NEED Help w/ WAAG!

I am working on installing my WAAG bar and it has been the biggest gosh darn pain in the @$$. If it can go wrong, it either has or is. Can somebody tell me if I need to cut my valance to get the lower brackt on?

Thanks for the help!

Mike

Yeah...I had one of those mornings today too...but other than Murphy's law, I dont believe that you have to cut the valance.....at least im like 90% sure. Take the valance off, install the WAAG and then reinstall your lower valance

You dont need to cut anything, you must have the brackets up side down.

Here is my truck when i had a waag, and i even put tow hooks on right after (not shown in pic)

you also DO NOT have to take the bumper or vallance off to install it, just loosen the bumper a lil bit

I have spoken with Robin over at GE tonight. He no longer sells them, he just happened to have one left over and I got it. You can call WAAG and ask for one if you want. Ask for Irma(I think thats the name he said).

I'm a little late, but I know when I did mine they had the lower mounts mislabeled. Driver's side actually went on passenger side and vice-versa.

But get those pics up brotha!

EDIT: NVM, I saw the pix thread...
