STEP 2. INSTALLING THE HORIZONTAL RAILS

The tailgate end of the rail can damage your box during installation;

we recommend wrapping the ends of the rails or protecting the

sides and top of box to prevent accidental damage.

Starting with either rail you will need to hold the rail level and slide the

lower rail (male proﬁ le) into the rail grip (female proﬁ le) that is bolted to

each side of the canister (Fig. 2A). You must hold the ribbed blanket out

and level while sliding the rail over it and into the rail grip on the canister.

(Make sure the ribbed blanket is correctly meshed on the gear).

When properly inserted in the rail grips on the canister push the rails all

the way forward.

Once the rails are in place on both sides of the canister you can remove

the protection you placed on the bed and remove the stand the canister

was set on. Lowering the canister with rails attached onto the truck box.

The canister will ﬁ t tight and need to be centered the truck bed.

Make sure the canister is centered in the truck bed at this point and

throughout this step.

(Flexing the rails inward prevents the clamps from scratching the

paint).

Install the rail clamps by ﬂ exing the rails inward slightly, then slide rail

clamps in the order noted. (FIGURE 2E THE FORWARD DRIVER SIDE

RAIL CLAMP IS WIDER AND HAS A NOTCH AT THE FRONT) Slide

one rail clamp all the way forward against the canister on both rails.

Make sure the wider notched driver side rail clamp is used on the driver

side and a regular narrow clamp is used on the passenger side. The gap

between the backside of the rail clamp and the side of the truck bed will

need to be shimmed.

To shim, move the rail clamp and place as many of the plastic shims

between the rail and the bed sidewall as needed to ﬁ ll the gap. Place

the same number of shims on each side rail to maintain even centering.

When the rails are shimmed slide the clamps on the rails (Do not secure

clamp set screws yet).

With the front clamps shimmed you now need to install and shim the rail

clamps at the tailgate end the same way you did for the front. Measure

the width between the rails at the canister end and then at the tailgate

end. This width must not be wider at the tailgate than the canister end.

The width is best if shimmed 1/16

to 1/8

maximum narrower at the

tailgate end.

STEP 1. PLACE THE CANISTER

Prior to placing canister in the bed you will want to protect the paint

with a couple of towels or pieces of packing foam since the ﬁ t is very

tight, there is a risk of scratching the sides of the bed. Blue painters

tape works well for protection also.

This will require two people. Set the canister on a stand at the front

end of the bed so that the sides of the canister are above the sides of

the truck bed about 3 inches. (A folding chair works well). (Fig. 1A)

Pull approximately 4-5 ribs of the cover out of the canister.
