STEP 6 

 

A.  Attach the bracket (PB501026A) to the fender. 

 

a.  Drill six 5/16” holes through the 

fender using the holes in bracket 
PB501026A as a guide.   

 

b.  Install the 5/16” x 1” bolts through 

the bracket and into the fender.   

 

c.  Use six 5/16” body washers and 

5/16” nuts provided with the kit on 
the underside of the fender.   

 

d. 

Tighten the bolts to 
recommended torque of 10-15 
FT-LBS.

  Hand tightening with 

Torque wrench is recommended.  

DO NOT EXCEED 
RECOMMENDED TORQUE

 

e.  Make sure the fenders are square 

and aligned (Figure 13).  Twists or  
bows in the fender will fatigue the 
material over time. 

 

 

STEP 7 

 

A.  For trucks with air suspension, raise and lower the suspension one final time to confirm 

that there is adequate clearance between the fenders and wheels.   

B.  Recheck all brackets and bolts to ensure they are tightened to the recommended torque.  

 

NOTE: ONCE FENDERS ARE IN SERVICE OCCASIONALLY CHECK TORQUE ON 
5/8” X 4-1/2” HEX BOLTS IN THE FRAME TO MAKE SURE THEY DO NOT LOOSEN 
OVER TIME.
