1. REMOVE (6) FRONT FASCIA ATTACHMENT FASTENERS, (4 LOCATED AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 2 AND (2) LOCATED AT THE REAR SIDE OF
IMPACT STRUCTURE) WITH A GOOD NUMBER 2 PHILLIP HEAD SCREW DRIVER.
HINT: QUICK 1/2 TURN MOVEMENT OF THE SCREW DRIVER HELPS.
2. PULL OUT WIRE HARNESS ATTACHMENTS ON THE VERTICAL POST AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 1.
TO ALLOW MORE ACCESS TO THE VERTICAL POST THE TOP PLASTIC COVER BETWEEN THE BUMPER AND GRILL CAN BE SLID OFF
TO EACH SIDE AFTER REMOVING 2 PLASTIC FASTENERS LOCATED ABOVE THE FRAME RAIL (SEE FIGURE 4). THIS CAN REALLY
HELP ON THE RUBICON MODEL.
3. SLIDE HITCH INTO POSITION AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 1 AND 3. LOOSELY INSTALL FASTENERS 1 THRU 4 AT THE BUMPER LOCATIONS.
4. LOOSLEY INSTALL OTHER FASTENERS AS SHOWN. THE HANDLENUT (ITEM 7) CAN BE INSTALLED FROM ABOVE OR BELOW THE
VERTICAL POST. DIFFERENT MODELS AND YEARS WILL DICTATE THIS. 2012 AND UP MODELS MAY REQUIRE TEMPORARILY MOVING
THE BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP, REMOVE THE FORWARD MOST BOLT FROM THE PUMP AND PIVOT IT OUT OF THE WAY TO INSTALL THE
TOP BOLT IN THE HITCH, MODELS WITH THE BOOSTER PUMP DO NOT REQUIRE THE LOWER ATTACHMENT BOLT ON THE DRIVER
SIDE. IF NECESSARY, THE BLOCKS (ITEM 9) MAY BE USED TO REDUCE THE "GAP" BETWEEN THE HITCH AND THE DRIVER SIDE
FRAME RAIL. ** VEHICLE VARIATION MAY REQUIRE TWO CONICAL WASHERS (ITEM 2) AT THIS ATTACHEMENT TO PREVENT THE END
OF THE BOLT HITTING THE FRAME RAIL.
5. PUSH THE HITCH REARWARD (KEEPING IT LEVEL) AND TIGHTEN FASTENERS. USE CABLE TIES TO HOLD WIRE HARNESS TO HITCH.
6. ASK CUSTOMER BEFORE TRIMMING FASCIA. TRIM FASCIA AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 2. USE THE HITCH AS A PATTERN.
CAUTION; BUMPER ATTACHMENTS ARE NOT CENTERED ON VEHICLE.
7. REINSTALL FRONT FASCIA WITH FASTENERS REMOVED IN STEP 1.
Note: check hitch frequently, making sure all fasteners and ball are properly tightened. If hitch is removed, plug all holes in trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and
exhaust fumes. A hitch or ball which has been damaged should be removed and replaced. Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle and wear eye protection. Do not cut
access or attachment holes with a torch.
This product complies with safety specifications and requirements for connecting devices and towing systems of the state of New York, V.E.S.C. Regulation V-5 and SAE J684.
