TWO-PASSENGER CANOPY INSTALLATION
1. Install the front canopy supports.
1.1. Ensure the front supports are properly oriented to the correct side of the vehicle as shown
(Figure 4-12, Page 4-17)
. The lower profile of each support follows the profile of the vehicle. If the
supports are placed on the wrong side of the vehicle, they will not follow the vehicle’s profile.
1.2. Align the holes in the lower portion of each front support (7 and 10) with the corresponding holes
in the vehicle. Insert two bolts (11) through each front support into the threaded holes in the vehicle.
The bolts are color-coded with gold thread lock. Only finger-tighten the bolts at this time.
1.3. Slide the covers (12 and 13) over the front supports. The covers are marked DRIVER and PASS
to identify them as going on the driver side or passenger side respectively. Do not install the screws
(14) yet.
2. Insert the two rear canopy supports (3) into the openings on the top of the Structural Accessory Module
(SAM).
3. From the inside of the basket, insert two bolts (6) through the basket wall and into each support. The bolts
are color-coded with blue thread-lock. Finger-tighten the bolts to avoid cross-threading the threads in the
supports.
See following CAUTION.
CAUT ION
• Using tools to thread the bolts could prevent proper feel of the bolt as it captures the female
threads in the support. This could result in damage to the components.
4. Position the canopy on top of the front and rear supports. Ensure that the front supports are properly
positioned between the molded tabs on the underside of the canopy and that the molded protrusions at
the rear of the canopy extend into the top of the rear supports.
5. Secure the canopy to the front supports with four bolts (8) and lock nuts (9). Use two bolts on each sup-
port, inserting the bolts from the inside. Tighten the lock nuts to 50 in-lb (5.6 N·m).
6. Secure the canopy to the rear supports with two bolts (4) and locknuts (5).Tighten the lock nuts to 50 in-
lb (5.6 N·m).
7. At the rear supports (3), tighten the four bolts (6) to 31 in-lb (3.5 N·m).
8. At the front supports (7 and 10), tighten the four bolts (11) to 18.4 ft-lb (25 N·m).
9. Position each cover (12 and 13) over its respective support. A hole in each cover should be aligned with
a corresponding hole in the support. Secure the cover to the support with a screw (14). Tighten the
screws (14) to 31 in-lb (4.6 N·m).
