C. If possible, position the mounting brackets
so they are located
within 15” of the bottom
of the fender. This protects against wind
blowing the leading edge of the fender back
into the tire (Figure 5).
Tip:
If the front fender bracket is
mounted higher than
15”, refer to

for further suggestions on
adding additional support.
STEP 4
A. Attach the bracket (PB5010) to the fender.
a.
Drill six 5/16” holes through the fender using
the holes in bracket PB5010 as a guide.
b.
Install the 5/16” x 1” bolts through the
bracket and into the fender.
c.
Use six 5/16” fender washers and 5/16” nuts
provided with the kit on the underside of the
fender.
d. Tighten the fender bolts.
Recommended
torque for the 5/16” x 1” bolts is 10
-15 ft-
lbs.
e. Make sure the fenders are square and
aligned (Figure 6). Twists or
bows in the fender will fatigue the
material over time.
STEP 5
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.
