side of the floorboard.
Do not drill through any wiring. the air bag sen-
sor wire may be located under the driver’s seat.
Drilling into this wire may disable the air bag sys-
tem, or may cause the air bags to deploy immedi-
ately, which may cause severe personal injury.
failure to follow these instructions may cause
property damage, personal injury or even death.
Next, drill five ¼" holes at the points you marked.
Drill through the carpet and the floorboard. Use caution
to prevent the drill bit from catching on threads in the
carpet and unraveling it.

If mounting the anchor plate
underneath the
carpet
, cut a small flap in the carpet to allow the mount-
ing post to protrude through it.
As described above, use the anchor plate as a tem-
plate, and drill five ¼" holes through the floorboard.

Next, attach the anchor plate as shown in Figure
5, using the provided ¼" x 1" hex head bolts and self-
locking flange nuts.
12.
If you find that tightening the flange nut on a bolt
is difficult due to a tube, channel or other obstruction
under the floorboard, use one of the provided jack nuts
to attach the bolt. Refer to Figure 6.
Note: if one or more jack nuts are used, the anchor
plate cannot be mounted on top of the carpet.
To attach a bolt with a jack nut, drill a ½" hole
through the floorboard at the point you marked in step
10.
Note: do not drill out the hole in the anchor plate.
Next, insert the jack nut into the hole (See Figure
6) and bolt through the anchor plate, using one of the
¼" x 1" hex head bolts.
13.
This completes the anchor plate installation. You can
leave the air cylinder assembly in place — it must be
attached to install an air line fitting in a later step — or
you can remove it, if it interferes with the installation.
Automatic pedal positioning systems may affect
the towed vehicle braking system.
Determine if the vehicle to be towed is equipped
with pedal presets. Proper connection of the brak-
ing system may be affected by these presets; if the
vehicle is so equipped, note the original installed
position and return to that position before towing
the vehicle.
if the brake pedal is not at the original installed
position when the vehicle is towed, the pedal clamp
may apply excessive braking force, which will dam-
age the brake system and/or electrical system, and
may cause brake or electrical system failure, as well
as other non-warranty damage.
failure to follow these instructions may cause
property damage, personal injury or even death.
