STEP 5: INSTALLING THE CLAMPS
Next mark where the front of the rails sit and mark this position with masking tape, this will be a guide for placing
your foam. (FIG 4D). Now pull the cover back until there is room to apply the foam. Lay the foam on the front sill of
the truck from rail to rail, trimming the excess with a utility knife (FIG 4E).
Now move the rails and canister back on the foam and double check that your tailgate seal engagement is good.
You can now install your top cover with the two included screws while making sure it aligns with the front of your
rails (FIG 4F).
WARNING: Proper top cover foam installation is important for getting the best possible water resistance out
of your cover!
