INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1. Place the unit over the wheelwell, as close to the wall as possible. Mark the two floor mounting holes where the
front flange comes in contact with the floor rib. Remove the unit and pre-drill the floor mounting locations with an 1/8" drill bit,
then re-drill the hole with a 5/16" drill bit. If there is a floor mat, then Floor Mounting Spacers are re quired. Cut the floor mat
around the 5/16" holes with the 1" hole saw, allowing Floor Mounting Spacers to rest against the metal floor.
DO NOT DRILL
THROUGH THE VAN FLOOR WITH THE HOLE SAW.
STEP 2. Move the unit back into position. Fasten unit to van floor using two (2) 1/4-20 x 1-1/4" Hex Head Bolts, 1/4" Flat
Washers, Floor Mounting Spacers (if applicable), second set of 1/4" Flat Washers and 1/4-20 Nylon Lock Nuts. (See example
bolting solutions below).
NOTE: One (1) Blind Fastener and Lock Washer have been provided in case through-bolting is impossible due to heat shields,
floor channels, fuel lines, etc. If Blind Fastener installation is necessary, redrill the 5/16" mounting holes with 13/32" drill bit. See
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR BLIND FASTENERS on page 4.
