10. Drill and attach rack brackets to truck bed.
Ensure legs and rack are square and rack is positioned correctly on the truck bed rails. Mark the hole
positions on all four legs (3 holes per leg bracket – 2 on top and 1 on the inside)
Examine the truck bed underneath the marked areas to see if access is available to attach nuts to bolts.
If no access is available, drill 1/4” dia holes and use 3/8” hex lag bolts with lock washers.
If access is available, drill 3/8” holes in all locations where marked. Using (12) 3/8-16 x 1-1/4” hex bolts,
(12) 3/8” split lock washers and (12) 3/8”-16 nuts, secure the rack to the truck.
11. Tighten all nuts and bolts
Tighten the rack attachment bolts installed in step 9 first before tightening any other rack bolts. Proceed
next to the HD brace nuts. Continue around the rack and tighten all remaining nuts and bolts securely.
Tighten until lock washers are flat but DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
12. Check all rack hardware to make sure all nuts and bolts have been tightened.
For best use, spread the load out evenly across the crossbars.
