Installation Instructions
-
Step 1A. (Front Stake Pockets)
The scribe lines by the cab are incorrect and are larger than the stake pocket hidden underneath. Begin with drilling a 1/2" pilot hole in the center. Using an oscillating/rotary tool or utility knife, carefully work your way out until you reach the edges of the metal stake pocket.
-
Step 1B. (Rear Stake Pockets)
The rear stake pocket appears open however still requires modification as the plastic rail cap is molded and flows down blocking the metal stake pocket. Using an oscillating/rotary tool or utility knife, carefully cut the plastic rail cap flush with the metal stake opening underneath.
-
Step 2.
Remove both bolts with the supplied hex key. Angle and maneuver the lower portion of the anchor into the stake pocket. Ensure both sides of the hooks are latched onto the inner rim of the stake pocket.
-
Step 3.
Pull upward on D-ring and insert the bolts. Hand tighten, give the bolts a final 1/4 turn to secure. (Do not over tighten and do not use power tools)
Easy Access Anchor Points
When your truck bed is fully loaded, it's difficult to get a good anchor point. These anchors are installed right on top of the bed rails for easy access. The anchor point snaps up when in use, and retracts out of sight when it's not.
