the fan shroud, out of the way.

air filter assembly, rubber bellows, mass air flow (MAF) sensor
and bracket with rubber mounts and resonator from inner
fender. Separate the MAF sensor from the mounting bracket
and set aside.
E. The ground wire attached to the radiator support must be
rerouted so as to pass through the hole behind the right
headlight and secured from the front. Make sure to clean
away any paint that would insulate the end of the ground
wire from the grounding point on the vehicle.

radiator hose and set aside.

washers as a unit.

Renegade system, remove the factory crank
pulley and replace with the new high output
crank pulley; secure with the supplied bolts
and washers.
NOTE: Tighten bolts progressively and
evenly in a crisscross pattern
so that pulleys align properly.
