⚠️ Installation Notes
Bracket Set (Important): Use the special front and rear bracket set included with this package (SKU 2333.1884.1.6.RK) to mount the skid plate to the frame and to the recovery points. Disregard the brackets supplied individually with the skid plate and with the recovery points.
Tap Recommendation: It’s good practice to use a tap on all included hardware and bracketry, or run the bolts into the nut plates a few times before installation to ensure ease of final assembly. We use zinc flake coating on all fasteners, and there may be some residual coating left in the threads.
Product Notice: Product specifications, materials, and designs are subject to change without notice. Such changes will not affect product fitment or structural performance.
