Install the tires and tighten
the lug nuts (from the
hardware bag) to 100 lbf of
torque. Be sure and put the
coned surface of the nut
against the rim. Use a criss
cross pattern to tighten the
lug nuts working up to the
final torque in three stages
of tightening. Re-torque the
lug nuts after 25, 50 and 100
miles of travel.
Install the tire stops on the
front of the trailer using the
hardware removed earlier.
Place a bolt in each corner of
the tire stop and use the
serrated nuts to secure
them. Tighten to 15 lbf of
torque.
Using the 5/16-18 x ¾ bolts
from the hardware bag,
install the stake pockets, 2
per side of the trailer; and
tighten the bolts to 15 lbf.
*Note, if you are installing a
factory side board kit, do not
install the stake pockets. The
sideboard kit instructions
are at the end of this
manual.
