READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. CUTTING MAY BE REQUIRED. INSTALLATION MAY INTERFERE WITH FRONT MOUNTED SENSORS. DO NOT USE LIGHT BAR AND/OR BRACKETS FOR TOWING/PULLING. NOTE: It may be necessary to remove/relocate front license plate and license plate bracket. It is not required, but strongly recommended. If local/state law requires a front license plate, license plate relocation kit is available. 1. Start installation from under the passenger side, front of the vehicle. Determine if the vehicle is equipped with tow hooks. Vehicles without tow hooks: It will be necessary to cut out the indented area in both sides of the plastic bumper insert to clear the Brackets as pictured, (Figures 1 & 2). IMPORTANT: Make several small cuts for best fit. Do not cut through the top edge of the panel. Once both openings have been cut, continue on to Step 2. Tow Hook equipped vehicles: a. Remove the factory hardware attaching the tow hook to the end of each frame channel, (Figure 3A & 3B). It is not necessary to remove the tow hook, only remove the hardware. NOTE: On 2014 and newer models, the hardware on the driver side may be difficult to

2 remove and assistance is highly recommended on these models. The following info only applies to the 2014-on GM models. Tow hook hardware removal: Remove the hex bolts securing the driver side of the bumper to the bracket. Use a short pry bar or large screwdriver to move the tab on the bumper bracket up and away to clear the hex bolt and slide it out past the bumper bracket, (Figures 3A & 3B). b. Remove the trim and seal around both tow hooks if equipped, (Figures 3B & 4). c. Check for Bracket clearance and cut opening if necessary, (Figure 4). 2. Line up the (2) slots in the passenger side Mounting Bracket with the (2) holes in the outer side of the frame channel for the tow hook, (Figure 5). a. Models without tow hooks: Select (1) 12mm Double Bolt Plate, (Figure 6A). Insert the Bolt Plate into the open end of the frame, through the (2) holes in the side of the frame and out through the Bracket, (Figure 6B). Secure the Bracket to the Bolt Plate with (2) 12mm Flat Washers and (2) 12mm Nylon Lock Nuts. Snug but do not fully tighten hardware at this time. b. Models with tow hooks: Use the tow hook hardware to attach the Bracket to the frame. Do not tighten hardware at this time, (Figures 5 & 6B). 3. Repeat Steps 1 & 2 to install the driver side Mounting Bracket, (Figure 7). IMPORTANT: The driver side Bracket has (2) mounting slots. Attach the Bracket to the frame using the forward mounting slot, (Figure 8B). a. Models without tow hooks: Insert (1) 12mm x 35mm Single Bolt Plate into the open end of the frame as described in Step 2, (Figure 8A). Attach the driver side Bracket to the outside of the frame with (1) 12mm Flat Washer and (1) 12mm Nylon Lock Nut, (Figure 8B). Snug but do not fully tighten hardware at this time. b. Models with tow hooks: Use the tow hook hardware, (long cross bolt), to attach the driver side Bracket to the outside of the frame, (Figure 8B & 9). Snug but do not fully tighten hardware at this time. 4. With assistance, hold the EVO3 Light Bar up in position on the outside of the Mounting Brackets, (Figure 10). Bolt the mounting tabs on the Light Bar to the Brackets with (4) 8mm x 30mm Hex Bolts, (4) 8mm Lock Washers and (4) 8mm Flat Washers, (Figure 11). Do not tighten hardware at this time. 5. Select the Light Mount Cross Bar, (Figure 12). Attach the Cross Bar to the top of the tabs on the Mounting Brackets with (4) 8mm Hex Bolts, (4) 8mm Lock Washers and (4) 8mm Flat Washers, (Figure 13). Do not tighten hardware at this time. 6. Check the EVO3 Light Bar alignment with the vehicle and the bumper. Adjust as required then starting with the frame Bracket hardware, fully tighten all hardware at this time. Tighten the supplied 8mm hardware to 18-20ft-lbs, the 12mm hardware to 35-40ft-lbs and tow hook hardware to 45-50ft-lbs. 7. If installing an accessory light at this time, select the (2) L Universal Light Brackets, (Figure 14). Replace the brackets included with the light with the (2) Universal Brackets. Attach the Brackets to the long slot in either side of the Light Mount Cross Bar Bracket with the included (2) 8mm Hex Bolts, (4) 8mm Flat Washers and (2) 8mm Nylon Lock Nuts. 8. Follow the instructions provided by the light manufacturer to attach the light to the (2) Brackets and to install the electrical wiring. 9.
