The following procedure details the rear mounting plate installation (refer to figure 2-4):
1.
Remove the rear bumper, the two rear most bumper brackets (Item 1) and the two
forward most bumper brackets (Item 2) from the frame rails (Item 3). Leave the
bumper bracket retaining bolts (Item 4) in the frame. Retain all parts for re-
installation.
2.
Place each rear mounting plate (Item 5) against the outside of the frame rails around
the rear spring hangers (Item 6). The holes in the mounting plates should align with
the bumper bracket retaining bolts in the frame.
3.
Place the rear operating valve support (Item 7) over the left side forward bumper
bracket retaining bolts as shown.
4.
Place the bumper brackets back in their original position. The mounting plates and
operating valve support should now be between the frame and the bumper brackets.
5.
Fasten the mounting plates, operating valve support and bumper brackets to the frame
using the original fasteners (Item 8). Ensure the mounting plates are level and
aligned with each other. Torque the original fasteners to Dodge specifications.
6.
Place and center the adapter angles (Item 9) against the inside of the mounting plates
as shown.
7.
Fasten the adapter angles to the mounting plates using four
