Remove the front bumper cover
A. Begin by removing the dust covers that are located underneath the vehicle. Use the 10mm socket to remove the OEM bolts and then the 7mm Nut driver to removed all the OEM screws along the sub-front portion of the bumper.
B. Locate and remove all other fasteners that attach the OEM bumper cover to the vehicle. Once you’ve removed the fasteners, slowly remove the bumper cover. Note that some vehicles may have the foam bumper protector inside, where some may have the plastic protector. The Pro-gard Push Bumper was designed for the plastic protector.

Machining Instructions:
NOTE: Stand position is determined upon valve length and rocker pivot length. Please refer to the chart below to determine the proper machining dimensions.
1) MEASURE VALVE TIP TO SPRING SEAT DIMENSION (DIM A) AND REFER TO “Z” COORDINATE (DIM B) ON CHART. MILL OEM ROCKER PEDISTALS DOWN FLUSH WITH THE TOP OF THE HEAD BOLT BOSS BETWEEN #1 & 3 INTAKE VALVE. THIS IS YOUR .000” Z HEIGHT. MILL REMAINDER OF ROCKER PEDISTAL TO COORDINATES LISTED UNDER DIM B.
2) SET THE “X” .000” TO THE CENTERLINE OF #3 & 5 EXHAUST VALVES. SET THE “Y” .000” TO THE CENTER OF THE FACTORY 3/8 SHAFT MOUNTING BOLTS ALREADY MACHINED IN THE HEAD.
3) DRILL AND TAP 9/16-12 X .750” DEEP AT “X” AND “Y” COORDINATES LISTED FOR VALVE LENGTH AND ROCKER BODY BEING USED. INSTALL SUPPLIED INSERTS INTO HEAD.
4) ATTACH ROCKER STAND USING SUPPLIED BOLTS AND TORQUE TO 45 FT/LBS.

Installation of Full Tilt Street Rods’ Crossmember Kit is easy because we have designed all the correct angles onto our crossmember. You must make a couple of measurements to correctly place the crossmember and spring mounts before welding. Minor adjustments may be needed for some variations in your frame. We recommend that all welding be done by a qualified welder using accepted procedures. We also recommend that a professional alignment shop do all wheel alignment.
