Figure 6
Figure 5
The Measurements in figures 4, 5 & 6 are guidelines, If your measurements are close to these numbers, re-check clearances.
If vehicle and/or trailer has any added bed vanity accessories (i.e. fairings, air dams, ground effects, bed rails, etc.)
additional dimensioning and clearance checks have to be made. CPP is not responsible for damage incurred due to
disregarding these clearance checks.
CAUTION: A minimum clearance between the bumper and trailer (Measured at the same height) of 2 ft. is
recommended. Due to Vehicle and RV Trailer variations; it is necessary to check this clearance. If the clearance is
less than the minimum, this can be done after installation by making a slow turn, in a controlled driving environment
(i.e. closed parking lot, grass field, etc.) with the aid of an observer to watch for interference.
