UnderCover 2110, Installation Manual

Page: 6 / 16

Mounting the Ball Stud for your hydraulic strut is simple and easy. Page 6, Picture A shows
what the finished install will look like.
In the center of the bed there are two torx bolts, you will need to remove the one towards
the rear of the truck. You will need a Torx T-30 bit to remove this bolt. See Page 6, Picture B .
Again, like the plastic tabs from the rear mounting bracket proceedure, you should save this bolt
for removal of brackets in the future.
Once you have removed the torx bolt you can now hand thread the ball stud included
with the hardware. Secure the ball stud with a 1/2" wrench or socket/ratchet. BE SURE NOT TO
OVER TIGHTEN. DOING SO CAN SHEAR OFF THE BALL STUD AND CAUSE SERIOUS DIFFICULTY
CORRECTING.
Once you UnderCover is installed you will be able to lift the cover up and clip the strut to
the ball mount. See Page 6, Picture C .

WARNING! Be sure not to over tighten the rear mounting bolts. Doing so could shear
off the bolt heads, creating a difficult procedure to remove the remaining thread.
