Warning: Avoid running wires near sharp objects, moving
components or exhaust lines. Follow the OEM wiring harness whenever possible.
