9. Lift Frame (#1) onto vehicle, setting the pivot end on the spindle as shown and resting the latch end on
the opposite end. Install second Bearing onto spindle. Install Bearing Cap (#16), M16 Washer (#32)
and Castle Nut (#17) onto spindle. Tighten Castle Nut until all slack is removed from pivot assembly,
but frame still pivots freely. Install Cotter Pin (#18).
10. Tighten bolts on the Pivot Mount Plate (#2). Latch the Latch (#11) to the Catch (#19). Ensure that
the Latch swings freely into place to engage the catch. It may be necessary to adjust the Latch, the
Catch, and/or the Latch Mount to achieve this. Once adjusted, tighten the Latch Mount into place.
11. Adjust Bumper Stops (#24) so that the OE rubber bumpers on the tailgate compress approximately
1/2" when the Tire Carrier is latched.
12. If the Latch (#11) has room above it when it engages the Catch (#19), it may rattle on bumpy terrain.
This gap can be eliminated by installing Shims (#25) between the Ramp (#22) and the Frame (#1)
until the gap is closed.
