instructions
NOTE: Some components were removed from illustrations for clarity purposes.
In the below illustrations, mostly LH side shown. Repeat for RH side if needed.
Please refer to appropriate online SERVICE MANUAL if needed.
Before installing the mounting plate:
- 1 - Determine if your vehicle is equipped with chassis protector (underbelly skid plate) or suspension arm guards. If this is the case, refer to the PREPARING A-ARMS AND SKID PLATES topic.
- 2 - Determine if your vehicle is equipped with the proper winch cable guide. If this is not the case, refer to: CHANGING THE WINCH CABLE GUIDE topic.
- 3 - Follow the installation steps for the mounting plate.
NOTE: If the vehicle is not new, make sure there is no dirt between the frame protector (underbelly skid plate) and the frame. It is IMPERATIVE to have a perfectly clean support surface between the frame and the protector. If in doubt, remove the guard, clean it and reinstall on vehicle.
vehicle preparation
Changing the Winch Cable Guide
1. Take the winch cable out about 1 m (3.3 ft).
2. Disconnect the battery.
NOTICE Always disconnect battery before doing any electrical installation. Always disconnect battery in this specified order, BLACK (–) cable first. Do not place tools on battery.
3. Remove the cable hook by removing the cotter pin and clevis pin.

Preparing A-Arms and Skid Plates
Preparation time is approximately 0.4 hour for plastic triangular arm protectors.
Preparation time is approximately 0.6 hour for aluminum triangular arm protectors.
1. Using the appropriate workshop equipment and If the vehicle is equipped with A-arm protectors, lift the front of the vehicle safely. Lock the vehicle in this position. Remove the front wheels.
2. If the vehicle is equipped with A-arm protectors, refer to the “OPERATIONS CHART - A-arm protectors” to determine the type of protectors and the appropriate operations to be performed.
- If the vehicle has one of these A-arm protectors go to step 3.
- If the vehicle does not have any of these A-arm protectors, go directly to step 4.
3. Remove the protectors and attach the drilling template (with adhesive tape) on the protector using the markers illustrated according to the protector template. Then:
- Mark the holes to be drilled using a centre punch and a hammer.
- Mark the cuts to be made.
- Remove the drilling template.
- Perform the operations indicated in the operations chart.
NOTICE When drilling the skid plate, drill the indicated holes to the correct diameter
