Disclaimer
This product is not DOT approved and for offroad use only. By installing this product, you are assuming all responsibility for any property damages or personal injury from use or abuse of this product.
Only use kinetic type recovery straps when freeing a stuck vehicle. The stretching of the strap greatly reduces strain on both vehicles and requires less energy to recover the stuck vehicle. Chains or tow straps are ok for towing a vehicle only.
They are never ever to be used for pulling out a stuck vehicle because they 'shock load' the recovery points, which break things and people... Winching with steel or synthetic cable is fine because no shock load is applied but traditional safety measures should still be taken.

Remove stock plastic bumper using this write up. viewtopic.php?f=104&t=41683

Save the reusable plastic rivets.

Remove crash caps to reveal the unibody openings. Remove tow hooks if installed.

On the driver side, carefully remove the clip holding the power steering cooler lines to the radiator support as shown.

Image


Slide nut strips into the unibody openings and align with existing holes.

Hold shackle mount to the unibody and insert two bolts from below into the inline slotted holes using washers. Run them in about half way so the shackle mount can still move side to side.

Image

Install the 'nut on a wire' by holding by the wire and inserting into the rectangular hole in the bottom of the crossmember as shown.

Image

Insert bolt into the last hole and carefully thread into the nut plate (nut on a wire) This may take a couple tries, and be careful not to cross thread the nut.

Image

Tighten all bolts to 70 ft lbs.

Repeat other side, reinstall crash caps and bumper.

Use the provided reusable plastic push rivets to replace the ones you drilled out.
