PROCEDURE:

1. REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ

INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION. CUTTING IS REQUIRED.
ASSISTANCE IS RECOMMENDED.

2. Starting at the underside of the front bumper, carefully remove the plastic splash guard. NOTE:

Depending on the model of truck, the splash guard may be attached to the bottom of the truck with
hex bolts and several two-piece plastic push-in clips. NOTE: Pay close attention to the type and
location of all factory hardware for reinstallation. First, remove all hex bolts then locate the clips
behind the bumper cover, (Figure 1A). Pry up on the center pin of the clip with a small flat blade
screwdriver and remove the entire clip, (Figure 1B). The splash guard may also be attached to
the bumper cover with rivets or hex bolts at the corners. NOTE: If the splash guard is fastened
with rivets, first remove all of the other fasteners from the splash guard. Hold the bumper cover in
place and firmly pull the splash guard from each rivet. Remove the rivets from the bumper cover
and move the splash guard to a clean stable work area.

3. From underneath the front of the vehicle, determine if the truck is equipped with or without tow

hooks.
