PROCEDURE:
1. REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION. ALLOW EXHAUST
TO FULLY COOL BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.
2. Starting on the passenger side, locate the (2) threaded holes in the side of the rear body well,
(Figure 1).
3. Select the passenger side Frame Bracket and position it up to the mounting location. Secure
the Frame Bracket to the rear well with the included (2) 12mm x 30mm Hex Bolts, (2) 12mm
Lock Washers and (2) 12mm Flat Washers, (Figure 2). Snug but do not tighten hardware at
this time. NOTE: The slight bend in the Frame Bracket will go toward the outside of the vehicle
when properly installed.

installed Frame Bracket with the included (2) 12mm x 35mm Hex Bolts, (4) 12mm Flat
Washers and (2) 12mm Nylon Lock Nuts, (Figure 2). Snug but do not tighten hardware.
5. Repeat Steps 2-4 for driver side Bracket installation. IMPORTANT! The driver side mounting
location for the Frame Bracket is very close to the exhaust pipe. Allow exhaust pipe to
cool before starting the installation.
6. When properly mounted, the Mounting Brackets will be close to vertical. Due to significant
variances in production vehicles, (2) extra 12mm Flat Washers have been included to provide
more Frame Bracket adjustment. Insert (1) 12mm Flat Washer per side in the top mounting
position between the Frame Bracket and the vehicle as necessary to align the Brackets,
(Figures 3A & 3B).
7. Carefully position the Rear Bumper Guard onto the Mounting Brackets and line up the
threaded inserts with the cradles on the Mounting Brackets. If the holes do not line up properly,
(2) Spacers have been provided to provide additional width adjustment. Insert (1) Spacer
