Removal and Installation of Stock IX Lip
Hello,
I'm looking for a quick write up or some tips on removing and installing a new IX lip. I'm getting an SE lip in place of my stocker, and just want to know exactly how to remove it and put the new one back on.
Are there any brackets or fittings or extra fasteners I am going to need to install the SE lip? Or will it be just a simple swap with no extra items needed?
Thank you to those of you who have done this already or can provide me with soem useful info.

Basically, its because of the way the SE lip is designed compared to the reg IX lip. 2 pieces are boomerang shaped brackets, and the 3rd is kind of a reinforcement/space filler. Then the rest is just rivets and those annoying fasteners.

Bill, what about the other way around...going from an SE lip to a regular IX?
And if you have a diagram of the specific brackets I would need that would be helpful too, as I am trading another person lips and I could just grab the necessary brackets from him.

Sorry guys, I honestly wish I knew this one. I have had a few customers with aftermarket front shields order SE lips from me, and some took the additional pieces, and some didn't. Might be something good to post up on the forum as a seperate subject.

As for pics, if you have access to a fax, I can gladly send you some pics from CAPS of breakdowns. I'd post them, but CAPS does not let me steel pics off it .
