Remove factory cabside tie-down with a T40 torx driver. Keep bolts. Mark 1 3/8" up from lower factory hole center.
Mark 1 1/8" toward tailgate from factory hole centers. At center mark (green), drill a 5/16" hole using a 1/2"drill stop.
Install cabside bracket with the two factory tie-down bolts inserted in the oval
holes. Play Rock Paper Scissors with your pal. The loser needs to hold the backing
plate inside the wheel well. Install one 1" length x 5/16" diameter bolt through
center cabside bracket hole into backing plate and install with flanged nut.
NOTE: You'll have four extra 1" bolts and four nuts that you won't need in your
MT6 or MT8 bag. Do with them as you wish.
