INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
Begin by unpacking all items and inspecting for missing pieces or damage. If you have any concerns, please contact the company the product was purchased from. Extra hardware may be included with the product.
HARDWARE INCLUDED:
- (4) 1/8” Isolators
- (4) 3/16” Isolators
- (2) 7/16” Pin
STEP 1 | Unscrew the pin from the shackle and remove the four isolators from the pin. You may be able to do this by hand, if not use your 3/8” tool.
STEP 2 | Identify what isolators will be used by holding up the shackle
and fitting the isolators between the outside of your bumper mount and the
inside of the shackle.
NOTE: Different variations of isolators will be used based on the
thickness of your bumper D-Ring mount. In our case, our 1” thick D-Ring mount
accepted both 1/8” isolators.
STEP 3 | Once isolators have been selected, hold up the shackle and
isolators, and feed the pin through the shackle.
Once it bottoms out, begin screwing it into the shackle.
STEP 4 | Using a 3/8” ratchet/chuck, being to tighten the pin into the
shackle until secure. The pin should be tight enough that the pin cannot be
loosened by hand.
NOTE: The opening in the pin may have some slack around a 3/8”
rachet/chuck since it is also designed to be used with factory tyre changing
posts (not all applications will work).
STEP 5 | Double check both pins are secure, and you are ready to put your new Elite Series D-Ring to the test!
