JK WRANGLER/UNLIMITED SAFARI SPORT RACK
INSTALLATION SHEET
WAR 877 & 879
Important Notes:
1. Due to welding, handling, shipping, etc., the Light Bar legs may need to be “adjusted” slightly (bent in or out)
to fit correctly. A small amount of twisting will not hurt the bar. Be careful not to scratch the paint as you install
the legs.
2. The nut plates on some Jeep windshields may come loose when both bolts are removed at the same time.
Loosen both bolts, remove one, install bracket with one bolt, spin out of the way and remove other bolt. Try to
keep one bolt engaged through the windshield at all times.
3. You will likely need a second person to assist you in some parts of this installation, as the racks are very large
and difficult to handle alone.
4. Some customers have experienced excessive sway in the rear of their rack when loaded. This is caused by the
overly thin body panels on the new Wranglers, and unfortunately all of our attempts to brace the legs from the
inside have proven unsuccessful. We do however recommend that you use one of our 920A series corner plates
to help reinforce your rack.

Phase 1: Front Hoop Installation
1. Remove the 2 screws on the upper outboard side of the drivers side windshield hinge and install the
supplied mounting brackets to these mounting holes using the supplied Allen-head hardware. Leave bolts
loosely attached. Repeat for the passenger side hinge as well.
2. Lift the front hoop into place and slide onto the loosely mounted brackets. The light tabs should be
pointing forward.
