We recommend building the rack on a workbench, and then using 3 friends or a hoist to
position the completed rack on the floor of the van. If this is not possible, then you will have
to build the rack on the roof of the van as set forth below.
Place the rear bow (this is the one with the triangular Spring/Damper Mount Item -048
attached) on top of the van with the Kargo Master decal facing the back of the van.
Position the rear bow about 16" forward of the back of the van as shown below.
If you are installing a driver side Drop-Down Mechanism 40863, open box, find Item -048
Spring/Dampener Mount and attach it to the FRONT Cross Bow NOW using 2 x 3/8 x 1
carriage bolt, flat washer and lock nut.
Place the front bow on top of the van with the Kargo Master decal facing the front of the
van. Position the front bow so that there is about 67 5/8" between the bows as shown below.
