1. On Wrangler TJ models remove the 4 screws that
mount the transfer case pivot assembly from the
body of the vehicle (it will be necessary to roll floor
mat back to gain access to the bolts under the dri-
ver’s side transmission tunnel).
2. Remove the 3 bolts on each side of transfer case
skid plate and lower down enough to install new
square tube spacers between skid plate and frame.
1987-02 models use the flat socket head bolts sup-
plied. (2003 models will use the 12mm bolts and
washers supplied). Also apply a few drops of sup-
plied thread lock compound on bolt threads prior to
installing. Tighten bolts to 75-80 ft.lbs. (Picture #1)
* On 2003 models, also remove the 2 engine skid
plate bolts. Install the small square tube spac-
ers at the mounting points on the frame rails,
along with the 12mm bolts supplied. 2.5” kits
will use the 1” square tube spacers. 4” kits
will use the 1.5” spacer.
3. On Wrangler TJ models install the new transfer
case linkage pivot drop bracket to stock pivot pivot
bracket using stock screws. Using the two 1/4 x 1"
bolts with a flat washer and self locking nut, bolt
the ball swivel bracket (arrow in picture #2) to new
drop bracket (bracket now has two sets of holes:
bottom holes for 4" lift as shown or next to bottom

tion, start end of rod through ball swivel. Now bolt
