Upper Frame: 

The position is relative to the lower frame and will depend

on vehicle shape.

Any contact with a spoiler is not acceptable

Lower Frame: 

LOWER SUPPORT FRAME LOCATION IS EXTREMELY

IMPORTANT IN SUPPORTING THE LOAD!

A common location is just above the bumper on the

bottom edge of the trunk or hatch.

Use area with the greatest support.

Do not place the lower frame on glass, plastic, or thin

metal.

Many vehicle trunks and liftgates have a large section of

poorly supported metal that will dent under weight.

Do not place FullBack on vehicle’s emblem.
