9.
Disconnect the 2 factory fog light connectors as shown in
Figure 3
below.
10.
Disengage the 2 claws as shown in
Figure 3
below.
11.
Remove the front bumper cover by pulling upward on the bottom of the bumper skin.
12.
You will now need to remove the bumper sub-assembly by removing 6 nuts. See
Figure 4
below. Make sure to
save these 6 nuts, as you will need them to complete your bumper installation.
13.
If the sub-assembly does not release, you may have to drive a wedge, chisel, or screwdriver in-between the
aluminum flange and the steel frame mounting flange to separate the sub-assembly.
Figure 4
14.
Before placing the bumper on the vehicle, check the frame holes to
verify clearance for the ½” x 5” winch plate reinforcement hex bolts.
There are 2 locations per side, one above, and one below the mounting
studs as indicated in
Figure 5.
Using one of your
½” x 5” Hex Bolts, pass
the bolt through the entire frame and out the back side at all 4
locations. If the bolt does not pass through, you will have to enlarge
the holes slightly using a ½” drill bit. If you have to enlarge any holes,
we suggest you paint the exposed raw metal edge of the hole to
prevent rust development.
15.
Next, trim or tuck the fender liners. To trim the liners, cut them just
forward of the clips that hold them in place at the top, front of the
fender. The clips and general trim location are shown in
Figure 6
. To
tuck the fender liners, you can pull the loose end of the liner up to the
support directly under the headlights and secure them using zip-ties
through existing holes.
16.
Position your Warrior bumper over the existing mounting studs
. (Use
extreme caution while positioning the bumper to avoid damage to the
vehicle)
. We suggest you find a friend or two to help at this point.
17.
Hand tighten each of the six nuts you saved from the bumper sub-
assembly removal in Step 12. Three nuts will be installed per side.
