IN THE RECEIVER SIDE BRACKETS. WHEN HOLES DO NOT MATCH PRECISELY, FILE OR GRIND MATERIAL FROM THE VEHICLE FRAME TO MATCH THE HOLE
IN THE RECEIVER SIDE BRACKET.

OR DRILL BIT TO BREAK, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN PERSONAL INJURY.

NOT CONTACT ANY GAS TANK SUPPORTS OR SPARE TIRE HANGER BRACKETS IF VEHICLE IS SO
