1.

REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ INSTRUCTIONS
CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION. CUTTING REQUIRED

2.

Measure from the driver outer edge of the air dam 23” towards the inside of the car and mark the location.
Use a hack saw to cut a 1” x 3 ½” gap on the air dam (Figure 1). NOTE: Use the mark as center of the
cutting location.

3.

Remove the driver side factory hex nut located on the cross member bar. This is the hex nut that mounts the

Locate the driver side motor mount bushing. Use a 15mm socket to remove the two front (small) bolts.
Proceed to loosen up the rear (large) bolt just enough so you can slide the Mounting Bracket in between

bracket and frame, while you slide the Mounting Bracket between motor mount bushing (Figure 3).

Once the Mounting Bracket is in place, use the included 3/8” x 1” Self Tapping Bolt to attach the outer front
facing Mounting Location on the Bracket to the factory hole on the cross member bar. Re-install the factory
hex nut and the two bolts removed from the motor mount bushing. Tighten all hardware at this time including
the large bolt on the motor mount bushing and frame (figure 4). Tighten large motor mount bolt to 75 ft lbs.
