PX RANGER MK2 GRILL
The Rhino4x4 Evolution 3D front winch bar for the Ranger
MK2 is designed to fit both the standard ranger grill and
also the Ford Everest Grill. The Everest grill will fit with
no modification. The standard Ranger grill will just need
the lower section trimmed off. This is an easy task and
provides a great finish.
GRILL CUT
The image on the right displays where the grill is
trimmed. There is an existing radius that runs along the
lower section of the grill from one side to the other. This
line is followed.

1. Place grill on ground front side up
2. Using a fine cutting disc on an angle grinder cut along the
radius splitting it in half from one side to the other.
3. Turn the grill over ensuring the front sits on something
that will not mark it. On the rear there is another layer to
cut through. You will see the line to cut as you would have
penetrated areas from the front cut. Finish the cut from the
rear. Its best to cut the rear a little higher than the front so that
you cannot see that layer from the front.
NOTE: Ensure you do not cut through to the front in this step.
4. Sit the grill in place. You will then see where you need to
adjust the cut depending on your final bar install position. Aim
for a minimum of 5mm gap between bar and grill to prevent
paint rubbing during body flex. You can achieve this by using
the side of the cutting disc.
5. Once you are happy with your final shape, finish off the edge
using sand paper on a block to get a nice smooth and uniform
finish. If your grill is chrome, make any sanding/filing motions
from front of grill to rear to ensure you don’t separate the
chrome from the plastic grill. Also be careful as chrome edge
can be sharp.
