DISMOUNTING THE OEM BUMPER
DISMOUNTING THE OEM BUMPER
STEP 7 (SAVE
COMPONENTS)
Disconnect the fog light
harness, there is a plug located
under the driver side headlight
that can be accessed
underneath the bumper. This
plug has a lever to release it
from the harness, disconnect
the harness
by pulling the lever until it
releases.
STEP 8 (SAVE
COMPONENTS)
To avoid damage, we
recommend having someone
help to remove the bumper
cover. From the wheel well,
pull the bumper away from
the fender. As it loosens, slip
your fingers between the
bumper cover and fender
and work towards the front
of the vehicle. Do this
carefully from both sides.
Figure 7.
STEP 9
Use a 14mm socket or wrench
to remove the crash bar from
the frame. There are 4 bolts
per side, 3 on the outside and
1 on the inside of each frame
mount. The crash bar is also
attached by hooks. With the
bolts removed, lift up on the
crash bar to unhook it from
the frame. The crash bar will
not be used for the ICI
bumper.

removed from so they can be
reinstalled later.
