Appletree Pro Tech Tips

Tip 1: Verify Frame Head Alignment. Before attempting to bolt on your new bumper, measure the mounting points on your vehicle's frame head. Off-road vehicles often experience slight shifting or bending over time. Ensuring your mounting points match the 25 5/8-inch center-to-center specification will prevent unnecessary stress on the bumper brackets during installation.

Tip 2: Prevent Hardware Seizing. When installing your mounting bolts, apply a small amount of anti-seize lubricant to the threads. This is especially important for off-road vehicles exposed to mud, moisture, and road salt, as it ensures you can easily remove or adjust the bumper in the future without snapping a bolt.

Tip 3: Chrome Maintenance in Harsh Conditions. To keep your chrome finish looking like new after a day on the dunes or trails, rinse off any dirt or salt immediately. Periodically apply a high-quality automotive wax or chrome polish to create a protective barrier against pitting and oxidation, ensuring your Manx-style bumper maintains its shine for years to come.
