STEP 4: INSTALLING CLAMPS ON TRUCK WITH FACTORY TIE

DOWN SYSTEM

HARDWARE USED:

Before shimming and installing the rail clamps make sure the canister is centered between
the truck bed rails.

Take the Clamp Rail Grips (1) and slide 2 on each rail, 6-12” from the
canister and 6-12” from the tailgate.

At this time you must Install the tailgate end of the pull strap to
the underside of the drivers side rail using the #8-32 x 3/4 machine
screw located at the tailgate end on the underside of the rail. (Figure
5b) You must take the screw out, put it through the tailgate end of the
pullstrap and then install it back in to the rail.

With the tailgate closed, slide the rails to establish the correct spacing to the tailgate. The
rails have rubber spacers on the end caps, to establish the correct spacing (1/16”) and to
prevent the tailgate from striking the rails when closing. Once the rails are correctly placed
open the tailgate.

Install the Rail Grip Blocks (2) into the track system on the truck bed. Position them behind
the Clamp Rail Grips (1)

The between the rail measurement should be 45 3/16”. Use the shims to achieve this
measurement on the front clamp assembly and the tailgate end clamp assembly, take the
Clamp Shims (3) and the Clamp Spacer (4) and fi t them behind the Clamp Rail Grip (1) and
up against the inner bed rail lip.

Take the Clamp Rail bolt (5) with the Lock Washer (6) and Flat Washer (7) and put it through
the Clamp Rail Grip (1) and thread it into the Rail Grip Block (2). Tighten the bolts making
sure the rails stay level with the truck bed rails as you tighten.

Place the 4 allen screws (8) in the clamp rail grips as indicated in Figure 5a and tighten
them.

Remeasure the distance between the rails (45 3/16”) at the canister and tailgate. This
distance should be the same to allow your cover to operate properly.

Reinstall the OE tie down bar caps.
