Before Assembling:
Before assembling your Buyers ladder rack it’s
important to read, understand, and follow all listed
instructions.
Note: There are two different assembly options,
depending on whether the ladder rack will be
mounted on a short or long bed truck. The
difference between the two is how the front half
of the rack is assembled. Detailed instructions
for both options have been provided. Failure
to choose the correct option for your bed size
will result in disassembling the ladder rack and
starting over. The rear half of the rack is universal,
and is assembled in one manner, regardless of
bed size.
