The suggested weight capacity is 400 lbs., with weight distributed evenly over the entire area of
the rack. If severe off road conditions are prevalent, because of side sway on severe side hill
driving conditions, capacity should not exceed 150 lbs.

assembled, position the Warrior decal centered across the joints on each side and press on.
2. Assemble the four (4) gutter brackets per the sample already assembled in your kit.
3. Install gutter brackets on Jeep gutters starting with the rear first. Top holes of brackets should
be approximately 22” from the rear of the Jeep.

holes.
5. Tighten carriage bolts until clamps are tight on the gutters at all four corners.

drilled. Remove basket for drilling. Use a 3/8” drill bit to drill a total of 8 holes.
