The ARIES 3" bull bar is made for those who face the uncertain road without fear. This particular model is constructed from 304 stainless steel. 304 stainless is high in nickel content, allowing the bull bar to easily resist water, road salt and rust and maintain its mirror-like polished finish in spite of the elements. Other available finishes include high-gloss black stainless steel, textured black steel and semi-gloss black steel. Customizing the look of your vehicle is simple with the ARIES 3" bull bar. It is equipped with pre-drilled light mounting holes and a removable skid plate. The center crossbar features two pre-drilled holes that readily accept an LED light bar or two LED work lights. The skid plate is made from 304 stainless steel and has a brushed finish to stop rust and hide scratches and scuffs. It also features an aggressive, ARIES-exclusive cutout pattern and can be removed for a customized look. Each ARIES 3" bull bar is made a vehicle-specific design, meaning that for each make and model, the bull bar has a custom bend and unique mounting brackets. This allows for the best possible fit on your vehicle and ensures solid attachment. The brackets also use pre-existing factory holes in the vehicle's frame to eliminate drilling, speed up installation and increase rigidity. This bull bar fits select model years of the Ford F-250 Super Duty, F-350 Super Duty, F-450 Super Duty and F-550 Super Duty (see application info to verify fitment).

Yes, the Curt B35-3012 bull bar is designed for 2011 Super Duty F250 and F350 models. The manual does not specify whether it fits other model years or cab styles, so contact the manufacturer to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle configuration.
The manual notes that it may be necessary to remove or relocate your front license plate and bracket during installation. While not required, removal or relocation is strongly recommended. If your state or local law requires a front license plate, Curt offers a license plate relocation kit as an optional accessory.
The kit includes: 1 bull bar, 1 driver/left side mounting bracket, 1 passenger/right mounting bracket, 4 × 10mm hex bolts (10mm × 30mm), 4 × 10mm nuts, 8 × 10mm flat washers, and 4 × 10mm lock washers. Installation also reuses the factory bumper mount bolts from your vehicle.
No. All fasteners required for installation are included in the kit. The installation reuses your vehicle's factory bumper mount bolts, so no additional hardware purchase is necessary.
The manual does not specify which tools are required for installation. Contact the manufacturer or your installer to confirm what socket sizes, wrenches, or other tools you will need to remove the factory bumper bolts and secure the mounting brackets and bull bar.
The manual states that help is required to position the bull bar on the mounting brackets during step 6. Beyond that, the manual does not specify whether professional installation is necessary. If you are unfamiliar with vehicle modifications or removing bumper bolts, professional installation is recommended.
The manual does not mention disconnecting the battery. Since the installation involves removing bumper bolts and does not involve electrical components, battery disconnection is likely not necessary, but contact the manufacturer to confirm for your specific vehicle.
No. The manual includes a warning: do not remove passenger and driver bumper mount bolts at the same time. Remove one side at a time. This ensures the bumper remains supported during installation.
1. Remove and verify all parts from the box. 2. Remove or relocate the front license plate if necessary. 3. Remove the driver side bumper mount bolts. 4. Position the driver side mounting bracket against the outer gusset bend on the frame with approximately 1/8" clearance between the bottom of the bracket and the bumper, then secure it using the factory bolts and fully tighten. 5. Repeat steps 3–4 for the passenger side mounting bracket. 6. With help, position the bull bar on the outer side of both mounting brackets and attach it using the included hardware, but do not tighten at this time. 7. Level and adjust the bull bar as desired, then tighten all hardware.
No. Step 6 instructs you to attach the bull bar to the mounting brackets but not tighten the hardware at that time. After positioning and leveling the bull bar as desired in step 7, then tighten all hardware.
Leave approximately 1/8" clearance between the bottom of the mounting bracket and the bumper when positioning the bracket against the outer gusset bend on the frame.
Yes. The installation procedure uses the factory bumper mount bolts to secure the mounting brackets to the vehicle. These bolts should be fully tightened after positioning each bracket.
The manual does not provide torque specifications for any fasteners. Contact the manufacturer or your installer to obtain the correct torque values for the 10mm hex bolts and factory bumper mount bolts.
The bull bar is secured to the mounting brackets using four 10mm × 30mm hex bolts, along with 10mm nuts, 10mm lock washers, and 10mm flat washers. The factory bumper mount bolts are used to secure the mounting brackets to the vehicle frame.
The manual does not mention drilling. The installation uses existing factory bumper mount bolt holes and does not appear to require drilling new holes. Confirm with the manufacturer if your vehicle requires any drilling.
After installation, perform periodic inspections to ensure that all hardware is secure and tight. The manual does not specify an inspection interval, so check the hardware regularly, especially after the first few weeks of use and before any long trips.
