I. PREPARE AEV JK REAR BUMPER FOR ASSEMBLY
1. Install the Corner Tank Plugs. If the optional Pump Kit is being fitted, install the 90º
tube fittings into the Corner Tanks with Teflon tape to prevent leakage.
2. With two people, evenly place the Rear Bumper, Corner Tanks (loose but in place),
Spindle Housing and Rotation Bracket into the rear of the Jeep frame at the same time,
it’s a bit awkward but easier with two people.
3. Install the Corner Tanks to the bumper using three M10x20 button head Allen bolts and
small diameter washers per side. Leave loose for now, there will be adjustment required
later.
4. Install the factory re-used
“L” Brackets loosely to the Corner Tanks using two M10x20
button head Allen bolts and large diameter washers on each of the Corner Tanks.
5. Using a small amount of ANTI-SEIZE compound on each bolt, install the bolts that hold
the bumper to the frame by JUST STARTING EACH BOLT. Begin with the re-used bolts
attaching the “L” brackets to the Jeep frame, then the ½” bolts and washers through the
Spindle Housing (on the right side) and the Rotation Bracket (on the left side), and
finally use the 5/16 x 1” Allen bolts in the top and bottom of the Spindle Housing.
