PREP BED: TAILGATE BRACKET

NOTE: You will need to grab a pal for this step (or have incredibly long and flexible arms).

• Remove top rear factory compartment bolt from the passenger side with a T40 Torx Driver. Keep bolt.

• Loosely attach passanger side tailgate bracket with factory bolt in top hole. Make sure the tie down opening is

angled toward the driver, not the tailgate; BAG PREP-MT5 or MT7.

• Align bracket so it's parallel with vertical edge of compartment. Tighten factory bolt at last!

• Using the bottom hole in bracket as a guide, drill a 5/16" hole with a 1/2" drill stop through compartment and bed wall.

• Install a 1" bolt through the bracket and bed wall. Install 1" washer and flanged nut and tighten securely;

BAG PREP-MT5 or MT7.

• Repeat driver side unless you don't have a driver's side cubby. If not, follow the instructions for driver's side on

next page. NOTE: On passenger side ONLY, you will need to add a washer; BAG PREP-MT5 or MT7...

We know it's strange, trust us.

HELPFUL TIP: Feel free to remove doors of cubbies

so you can still somewhat use them. Use will be

compromised, but hey, life ain't always fair, right?!

HELPFUL TIP: The power outlet can still be used if you

insert a flat head pigtail extension cord BEFORE you

install the decks. Make sure to have the outlet capped

to keep water out.
