Install the rear bumper brackets. 

Refer to the image below to see how the rear brackets look when installed. 

These can be slid from side-to-side in order to get the best mounting possible. 

 

 

 

The single passenger 
side (right side) rear 
bracket is roughly 4.5 
inches (11.4 cm) away 
from the pre-existing 
mounting bracket and 
about 10 inches (25.4 
cm) away from the 
passenger side end of 
the steel bumper.
