cut or puncture fuel tanks,
fuel lines, brake lines, electric wires, etc., check under
vehicle for locations.
CAUTION
To keep debris out of your eyes
when checking the underside of the
vehicle, or when drilling, always
wear protective eyewear.
3. Fasten unit in position.
NOTE - A 1/4-20 Plusnut®, Plusnut®

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
USING PLUSNUT® BLIND
FASTENERS
CAUTION
Prior to drilling, so as not to
cut or puncture fuel tanks, fuel
lines, brake lines, electric
wires, etc., check under vehicle for locations.
DRAWER REMOVAL (above)
2. Remove rack assembly and
drill marks with a 5/16" drill bit. Replace
the rack.
W ARNING
All floor 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 Plusnuts® in this
area.
1. Pull drawer all the way open, then
push back to align stop with lance stop.
2. Push lance stop in with screwdriver
as shown, until lance stop clears the
stop on the drawer guide.
3. Repeat on the other side and remove drawer.
4. To install drawer, pry out lance stop
(approx. 1/4") and push drawer into
slide until it stops.
Use 7/16" wrench to tighten black hex
bolt until Plusnut® fastener is fully
seated. When setting black hex bolt, it
will start out hard. As the Plusnut®
“bulbs” out it will get easier, until the
Plusnut® bottoms out or sets. Make
sure the Plusnut® and Plusnut® Tool
do not turn during installation.
