Usage Features:

The installation process involves several steps:

Fairlead Bracket Installation:
- Remove the two upper 10mm screws and two lower Torx head screws holding the small grille plate, then remove the grille plate completely. Removing the full grille piece may ease installation.
- Position the fairlead bracket and loosely secure it with two 12mm hex head bolts in the upper bracket holes and two 8mm bolts in the lower holes.
- Tighten all fairlead bracket hardware to the specified torque.
- Install the fairlead (from the winch kit) using the two center holes in the fairlead bracket.
Winch Mount Bracket Installation:
- Unplug the differential tube and push it aside to create room for the winch mount.
- Carefully slide the winch mount bracket between the right A-arms (left facing front of vehicle) and rest it on top of the differential.
- Install two 10mm carriage bolts through the winch mount's upper holes and the vehicle frame, hand tightening only at this stage.
- Install two 10mm hex head bolts through the front (A-arm support) and the inner lower winch mounting plate holes.
- Tighten all winch mount hardware to the specified torque.
- Re-install the differential hose.
Winch Installation:
- Install the winch to the winch mounting bracket using hardware provided in the winch kit.
- Feed the winch rope through the back of the fairlead and out the front.
- Re-install the grille plate.
- Install the hook (from the winch kit) to the winch rope.
