| 1) Using
jack stands, place sliders at desired position on
vehicle. Center bars front to rear between wheel
openings. Tilt bars up approximately 15 degrees but make
sure that both doors will open without hitting the bars.
2) Cut legs to fit between frame and
bars. Cut
front leg tube on each side at an angle to match frame. Center
and rear legs can all be cut straight. (skip this step if you
purchased fully welded sliders)
3) If mounting bars up close to
body, maintain 1/4" gap between body and bars to prevent
vibrations. Mark body pinch weld with marker for cutting as
necessary.
4) Tack weld notched end of legs to
sliders. Remove sliders and fully weld legs to bars. (skip this
step if you purchased fully welded sliders)
5) Cut half moon shaped sections
from pinch weld to clear legs.
6) Place fully welded bars onto
stands. Weld bars directly to frame. Make sure to maintain 1/4"
gap between body and bars.
7) Cover lower body with cardboard.
Clean bars with degreasing fluid. Paint and primer as desired.
