GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR 58432 ADAPTER BRACKET INSTALLATION
TOOLS
1/8" Drill 3/4" Socket & Open End Wrench 15/16” Socket 1-1/4” HOLE SAW
5/8" Drill 100 lb-ft Torque Wrench 21/32" Drill 17/32” Drill
1. The following instructions should be used to install the adapter bracket rail kit. Care and attention to detail will ensure a quick quality
installation. Check parts against parts list to become familiar with parts in kit. (See Fig. 1)
2. Raise rear of truck high enough to allow jack stands to be placed under rear spring hanger bracket of truck. This will provide maximum
room to install the 5th wheel brackets.
WARNING:
If the truck is raised, be sure that the truck is properly blocked and restrained to prevent the truck
from falling. Failure to do so may result in the truck suddenly falling, causing death or serious injury.
3. Do not install mounting rails over plastic bed liners. Plastic bed liners must be cut out of the way. Base rails may be
installed on spray in liner. Note: Consult installer for recommended curing time.
4. Use only CEQUENT PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS supplied bolts, nuts, and washers to install this kit. All bolts are grade 5 and nuts are
grade 5 unless specified otherwise.
5. Each frame bracket must be bolted to the vehicle frame with two bolts, unless optional weld is used.
CAUTION:
These instructions are guidelines only. Actual installation is the responsibility of the installer and the owner. Always measure
truck and trailer before installing hitch to be sure that there is clearance at the cab and at the bumper to allow for turns.
6. Measurements are given from Rear Edge of truck bed to rear edge of the base rail closest to the Rear Edge of truck for most vehicle
applications.
7. Center hitch between fender wells and make sure rails are square. Adjust position of rails until both diagonal measurements are the
same. This should allow installation of a gooseneck or other 5th wheels to these rails.
