26. Loosely attach the support bracket to the end
plate. Use 3/8”-16 x 1-1/4” bolts with 3/8” lock
washers (grey arrows). On the back holes,
use 61-5208 nut plates. On the front holes,
use 3/8”-16 x 1-1/4” hex bolts with 3/8” lock
washers and 3/8” whiz nuts. Do this to both
sides.
24. Using the support bracket holes as a template,
drill four (4) holes thru the frame with a 13/32”
drill bit. Use 3/8”-16 x 1-1/4” hex bolts with 3/8”
lock washers and 3/8”-16 hex nuts in the lower
holes. Use 3/8”-16 x 1-1/4” hex bolts with 3/8”
lock washers and 61-5208 nut plate inside the
frame end. Tighten with Loctite® Red. Do this
to both sides of the vehicle.
23. Align the support bracket, 1/4” from the
bumper and ush with the bottom, clamp
with the large vise grips. The spacer is not
provided. Do this on both sides.
25. Line up the bolt holes of the support bracket
and side plate by hand and mark a notch. This
notch needs to provide enough clearance to
allow the side plate to be installed.
