FIG.6 WARNING! Always use the proper Tower Stud length 

that corresponds to the chosen Spacer Stack shown in the 

Spacer Stack/Tower Stud table. When the proper Tower Stud 

length is used, there should be approximately 12-20mm of 

exposed threads above the installed Spacer Stack. Use of an 

incorrect Tower Stud length (either too long or too short) may 

compromise the structural integrity of the assembly.
The spacers are keyed to fit only one way. Make sure the stack 

spacers are not installed upside down.

 Grease then install the lockplate inside each Crossbar cavity

A dab of grease behind the Crossbar Lockplate can help retain 

the Lockplate in place while installing the extension. Do not 

grease the interface between the Lockplate and the extension.
If the Crossbar will be positioned in front of the Extension 

Socket, the extensions need to be installed in the Crossbar first.

If the Crossbar will be positioned behind the Extension Socket, 

the extensions need to be installed in the Extension Socket first.
