BMR Suspension CB004 - Manual

RADIATOR SUPPORT CHASSIS BRACE INSTALLATION
CB004 – 2005-Present Mustang
NOTE: This brace was designed for use on 2011+ model Mustangs. To make this brace compatible on 2005-2010 models, it is
necessary to use either the BMR Tubular Radiator Support (RS003) or an OE 2011 radiator support.
RECOMMENDED TOOLS:
Sockets: 9/16”, 8mm, 15mm deep, 18mm deep
3/8” drive ratchet
9/16” wrench
Hydraulic jack and stands
INSTALLATION:
1. Lift the vehicle and safely support it under the front engine cradle (K-
member) or frame rails.
2. Using the 8mm wrench, remove all of the small screws that retain the
lower plastic panels covering the OE chassis brace and radiator core
support. Remove panels to gain access to work area.
3. Using a 15mm socket, remove the (8) bolts (4 on K-member and 4 on
Radiator support) that retain the OE chassis brace then remove the brace.

pinion mounting bolts as shown in IMAGE 3.

Tubular Radiator Support, tighten the supplied 3/8” bolts to 45 ft/lbs.
