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.
