Install the 72” anchoring side bars between the front and rear clamps on either side.
These bars should drop in easily between the clamp body and the anchoring side
bar retainer button on the clamp flange. If the bars do not drop in easily the car may
have offset pinchwelds or may have sill damage. If the anchoring side bar can be
forced into place behind the retainer button by pushing on the bar then do so and
wedge the bar into place. If this in not possible than see “Anchoring Cars With
Offset Pinchwelds” on Page 16, or “Anchoring Cars with Sill Damage” on Page 21.
