How to Install RedRock 4x4 3 in. Bull Bar w/ Skid Plate & 20 in. Single Row LED Light Bar - Black (04-17 All, Excluding Raptor) on your Ford 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).

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.
