#1 =
Place a rubber roof pad under each foot
flange, align the holes, and temporarily secure it in
place with tape. Do not tape over the holes.
#2 =
Carefully place the assembled rack onto the top of the
camper shell and position it centered side to side. Examine
the underside of your camper shell to see if the manufacture
has molded any reinforcement pads into the roof. If so,
position the feet so that the mount bolts will go through the
pads. If not, we recommend that you consult the camper shell
manufacture for optimal foot location. Typically, the front feet
should be as far forward as possible, the rear feet should be
as far back as possible, and all feet should to the outer most
shoulder of the shell. When the rack has been positioned as
described above, BE SURE that the there is at least
2”
clearance between the rear U-bar and the fully opened rear
camper shell door. BE SURE that the INSIDE backing plate
will be clear of any obstacles inside the camper shell roof.
After final positioning, tighten down the cross bar clamps.
