636 Crash Cage Installation
There are several steps to installing your cage.
Please follow these steps carefully.
TOOLS NEEDED
3/8 drive ratchet, extension and 9/16 socket
¼ drive ratchet, extension, and 9/16 socket
8mm Allen socket or T-Handle
For starters, open your hardware kit and identify all of the bolts.
There will be 3 allen bolts. The one with the silver nut is for the right front mount. The long one without the nut is for the left mount and the short one is for the lower mount. One long bolt for the rear, and 1 spacer which is for the left side of the cage at the front engine mount. Take the 2nd longest Allen bolt and slide it through the front mount of the left side cage. Place the spacer onto the bolt. Take your long rear engine mount bolt and leave one of the nuts on it. Slide it through the rear engine mount first until the front mount bolt can be threaded in. Do NOT snug up the front engine mount bolt yet. Make sure that the rear mount bolt is sticking out of the frame on the other side. Next take your other Allen bolt (the one with the nut) and run it through the front mount on the right side. Get the rear mount bolt through the mount first and turn the nut down a few turns. Do NOT snug it up yet. Now turn the front engine mount bolt in a few turns. Next you will install the lower Allen bolt (short one) into the lower mountconnecting the 2 sides. Then go to the rear mount and tighten it up with the 1/4in drive ratchet and socket. Next you will tighten up the lower engine mount bolt. Lastly tighten the front motor mount bolts up and you are finished.

Re: SI cage installation
Thanks. I guess I was confused because the spacers came on the allen head bolts that are for the front motor mount, which made me think I was supposed to have one on each side of the front motor mount not that I was supposed to use one on the rear and one on the front of the left side where there are no lock nuts.
