XRC Rear Armor Corner Guard Kit
Step 7: Test fit the rear armor fender (93-7267 drvr and 93-7277 pass) using C-clamps
around the outside of the panels through the windows. Fig B & C.
IMPORTANT!: Align the upper edge of the armor with the body line. The bottom
rear edge of the armor should line up with the radius of the lower edge. The front of the
armor should be aligned so that it provides proper clearance for door operation. Fig B &
C.
Step 8: Once the armor fender is properly aligned and clamped into place, mark the appro-
priate holes for drilling. Fig B & C.
NOTE: If you are reinstalling the license plate box to the vehicle, place the supplied
drill template on the rear of the driver side fender against the tailgate. Using the holes in
the template mark the driver side armor fender for drilling.
Step 9: Remove the armor fender and center punch the previously applied marks for drill-
ing. Carefully drill the fender mounting marks out to 33/64”and the license plate holes to
3/4” and 3/8”. Fig B & C.
IMPORTANT!: DO NOT drill through the interior panels.
Step 10: Install the 3/8” nutcerts into the previously drilled 33/64” holes in the quarter
panel.
NOTE: If you do not have a professional nutcert installation tool, use the 2 1/2” X
3/8” socket head bolt, 3/8” nut and washer. Install the nutcert into the 1/2” hole on the
vehicle. Thread the nut up as far on the 3/8” bolt as it will go and then follow that with the
washer. Thread the bolt, nut, washer, nutcert tool (96-5951) and star washer assembly
into the nutcert. (Fig. A) While holding the 3/8” bolt with an Allen wrench, tighten the
nut and washer down against the nutcert. Use the nutcert tool and star washer to keep the
nutcert body from spinning while tightening the 3/8” bolt. Once the nutcert is properly
installed into the vehicle remove the 3/8” bolt, nut, washer, nutcert tool (96-5951) and star
washer .
