Introduction 

 
Congratulations on purchasing the Spirit Brackets Kit that allows very secure attachment of an A.L.I.C.E. pack 
frame to your Spirit Halloween Proton Pack. 
 
The Spirit Brackets Kit is designed to work with the Spirit Halloween Deluxe Proton Pack and can be used with 
the existing Spirit motherboard (cardboard, foam and fabric back side covering).  Some minor cutting of the 
cardboard motherboard and drilling of two mounting holes in the Proton pack and 3 mounting holes in the 
A.L.I.C.E. frame is required for installation.  All mounting hardware is included, but you must supply your own 
Spirit Proton pack, A.L.I.C.E. frame and tools. 
 
The brackets have been tested on the 2017 and 2018 versions of the Spirit Proton pack and also with two 
separate A.L.I.C.E. frames: 
 
1) Rothco Alice Pack Frame with Attachments 
     https://www.rothco.com/product/rothco-alice-pack-frame-with-attachments 
 
2) Fox Outdoor Products LC-1 A.L.I.C.E. Field Pack Frame 
     https://www.foxoutdoor.com/ItemDetails.aspx?win=&cid=3&ccid=23&cscid=175  
 
If you use some other A.L.I.C.E. frame, there could be fitment issues since the brackets are specifically sized to 
work with the above two A.L.I.C.E. frames. 
 
Here is the Spirit Pack with the frame attached:
