Rear Wing Install

Hey all,

Happy Holidays to everyone. Anyone have any instructions/advice/tech drawings on how to install a stock rear spoiler onto a 97 4Runner?

I bought it from one of the members here (thanks!) and need to put the thing on when I get it, but the truck has not had one mounted on it before. I know I have to drill some holes so I was curious if anyone had any measurements as to where the brackets go or anything like that. Worst case, I guess I just eyeball it! Thanks for any help.

CB

All,

I used the instructions that he faxed to me and it made it very easy. The only scarey part is drilling holes in your roof of your truck! I did have to go to Lowe's and get the threaded insert things (not sure what they are called) to put in and set in the holes.

Good luck.

Let me find it first then AI'll let you know. How's the weather out there in the Springs? I was there last summer for a few days visiting, didn't have too much time checking things out though.
