5.
To remove the factory bumper an extra set of hands will
be helpful. It is a good idea to tape off the truck around
the rear bumper with Duct tape or similar to avoid any
potential scratches while removing the rear bumper. To
remove the bumper from the truck, first lift, then
carefully pull it away from the vehicle evenly. The
bumper must be lifted so that an indexing pin will move
out of a retaining slot in the frame (see the image to the
right). The bumper may be a bit stubborn to remove
and may require that you wiggle it a bit to work it out.
6.
After the bumper (and Tow Receiver) have been
separated from the truck, finish by removing both of the
OEM Receiver Brackets attached to the bottom of the
frame by two bolts (when applicable). Leave the Front
Bolts in place (Figure 4).
7.
Install Filler Plates / Light Mount Brackets into your Warrior Products bumper with the supplied ¼” carriage bolts
and associated hardware. (This can be done with bumper installed, but it is easier to do it at this time).
NOTE: The bracket orientation will differ depending on installation as Filler Plate, or as Light Mount Bracket.
See Figures 3 and 4.
a.
If you are installing the Filler Plate without LED’s, simply orient
the bracket as shown in Figure 5, with the square portion filling
the square cutout in the bumper.
i.
Insert two ¼” Carriage bolts (one per side) through the
Filler Plate bracket and the bumper mount bracket.
ii.
Place a ¼” washer and ¼” Nyloc nut on each Carriage
bolt.
iii.
Visually align the plate and tighten hardware.
iv.
Repeat for the other side.
b.
If you have aftermarket LED lights that you wish to use, Your
Light Mount Brackets with be oriented as shown in Figure 6.
i.
You must first determine where to drill the hole in the
plate to mount your lights. Place the Light Mount
Bracket into position, and hold your light in place.
Determine how far back on the plate to drill your
mounting hole so that you will have clearance to mount
your light without interference with the bumper skin.
ii.
Place a mark centered between the arms of the bracket
at your desired depth away from the bumper skin. Do
this for both Light Mount Brackets.
