POISON SPYDER CUSTOMS INST-17-08-030_A • JK 2-Dr Rocker Knockers™—Frame Mounted 2

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

IMPORTANT: Completely install and remove the

product BEFORE painting or powder coating it. This

will allow you to check for tment or do any clearancing

or tting ahead of time, to reduce the chance of

damage to the nish during nal installation. Poison

Spyder Customs Inc. is not responsible for costs for

or damage to paint or powder coat nish under any

circumstances, including paint or powder coat of

incorrectly shipped or defective parts.

It is recommended to do the pre-installation without

the removable skid plates installed. They may be

installed later, after painting, before nal installation of

the Rocker Knockers™.

Note that the following photos and instructions pertain

specically to installation on a 4-door JK, however

installation on a 2-door is similar, with only minor

differences that become apparent during the process.

1. If your Jeep has an automatic transmission, starting

with the drivers side, remove the OE bolt that attaches the

transmission skid plate crossmember to the bottom of the

frame rail. Do not remove the bolt on the other side of

this crossmember or the crossmember itself. If your jeep

has a manual transmission, this skid/crossmember is not

present, however the threaded holes in the frame rail for

it are.

2. Install the drivers’ side Rocker Knocker™ by sliding

the mounting ﬂange of the forward outrigger in between

the bottom of the frame rail and the transmission skid plate

crossmember (auto trans models). Again, on Jeeps with

manual transmissions this crossmember is not present.

3. Either re-use the OE transmission skid crossmember

bolt (if auto trans) or use one of the supplied M12-1.5 X

40MM Hex Head Cap Screws with lock washer and ﬂat

washer, to secure the Rocker Knocker to the Jeep’s frame

rail. Make sure the rearward two outriggers are snug to

the side of the Jeep’s frame rail as you tighten this bolt.

4. Use a pen or transfer punch to mark the centers of

the bolt holes for the two rearward crossmembers. You will

want to push the Rocker Knocker™ snugly up against the

bottom and sides of the frame rail, and also against the

adjacent body mount brackets, while marking the holes.
