Mounting Bracket through the opening in the bumper and up to the mounting surface, (Figure 3).
Secure the Frame Mounting Bracket to the tow hook location using the factory hardware.

Nuts, (Figure 8). Snug but do not tighten hardware at this time.

during bracket installation. Loosen the factory (2) hex bolts located on the bottom of the
crossmember, (Figure 4A & 4B). Select the passenger side Top Mounting Bracket and attach it to
the crossmember using the factory hex bolts. Push the bracket back against the crossmember
