STEP ONE
Lower spare tire for access to the winch mechanism attached to the lower side of the frame cross-member with four flange type mounting bolts. Locate and remove the mounting bolt on the left side of the winch mechanism. Install U-bracket using the existing mounting bolt. Position the U-bracket as pictured and tighten the mounting bolt.
STEP TWO
Install the lock bar through the holes in both legs of the U-bracket, with the grooved end facing toward the rear of the vehicle. Place the crimp-ring retainer in the groove and crimp closed with pliers.
STEP THREE
Raise the spare tire while guiding the lower end of lock bar through lug hole least obstructed by the winch cable retaining plate in the center of the wheel. The lock bar must remain vertical as the spare tire is raised to the full up/stored position. |
