BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• The Elite Bumper is designed to accept a wide variety of mid frame winches. Standard 4-1/2” x 10”, 4-1/2” x 6” short drum and 4-1/2” x 10” offset mounting holes are available. Some winches mounted in some locations may require sheet metal trimming. The Warn PowerPlant must be mounted in the offset position and will require trimming of the top of the Jeep bumper mounting plate. The Warn 9.5ti and 9.5cti mounted in the center position will require trimming of the plate but will require no trimming in the offset position. The Warn ZEON must be mounted in the center position and will require trimming of both mounting plates. • Models equipped with factory fog lamps will need to have the wires lengthened before installing in the outboard locations in the Elite Bumper. Additional wire and connectors are included in this kit as well as special brackets for installing factory fog lamps. • 2012 Jeep JK’s are equipped with a canister mounted to the inside of the driver side frame rail, behind the bumper. This must be relocated and the metal bracket trimmed before bumper installation. Instructions on how to do this are included. • The Elite Bumper is not compatible with the factory skid plate. It will not be reinstalled after installation of the WARN Elite Bum - per
