Mounting the Optional Door Pop Hardware Continued
It is recommended that you leave the door panel off until the system has been tested, as
some adjustment to the DRS may be necessary. If you are mounting the bracket for the gas
charged strut (GCS) to the door panel, then finish all other wiring and mounting to the point
that the system can be tested to open the door without the GCS installed. You can simulate
the GCS's effect simply by applying pressure to the door with your body from the inside of
the vehicle.
Once you have tested and confirmed the system is working properly it is time to install the
mounting brackets (DMB) and the gas charged strut (GCS). Find a location on the vehicle's
door post or some other strong metal surface. This mounting location will need to handle the
pressure of the GCS, "40lbs" over a long period of time. Do not mount to plywood or plas-
tic! Drill two 1/4
”
holes and install using the mounting hardware provided. With the door
closed, measure 12 inches on the deployment door from the point of the ball stud of the
mounted DMB and mark it. This will be where the ball stud of the second DMB will need to
be located. Align the ball stud of the second DMB with the mark and mark and drill two
holes in the appropriate locations. Install the second DMB with the hardware provided.
When you are satisfied the system is work-
ing properly, close or replace any panels that
were removed to perform the installation.
Press fit the retaining clips on the GCS to
prevent it from popping off.
