CUTTING MAY BE REQUIRED. INSTALLATION MAY INTERFERE WITH BUMPER MOUNTED
PARKING SENSORS. ASSISTANCE IS RECOMMENDED.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to remove/relocate front license plate and license plate bracket. It is not
required, but strongly recommended. If local/state law requires a front license plate, license plate relocation
kit is available.
1.
Starting at the driver side, remove the factory tow hook if equipped,
(Figures 1A & 1B)
.
NOTE:
This Bull
Bar is not compatible with the factory tow hooks and they cannot be reinstalled.
IMPORTANT
: On some
model years, with and without tow hooks, the pocket in the plastic bumper may need to be trimmed or
completely cut out,
(Figure 1A)
. Use a sharp knife or hacksaw blade and carefully cut out the pocket to
clear the Bull Bar Brackets. Only cut enough to clear the Brackets.

(Figure 3)
, into the end of the frame channel,
(Figure 4)
, and out through
the hole in the bottom of the frame. Insert a second Bolt Plate into and out the hole in the outer side of
the frame, (factory hole for tow hook bolt),
(Figures 4 & 5)
. Thread 12mm Plastic Retainers onto the Bolt
Plates to help hold them in place as needed.
NOTE

and use is optional.
