[The-shorey]

are they actually meant to be there??????
confused now. Has someone just added these, and should it only be held on
at the tow hooks??

Looks like it could be for a later model like mine? I have a kind of "crumple zone" with a plate in front of the tow point.

Look at the last two pics here...

they seem to be attatched to the brackets that bolt to the original mounting plates. If not then maybe you'll have to drill and bolt them to the bumper.

ok i've found it PHEW!!!
they go through the grill in the lower part of the front bumper.
theres a crossmember under the rad with 2 nice holes in, so i assume they
fit there. Was beginnin to think i'd bought sumit that wont fit, as usual lol

That's the same bar as mine (Chillitt take note for removal purposes...). Those bits do indeed go through two slots at the top of the valance. Just kid of offer the bar up to the front of the truck and they'll point at where they go .

The plastics the crumple zone on a gen 3 lol

Just to add, the brackets are “handed” and will have an “L” and “R” stamped on them to show correct orientation. You may have to a cut wedge shaped slot either side in the front valance to get these brackets to fit (I did). Just cut the plastic with a serrated blade.
