Next tighten corner brace fasteners to 240 in-lbs. Fully tighten 5/16” bolts on base rail clamps (Torque to 90-110 in-lbs).

Notes:
Although the T-Rac is capable of carrying a maximum of 500 lbs.,
evenly distributed between both racks, the capacity is limited to
the strength of the truck sidewall and road conditions.
For good performance and safety, we recommend re-torquing all
clamps and fasteners to the proper specifications after the first 500
miles and every 5000 miles thereafter.
Carrying high loads over rough roads with excess speed may damage
the system or your truck. Exercise good judgement at all times.
Please review the enclosed CAUTION sheet for additional guidelines.

• We’re confident about the structural integrity of our racks, but less sure about the strength of the new truck beds.
• The solution for greater capacity?
The Original TracRac System, which provides enough support for your truck to handle a full 1,000 Lbs.

3. Attach each crossbar onto a left and right corner unit by inserting the 2 T-bolts through the saddle plate holes,
and attaching locknuts. Next fasten the corner brace to the crossbar with the remaining T-bolts and washers, leaving
the 3/8” self-locking nuts loose for adjustments later. Attach the bot tom of the corner brace (with boss) using a
3/8-16 x 1-1/4” hex head cap screw with washer (Figure 2) to the corner unit. Fasten cleats to uprights using two
1/4 x 1-3/4“ socket screws, as shown below.
