PROCEDURE:
REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX AND VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ INSTRUCTIONS
CAREFULLY. CUTTING MAY BE REQUIRED. INSTALLATION MAY INTERFERE WITH FRONT
MOUNTED SENSORS. NOTE: It may be necessary to remove/relocate front license plate and license plate
bracket. It is not required, but strongly recommended. If local/state law requires a front license plate, license
plate relocation kit is available.
1. Start installation from under the front of the vehicle. Determine if the vehicle is equipped with tow hooks.
IMPORTANT: Tow hooks cannot be reinstalled with the Bull Bar.
Tow Hook equipped vehicles:
a. Remove the factory tow hook from the end of each frame channel, (Figures 1—3).
b. Select the passenger/right Mounting Bracket. Insert the Bracket through the opening in the bumper
and up to the frame. Trim the plastic as required to clear the Bracket, (Figure 5). Repeat to check for
clearance on driver/left side of bumper.
c. Proceed to Step 2.
Vehicles without tow hooks:
a. Cut out the indented area in both sides of the plastic bumper insert to clear the Brackets as pictured,
(Figures 4 & 5). IMPORTANT: Make several small cuts for best fit.
b. Check for clearance between Brackets and opening and trim the plastic as required to clear the
Brackets.
2. Line up the holes in the Bracket with the holes in the end of the frame channel for the tow hook, (Figure
5). Select (1) 12mm Double Bolt Plate, (Figure 6). Insert the Bolt Plate into the end of the frame and out
through the (2) holes in the side of the frame and out through the Bracket, (Figures 6 & 8). Secure the
Bracket to the Bolt Plate with (2) 12mm Flat Washers and (2) 12mm Nylon Lock Nuts. Leave hardware
loose at this time.
3. Repeat Step 2 to install the 12mm x 35mm Single Bolt Plate, (Figure 9), into the single forward tow hook
mounting hole in the other side of the frame channel and Bracket, (Figures 6, 10 & 11).
4. Repeat Steps 2 & 3 to install the driver/left Mounting Bracket.
5. With assistance, hold the Bull Bar up in position on the outside of the Mounting Brackets. Attach the Bull
Bar to the Brackets with (4) 10mm x 30mm Hex Bolts, (8) 10mm Flat Washers and (4) 10mm Nylon Lock
Nuts, (Figures 12 & 13). Do not tighten hardware at this time.
6. Check the Bull Bar alignment with the vehicle and for clearance between the Bull Bar and the bumper.
Adjust as required then fully tighten all hardware at this time.
