Step 3 : Insert the second rail from
the drivers side wheel well above the
frame. Rest the rail on both chassis
frame rails ( Figure 11 ).
Step 4 : One rail should be rearward and the other rail forward. The rails should be
centered with both ends of each rail resting evenly on the frame. After rails are
inserted and in place the flanged area of the bed liner can be straightened with
vice grips or pliers, be sure to use a soft cloth before gripping flange to
prevent scratching. If flanged area is scratched immediately follow
manufacturer’s recommended method of touching up scratched area to
prevent rust or other corrosion.
Step 2 : Slide the rail rearward,
parallel with axle, resting on both
frame rails, and as close as possible
to the rear hat channel ( Figure 10 ).
