Note that attaching the riser prior to installing the base into the vehicle is suggested.
Tools needed for installation are 9/16” deep socket and ½” box end wrench for attachment a riser if being used.
1. Move the passenger side seat to its rear most position.
2. Locate the two front seat frame nuts holding the passenger side seat to the floor board. The one closest to the
passenger side door may be located within the seat track. The nut closest to the center of the vehicle may be
under a piece of plastic trim but is located outside of the seat track toward the inside of the seat frame. Both have
a star shape nut and can be loosened using a 9/16’ deep socket and socket wrench.
3. Loosen the two nuts holding the front of the passenger side seat to the floor board. Only loosen enough to pass
the no drill base in between the seat frame legs and the floor board.
4. Once there is enough room for the base, slide the base under the seat so that the notches align with the seat studs
projecting upward from the floor board. Make sure the back of each slot engages the seat studs.
5. Using the 9/16” socket and socket wrench, fully tighten the seat frame nuts to secure the base in place. Torque
nuts to 39 ft lbs.
The use of the stabilizer foot is recommended to reduce bounce in all applications.
Simply replace one of the carriage bolts holding the pole system or riser in place with
the stabilizer foot as shown. You will need a ½”box wrench to tighten the hardware.
The part number for the stabilizer foot kit is RAM-FOOT2. Slide the bolt
through the foot, slide a lock washer over the thread so it rest on the foot. Place a nut
over the thread and tighten to secure the foot over the head of the bolt. Place the
foot up through the base from the bottom. Tighten the nut so that it forces the foot
down against the floor. Secure with remaining nut and washers on top. Place the
bolt up from the bottom and through the base prior to positioning the base into the
vehicle.
