How to Install Steel Craft Bull Bar w/ 20 in. LED Light Bar on your F-150

1. REMOVE CONTENTS FROM BOX. VERIFY ALL PARTS ARE PRESENT. READ
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION.

NOTE: It may be necessary to remove/relocate the front license plate and license plate
bracket. It is not required, but strongly recommended. If local/state law requires a
license plate, license plate relocation kit is available.

NOTE: It may be necessary to remove the lower plastic portion of the bumper to gain
access to the ends of the frame rails. The indented pockets in the lower bumper will
need to be cut out to allow the Mounting Brackets to pass through.

2. Vehicles with Factory Tow Hooks

Remove tow hooks by removing the front bolt and only loosening the rear bolt. Slide the
tow hooks off. Keep the factory double nut plate in the frame and aligned with the holes.

NOTE: This Bull Bar is not compatible with the factory tow hooks, so you will not be
reinstalling the tow hooks.

Position the Mounting Bracket up to the bottom of the frame and secure it with the
factory tow hook bolts and factory double nut plate, (Figure 1).

Vehicles without Tow Hooks

Starting on the driver side of the vehicle, insert (1) 12mm Bolt Plate through the opening in the open front end of the frame and down through the rear hole in the bottom of the frame, (Figure 2). Thread (1) 12mm x 24mm OD x 2.5mm Flat Washer, (1) 12mm Lock Washer and (1) 12mm Hex Nut onto the threaded end of the Bolt Plate. Slide the slotted end of the driver side Mounting Bracket under the nut and washers. Insert the second 12mm Bolt Plate through the remaining hole toward the front of the Mounting Bracket. Secure with (1) 12mm Lock Washer, (1) 12mm x 24 mm OD x 2.5mm Flat Washer and (1) 12mm Hex Nut. Snug but do not tighten the hardware at this time.

Vehicles with "closed ends" on front of frame

Starting on the driver side of the vehicle, locate the two holes on the bottom of the
frame. Insert (1) 10mm U-Bolt into one hole and out the other, (Figure 3A & 3B). Hold
the driver side Mounting Bracket in position with the slotted end toward the rear. Secure
the Mounting Bracket to the U-Bolt with (2) 10mm x 27mm OD x 3 mm Flat Washers,
(2) 10mm Lock Washers and (2) 10mm Hex Nuts, (Figure 4). Snug but do not tighten
the hardware.

3. Repeat the appropriate Step 3 for the passenger side Mounting Bracket installation.

4. With help position the Bull Bar on the inside of the Mounting Brackets. Use the included (4) 12mm x 35mm Hex Bolts, (4) 12mm lock Washers, (8) 12mm Flat Washers and (4) 12mm Hex Nuts to attach the Bull Bar to the Mounting Brackets, (Figure 5). Do not tighten at this time.

5. Align and adjust the Bull Bar properly, and tighten all hardware.

6. Do periodic inspections to the installation to make sure that all hardware is secure and tight.
