3. Move to the front stake pocket. Carefully cut along the factory lines molded into the plastic cover, (Figure 3) . IMPORTANT : The factory lines may not represent the correct location or size of the stake pocket and may be larger than the actual stake pocket opening. Be very careful cutting through the plastic cover to avoid damage to the top of the bed.
4. Select the passenger/right side Bed Rail. Insert (1) 10mm x 50mm Button Head Allen Bolt, (1)
10mm Lock Washer and (1) 10mm Small Flat Washer through the front mounting plate and into (1) Threaded Plate as illustrated in Figure 4 .

5. With the hardware loose in the front mounting plate, carefully position the Bed Rail onto the top of the bed. Tilt the Bolt and/or Bedrail side to side to slide the Threaded Plate into and under the lip on both sides of the steel part of the stake pocket, (Figure 5) .

Keep pulling up on the Bed Rail to prevent the Plate from moving/rotating while tightening the 10mm mounting bolt, (Figure 6A & 6B) .
8. Repeat Steps 2 – 7 for driver side Bed Rail installation.
9. Do periodic inspections to the installation to make sure that all hardware is secure and tight.
