REMOVAL
1. Raise and support the vehicle (Refer to LUBRICA-
TION & MAINTENANCE/HOISTING - STANDARD
PROCEDURE).
2. Remove the front skid plate (2 - if equipped) (Refer
to 13 - FRAME & BUMPERS/FRAME/FRONT SKID
PLATE - REMOVAL).

3. On the 2WD models, remove the bolts (2) and
remove the crossmember (1).
CAUTION: Do not use any flame or plasma cutting
equipment to cut the frame in this procedure. This
is due to the inaccurate nature of the cut-line and
the fact that the high temperatures achieved dur-
ing flame or plasma cutting will change the metal
characteristics and may weaken the frame and/or
repair location.
4. On SRT-10 vehicles, remove the welds using a
grinder or equivalent.
5. On the 4WD models, remove the bolts (1) and
remove the crossmember (2).
