ShoreLand'r LUB40TABXLW - Manual (Page 17)

Mounting Instructions:
The first step in mounting the spare tire bracket is to
determine the correct orientation of the trailer.
Standing at the rear of the trailer and looking
forward, your right hand is the right-hand side of the
trailer.
Mount the spare tire bracket on the right-hand side
frame of your trailer at a location somewhere
between the very front of the frame and the first
cross member. The exact positioning is dependant
upon the size and style of your boat.
Once identified, attach the spare tire bracket to the
side frame using the U-bolts provided in the kit.
Note that the spare tire bracket is designed to fit
both 2” x 4” and 2” x 5” side frames. Use the 1/2” x
4-9/16” x 3-1/2” U-bolt when mounting to the 2” x 4”
side frame and the 1/2” x 5-9/16” x 3” U-bolts when
mounting to the 2” x 5” side frame.
Place the U-bolts over the side frame in the desired
location. Match the holes in the spare tire bracket
with the U-bolts just placed over the side frame.
Slide the spare tire bracket over the U-bolts. Secure
using 1/2” lock¬ washers and hex nuts. Tighten
when desired location is achieved
The spare tire bracket is designed to fit a 5 bolt on
4.5” bolt circle pattern wheel. Note that there are
only three stud bolts in the spare tire bracket which
are sufficient to carry the tire and wheel assembly.
Align the three studs with the holes in the wheel
assembly and secure the wheel assembly to the
spare tire bracket with three- 1/2” tapered lug nuts
provided in the kit. Tighten securely to make sure
the wheel assembly does not come loose and fall
off while transporting the trailer.
Installation is complete.
NOTE: This spare tire bracket MUST BE
MOUNTED back on the side of the
trailer so that the tire DOES NOT block
the front side marker light. This light
MUST be visible 45° to the rear to
comply with Code of Federal
Regulations 49CFR571.108 lighting
regulations
