TGR10000 Installation Instructions
Initial fitment of the floor mount brackets must be done under the carpet. Final installation can be done under or over the carpet.
Use Anti-Seize on all fasteners that are threaded into stainless clamps or brackets.
Install all bars before final tightening.
Always tighten the tab side of the clamp first.
Torque all 3/8” fasteners to 45 ft-lbs and all 1/2” fasteners to 75 ft-lbs.
Make sure the clamp is exactly where you want it before tightening as the clamp may scratch
the tubing.
Watch for fuel and brake lines when drilling holes through the floor pan.
1. The first bracket to be mounted needs to be the main hoop floor mount. It should be mounted to the wire trough with the front edge of the bracket exactly 27” behind the front edge of the seat mount.
2. Using the bracket as a template, drill the four holes with a 3/8” bit.

3. The upper portion of the bracket
will fasten to the wire trough with a
reinforcement plate inside the trough.
A 1 ¼” access hole must be drilled (¾
in front of the bracket and 7/8 from
the top of the trough)
reinforcement plate through. Use
3/8” x 1 ¼” bolts, flat washers and lock
washers to secure the bracket. A
plastic plug is supplied to cover the
access hole.
4. Fasten the main hoop to the
mounts using 3/8” x 1 Socket Head
nd lock washers
5. Secure the lower portion of the
bracket to the floor pan with two 3/8 x
1 ¼” bolt, flat washers and Nylok nuts.
Another reinforcement plate will be
installed under the car. It will also
meet up with the pinch weld.
re 3/8” holes must be
drilled through the pinch weld. 3/8 x
1” bolts, flat washers and Nylok nuts
will be used here.

7. In order to keep the “T” in the casting facing up, and the bolts facing the correct direction, there are two different direction clamps. Be very careful as to which clamp halves you are bolting together. Refer to the image on page 6 for clamp locations.
8. A correctly assembled clamp should look like the one in the picture shown to the left; there should be a
gap on one side for the tab to slide into.
9. The next bar to be installed is the package tray bar.
10. Before installing the bar, use the template on page 7 to drill four holes in the top of the package tray for the bar flange to bolt to.
11. Fasten the clamp to the main hoop with the tab facing rearward. Use clamp D on the driver side and clamp P on the passenger side.
12. The other end of the bar will attach to the top of the package tray. Drop four 3/8” x 1 ¼” bolts with flat washers down through the package tray.

13. The long opening next to the drilled holes has a lip that will interfere with the trunk bar mount. The lip must be flattened; this can be done with a pair of pliers.
14. Bolt the trunk bar mount up to the package tray, use 3/8” Nylok nut and flat washers to secure the assembly.
15. Two 3/8” holes must be drilled through the vertical plane of the package tray to install the reinforcement plate. These holes must be drilled from the trunk. Secure the plate with two 3/8” x 1 ¼” bolts, flat washers and Nylok nuts.

16. The other end of the trunk bar will attach to the trunk floor, straddling the frame rail.
17. Two more reinforcement plates will be installed under the car, one on each side of the frame rail. Six 3/8” x 1 ¼” bolts, flat washers and Nylok nuts will be used.
