IMPORTANT NOTES FOR THIS INSTALLATION:
1. Do not drill through both walls of frame. Drill only through wall of frame to which bracket is mounted.
2.Find parallel rows of bed sill spot welds in bed of truck. No drilling should be done in the 4" between parallel rows of spot
welds where the bed sill sits.
3. Remove jounce block from
bottom of frame on both sides.
4. When brackets are in place
one of the front 2 holes should
line up with a hole in the frame.
A hole will need to be drilled in
the frame at the rearward
bracket hole.
5. Pull carriage bolts with bolt
plates (using supplied pull wire)
through the hole in the bottom
of frame (where the jounce
block was removed) and through
the rear hole in each bracket.
On the forward brackets, a carriage
bolt, bolt plate and a 1" washer
should be pulled through the
forward hole. Rearward brackets
should have a carriage bolt, bolt
plate and 13/16" washer pulled
through.
6. Replace the jounce block.
