6. Stand back from the vehicle and check to see that the Bull Bar is centered and level on the vehicle and
adjust as necessary. Tighten only the hardware securing the Mounting Brackets to the vehicle first. Next
tighten only the (4) 8mm Hex Bolts securing the Tube Brackets to the Bull Bar as described in Step 4. Do
not tighten the 12mm hardware attaching the Tube Brackets to the Mounting Brackets. Remove the Bull
Bar with Tube Brackets attached.
7. Hold the splash guard up to the bumper cover and align it with the mounting points, (Figure 11). Mark the
location of the Mounting Brackets onto the back of the splash guard, (Figures 11—13). Cut an
approximately 1" wide by 4" long slot in the splash guard, (Figure 13). NOTE: The size of the slot is an
estimate only and may vary due to different factory designs for the splash guards and front bumper covers.
Also, additional cutting may be required to clear the Support Bracket on vehicles equipped with tow hooks.
IMPORTANT: To avoid weakening the splash guard, do not cut the slot any larger than necessary. Do not
cut through the front or back edges of the cover, (Figure 13). Make several small cuts first and check the fit
often for a clean installation.

brackets and mark location for cutting to
clear brackets. Cut only what is needed to
insert bracket through the splash guard.
Measure the distance from the mounting point
for the splash guard to the bracket on the driver
and passenger side. Use this measurement as a
reference point to check location before cutting
the 1" wide x 4" long slot
