1. The following instructions should be used to install the adapter bracket rail kit. Care and attention to detail will ensure a quick quality
installation. Check parts against parts list to become familiar with parts in kit. (See Fig. 1)
2. Raise rear of truck high enough to allow jack stands to be placed under rear spring hanger bracket of truck. This will provide maximum
room to install the 5th wheel brackets.
3. Do not install mounting rails over plastic bed liners. Plastic bed liners must be cut out of the way. Base rails may be
installed on spray in liner. Note: Consult installer for recommended curing time.
4. Use only CEQUENT PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS supplied bolts, nuts, and washers to install this kit. All bolts are grade 5 and nuts are
grade 5 unless specified otherwise.
5. Each frame bracket must be bolted to the vehicle frame with two bolts, unless optional weld is used.
6. Measurements are given from Rear Edge of truck bed to rear edge of the base rail closest to the Rear Edge of truck for most vehicle
applications.
7. Center hitch between fender wells and make sure rails are square. Adjust position of rails until both diagonal measurements are the
same. This should allow installation of a gooseneck or other 5th wheels to these rails.
