F.
Drill four 5/16” holes through the fender using the holes in bracket PB5071
as a guide (Figure 8).
a.
Install the 5/16” x 1 ¼” bolts through the bracket and into the fender.
d.
Use 5/16” fender washers and 5/16” nuts provided with the kit on
the underside of the fender.
Recommended torque is 10-15 ft-lbs.
Step 4
If possible, position the mounting brackets so they are
located within 15” of the bottom of the fender. This
protects against wind blowing the leading edge of the
fender back into the tire (Figure 9).
Tip:
If the front fender bracket is mounted higher
than 15”, refer

for
further suggestions on adding ad
d
itional support.
STEP 5
A. Attach the bracket (PB5010) to the fender.
a.
Drill six 5/16” holes through the fender using the
holes in bracket PB5010 as a guide.
b.
Install the 5/16” x 1” bolts through the bracket and
into the fender.
c.
Use six 5/16” fender washers and 5/16” nuts
provided with the kit on the underside of the fender.
d.
Tighten the bolts. Recommended torque is 10-
15 ft-lbs.
e. Make sure the fenders are square and aligned
(Figure 10). Twists or
bows in the fender will fatigue the
material over time.
STEP 6
A. For trucks with air suspension, raise and lower the suspension one final time to confirm
that there is adequate clearance between the fenders and wheels.
B. Recheck all brackets and bolts to ensure they are tightened to the recommended torque
