INSTALLATION TIPS

• Torque specs for M6 tamper-proof screws are 37-72 inch lbs and 68-135 inch lbs for M8 tamper-proof screws.
• Assistance is recommended to hold the shield in place.

STEP 1

Install rivet nuts (x2). Locate the two (2) pre-existing holes in the back side of the the transmission cross member. Use a rivet nut tool and install two (2) rivet nuts in the holes. The 4WD model will require the transfer case and transmission to be slightly lifted to install the rivet nut on the driver side hole.

STEP 2

Install left and right wings. Install the left and right wings to the main Cat Shield using the 8 tamper-proof flat head screws (short) hardware. Refer to image B to make sure the MILLERCAT “M” logo is oriented correctly. Use the “L” (left) and “R” (right) markings on the wings and the vent direction as your guide.

STEP 3

Loosely install the Cat Shield. Place the Cat Shield into location by lining up the mounting holes to the shield. Refer to image C. Pro Tip: Assistance may be needed to hold the shield in place. We recommend having another person assist or using a stand to hold the shield. Install the two (2) front mounts by inserting the tamper-proof flat head screw (long) through the cross member and into the nut plate (see image D). The nut plate is a custom hardware that allows the shield to be secured to the cross member.

STEP 4

Loosely install rear mounts. Locate the two (2) holes on the transmission cross member (refer to image C for location of the holes). Insert the tamper- proof flat head screw (long) through he cross member and secure it with the M8 flange nut on the other side of the cross member. This will secure the rear mounts to the cross member.

STEP 5

Install rear ear tabs. The rear ear tabs on the Cat Shield should be lined up with the rivet nuts on the rear cross member. Install the flat washer, lock washer, and then tamper-proof screw to the two holes in the shield.

STEP 6

Tighten all remaining screws and nuts. Make sure the shield and bracket line up in their proper locations and use the security screw keys and M12 opened end wrench to completely tighten the shield to the vehicle.
