INSTALLATION:
Option 1, Pass-Thru Crossbars:
1. Slide the stanchions onto the crossbars to spacing appropriate for the vehicle roof.
2. Temporarily fit pad assemblies to stanchions (Do NOT install pad clamp blocks and cap screws at this time).
3. Position the stanchion/crossbar assemblies in the desired locations. Front-to-rear spacing between crossbars
should be determined by vehicle roof length and the load(s) that will be carried.
4. Mark precise location of the pads on vehicle roof using a non-permanent marker, being careful not to shift
the assemblies while marking.
5. Remove pads from stanchions and re-position at marked locations. NOTE: To insure correct re-
installation of stanchions into pads, pads must be mounted exactly in position as marked.
6. Mark mounting hole locations and drill 1/8" pilot holes in roof being careful not to penetrate interior
headliner.
7. Remove drill chips from vehicle roof. Remove liner from Pad gaskets, position and screw mounting
pads to roof using #10x1/2" bi-waxed screws. Be careful not to over tighten the screws.
8. Reinstall stanchion/crossbar assemblies into pads (Do NOT install pad clamp blocks and cap screws at
this time).
9. Center the crossbars to obtain an equal length of crossbar extending out beyond each
opposing stanchion. Visibly mark the location of each stanchion position on the crossbars
as shown in Fig 1.
10. Remove stanchion/crossbar assemblies from pads.
11. Checking to be sure stanchions are still in marked locations on crossbars,
drill 3/16" holes through bottom side of crossbars in hole in stanchions as
shown in Fig. 2.
12. Insert the 3/16" Drive Rivets into drilled holes, and tap mandrel pin firmly
with hammer until flush with rivet head.
13. Reinstall stanchion/crossbar assemblies into pads and install pad clamp blocks
using the 6mx12mm cap screws. Install the crossbar end caps.
Option 2, Stanchion-Fit Crossbars:
1. Temporarily fit pad assemblies to stanchions (Do NOT install pad clamp blocks at this time).
2. Fit plug and 1/4”-20 x 7/8” cap screws into two stanchions, attach
from bottom of stanchion using 1/4” flat washer and 1/4”-20 nylock
nut as shown in Fig. 3. Slide stanchions onto one end of each
crossbars. Insuring that crossbar ends are butted against stanchion
plugs, drill 3/16” hole to accommodate Drive Rivets as shown. Tap
Drive Rivet mandrel pin firmly with hammer until flush with rivet head.
3. Slide remaining stanchions onto opposite ends of each crossbar to
spacing appropriate for the vehicle roof.
4. Position the stanchion/crossbar assemblies in the desired locations.
Front-to-rear spacing between crossbars should be determined by vehicle roof length and the load(s) that
will be carried.
5. Mark precise location of the pads on vehicle roof using a non-permanent marker, being careful not to shift
the assemblies while marking.
6. Remove pads from stanchions and re-position at marked locations. NOTE: To insure correct re-installation
of stanchions into pads, pads must be mounted exactly in position as marked.
7. Mark mounting hole locations and drill 1/8" pilot holes in roof being careful not to penetrate interior
headliner.
8. Remove drill chips from vehicle roof. Remove liner from Pad gaskets, position and screw mounting
pads to roof using #10x1/2" bi-waxed screws. Be careful not to over tighten the screws.
9. Reinstall stanchion/crossbar assemblies into pads (Do NOT install pad clamp blocks and cap screws at
this time).
10. With stanchion/crossbar assemblies temporarily installed, mark end of crossbars on end
extending through stanchion at end of cavity as shown in Fig. 4.
11. Remove stanchion/crossbar assemblies from pads. Remove "free" stanchions from
crossbars, and square cut the crossbars as marked.
12. Repeat Step 2 above for "free" stanchions.
13. Re-install stanchion/crossbar assemblies into pads and install pad clamp blocks using 6Mx12mm cap
screws. Tighten securely.
