STEP 2
Determine the correct procedure to attach the driver-side front Bracket for
your model/year:
Models without factory threaded inserts in body panel:
-
Select (1) 8mm Bolt/nut Plate (Fig 2). Partially thread an 8mm Hex Bolt onto the thread of the Nut Plate (Fig 3). Thread the Hex Bolt in until it is flush with the welded nut. Use the Hex Bolt as a handle and insert the Bolt and Nut Plate into the oval hole (Fig 4). Feed the threaded bolt on the Bolt Plate through one of the hex-shaped factory holes.
-
Thread (1) 8mm Plastic Retainer onto the threaded end and down tight against the body panel (Fig 5).
NOTE: The Plastic Retainer is designed to keep the Bolt/Nut Plate from falling into the body panel and to aid in Bracket installation. -
Select (1) Driver/Left Bracket (Fig 6). Attach the Bracket to the threaded end of the Bolt Plate with (1) 8mm Flat Washer, (1) 8mm Lock washer and (1) 8mm Hex Nut (Fig 6).
IMPORTANT: The driver/Left Front Bracket is the same as the Driver/Left Center and Passenger/Right Rear Brackets. DO NOT tighten hardware at this time . -
Remove the 8mm Hex Bolt from the nut on the Bolt Plate from STEP 2a. Rotate the Bolt on the Bolt Plate until the threaded nut lines up with the remaining hole in the Mounting Bracket and body panel, (Fig 7). Attach the Bracket to the threaded Nut Plate with (1) 8mm x 30mm Hex Bolt, (1) 8mm Lock Washer and (1) 8mm Flat Washer (Fig 7). DO NOT tighten the hardware.
Models with factory threaded inserts:
- Attach (1) Driver/Left Mounting Bracket to the threaded inserts with (2) 8mm x 30mm Hex Bolts, (2) 8mm Lock Washers and (2) 8mm Flat Washer (Figs 8 & 9). DO NOT tighten the hardware.

Attach the Bracket to the back of the pinch weld with (2) 6mm Button Head
Bolts, (4) 6mm Flat Washers, (1) Large Spacer and (2) 6mm Flange Nuts (Fig
10). DO NOT fully tighten the hardware.
IMPORTANT:
2009-12 models not equipped with factory holes will require drilling through
the pinch weld to fully attach the Bracket. DO NOT drill through pinch weld at
this time (see STEP 7).
STEP 4
Move along the side of the body panel to the centre mounting location (Fig
11). Repeat STEPs 1-3 to install (1) Driver/Left Center Mounting Bracket to
the center mounting location. Note that you will be using a small spacer and
one set of hardware instead for the pinch weld location.
STEP 5
Move to the rear location (Fig 12). Repeat STEPs 1-3 to attach (1)
Passenger/Right Rear Mounting Bracket to the Driver/Left rear mounting
location.

Mounting Brackets and attach it with (6) 8mm Combo Bolts (Fig 13). DO NOT
tighten the hardware.

-
Drill (2) 1/4” holes through the pinch weld for the front and rear bracket, and (1) 1/4” holes for the centre bracket.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT drill too close to the bottom edge of the pinch weld. Drill the holes in the centre of the marked slots. -
Repeat STEP 3 to attach the Brackets to the drilled holes in the pinch weld. Check for level then fully tighten all hardware.
