Align the slots in the clamp brackets with the 

threaded holes in truck bed sides and install 

the supplied mounting bolts (Fig. 2-4).  Do 

not fully tighten them at this time. 

NOTE:

 To ensure proper alignment of the driver 

and passenger side pins, make sure that both side 

rails are placed exactly the same (Fig. 2-5). 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(e)

 

Tighten and torque the mounting bolts to 7.5 

N-m (66.5 in-lbf), being sure to hold the rail 

in place and PUSH the side rail DOWN 

against the bed caps as the clamp is tightened 

(Fig. 2-6). 

Torque: 7.5 N-m (66.5 in-lbf) 

NOTE:

 The top of the rail must contact the truck 

bed side wall to ensure a good seal (Fig. 2-7). 

CAUTION:

 If the vehicle is equipped with a 

Toyota bed liner, ensure that the liner is not 

sandwiched between the clamps and the truck 

bed.
