Installation of the intercooler was part of the requirement needed to install the Rogue Enforcer Frame Horn Chop front bumper. I installed this bumper myself following the installation of the Intercooler.
It took a couple of hours to install the Intercooler. The most involved part of the intercooler install was removing the shutters from their frame located inside the front of grill. Once the shutters are removed you then remove the frame, that held the shutter flaps in place, and cut the vertical center beam off and trim the bottom of it to fit around the new intercooler. Then you reattach the frame back to the inside face of the grill and you are done.
To install the bumper I had to cut 10” off the front of each frame horn. As a result, I could not use the bottom support mount that comes with the Intercooler.
Instead, the Rogue Enforcer Frame Horn Chop front bumper comes with its own bottom support mount to secure the Intercooler in place.
This involved drilling mount holes and installing nutcerts to secure the bottom support mount for the intercooler to a metal beam that runs between each frame rail.
Installing the nutcerts was the second biggest time consuming effort in the installation process of the bumper. You do not need the expensive tool made to install the nutcerts. Frankly, there likely isn’t enough room to successfully use this tool.
Instead, I successfully followed this guys method:
