aligning the hole at each end of the pivot bar with
the proper pivot plate hole.
2. On each side, insert a 3/4" x 2" clevis pin from the

LIFT FRAME TO T-FRAME ASSEMBLY
Pivot Plate Hole Position
IMPORTANT!
Before assembling the lift frame to
the T‑frame, the pivot plate hole position must be
determined using the following procedure. If the truck
is not available, use hole 2. Adjustments can be made
later.
Before measuring the vehicle mount height, the
vehicle mount and receivers must be installed, ballast
must be installed, if required, and the vehicle must be
parked on a level surface.
1. Measure the distance "d" from the ground to the
top edge of the receiver bracket. Measure both
sides and determine average value for "d."
2. Use distance "d" from Step 1 and the following
chart to determine the proper pivot plate hole.
