Installation

1. Mocking Up the Installation:

• Choose a side: You can install the kit on either the passenger or driver's side (passenger side is demonstrated).

• Wipe down the tow hook: Ensure it’s clean for a good clamp fit.

• Positioning the bracket:

  • Hold the bracket up to the tow hook.
  • Center the plate between the two sensors.
  • Align the slot with the tow hook.

2. Assembling the Bracket:

• Insert the nuts:
  • Insert 4 nuts into the back of the front bracket.
  • The production parts will have a snug fit.
• Position the backplate behind the tow hook.
• Attach the front plate:
  • Place it over the tow hook with the "snout" towards the top to clamp the tow hook in between the mounting pieces.
  • Position the mounting plate over the front bracket, aligning it with the slot.

3. Bolting It Up:

• Insert bolts with washers into all four corners of the mounting plate and finger-tighten them.
• Tighten the bolts using the 5/32 inch Allen key: Expect a snug fit due to the Nylock nuts.
• Ensure a uniform gap between the top and bottom of the clamped parts for a secure fit.

4. Attaching Your License Plate:

• Mount the license plate:
  • If using the BuiltRight license plate frame, insert the small screws with washers through the frame and the plate.
  • Start the screws loosely in all four corners, then tighten them.
  • Note: Sometimes powder coating can make it harder to start the screws—be patient and use gentle pressure.

5. Adjusting and Finalizing the Installation:

• Mounting flexibility:
  • You can adjust the plate up, down, or side-to-side within the mounting envelope.
  • The positioning demonstrated is a good starting point.
• Test for sensor interference:
  • If the proximity sensors trigger on your dash, you may need to adjust the placement slightly.
