need help installing skins front bumper!

[OLD GOAT]

Trying to put on a skinz front bumper on my 2008 dragon. It has the original 08 fat front end . Do you take off the brass looking plate were the upper A-Arm bolts come through, or do you just put the skinzs mounting plate over the Polaris plate? The Polaris plate is rivited on. Directions are very vague. Thanks,

I think it is the lower A-arm, but I'm not sure. I don't have my sled in front of me. To answer your question, yes you remove the Polaris part and replace it with the Skinz bracket. It should be 2 rivets and 2 bolts I believe.

Yes, you remove the factory plate and install the Skinz mounting plate so you can attach the bumper solidly to the chassis. Here is a clear picture that Paul from Sled Solutions posted a couple of seasons ago.

Yes you have to replace the plate. You will have to cut some plastic out of the way. The plate on mine did not fit the bumper correctly, I had to bend the plate a little. But when you are done you will be happy with it, a great inprovement over the plastic POS the factory gave us.
