Place the large 3/8" washer [E] onto the 3/8"-3 1/2" allen bolt. Then put the bolt through the slot
in the brace, through both holes in the rubber mount block [G], and thread it into
the threaded plate. Do not tighten completely.

Insert the rubber block into the front stake pocket hole.
For Dodge stake holes, it will be necessary to
leave a gap between the plate and the rubber block.
You will need to insert one end of the plate and
move the bolt towards the end of the stake pocket
to allow the other end of the plate to go in.
The rubber block can then be put into the

Using a 7/32" allen wrench or socket, tighten the bolt several turns. The rubber
block will become compressed between the bottom of the brace and the threaded plate installed
in the last step. It is this compression that widens the rubber block and secures the top of the brace
to the bed rail. After tightening the bolt, check to see that the brace feels secured to the bed.
If there is excessive movement of the brace, continue tightening the bolt.

Repeat this process for the passenger side using the right brace [C].

short allen bolt [I], lock washer [J], and flat washer [L].

Tighten the bolt with a 7/32" allen wrench.

If the inner rail of your bed is not flat, you will need to use the spacer [N] to fill the gap between the
bed rail and the brace. If the inner rail is flat, the spacer is not needed and may be discarded.
5
Using the slot in the brace as a guide, drill a 9/32" holes through the spacer (if used) and the
bed rail. You may need to push down on the top of the brace when drilling to close any gap
between the brace and the top of the bed.
PS STEEL CAB RACK BKT 6 OF 7 10/12/2011

Attach the brace to the bed rail using the 1/4" bolt [O], two 1/4" washers [P], and a
1/4" lock nut [M]. Tighten using a 7/16" socket and wrench.
6
Repeat this process for the passenger side brace.
Check all hardware to make sure that it has been tightened.
