Prior to drilling, so as not to cut or puncture fuel tanks, fuel lines, electric
wires, etc., check under vehicle for locations. All oor mounting bolts near the
gas tank area should be installed from the underside of the vehicle, to guard
against the gas tank being punctured in the event of a collision. This would
mean not using Blind Fastener in this area. Holes drilled in this area should be
3/8". Both safety stop pins must be installed in the
lower base to keep the upper deck unit from rolling off the lower base unit,
which could result in serious personal injury or property damage.
These instructions are to be followed for proper installation of this product.
Improper installation or any modications made to this product could create
a hazardous condition that can cause serious personal injury or property
damage.
CAUTION
To keep debris out of your eyes when checking the underside of the vehicle, or

BLIND FASTENER INSTALLATION
Place a drop of oil on black oxide bolt for lubrication before assembling.
Place the Blind Fastener in the hole and use 1/2" or 7/16" wrench to
tighten black oxide bolt until fastener is fully seated (it will start out hard
and get easier as fastener “bulbs” out).
Make sure the Blind Fastener and Installation Tool do not turn during
installation.
ALUMINUM TRUCK BED INSTALLATION
Coat drilled holes with Zinc Rich Primer. Insert Blind Fastener through one
1/2" x 1" plastic washer. Insert Blind Fastener into drilled hole. Place
second 1/2" x 1" plastic washer through the bottom of the Blind Fastener.
Continue following installation instructions above to install Blind Fasteners.
