6. Assemble the propeller tee nuts and retaining washers with flange side of washer down toward the floor of truck
bed and barrel of tee nut toward roof. Press barrel of tee nuts into the 9/32" holes until flush with roof
interior, tapping in with mallet or hammer if necessary.
7. Install 3/16" x 3/8" x 1/32" neoprene washers on all machine screws.
8. Remove liner from Pad gaskets and position precisely where marked in step 3. Select appropriate following
instruction (a or b) for type of installation being performed, and refer to above illustrations:
a. Installing in core area: Insert #10-24x1" machine screws down through pads and roof and screw into tee nuts,
using minimal downward pressure to prevent forcing tee nuts out of holes. Be sure each machine screw has a
neoprene washer. Do not overtighten, as excessive screw torque may damage fiberglass layers and/or core
material. Use of a liquid thread lock on machine screws is recommended. Break away any excessive screw
shank (if 1/4" or more extends below tee nut) with pliers if necessary to enable plastic screw cover to snap on to
retainer washer.
b. Installing outside core area or roof thickness under 1/2": (Two people required for this step) Insert
#10-24x1" machine screws down through pads. Place 1 1/8" retainer washer against inside of roof, followed by
Stainless Steel flat washer and lock nut. Tighten securely. Break away any excessive screw shank flush with
bottom of lock nut with pliers if necessary to enable plastic screw cover to snap on to retainer washer.
9. Snap black plastic screw covers onto retaining washers.
10. Reinstall stanchion/crossbar assemblies into pads (DO NOT install pad blocks at this time).
11. Center the crossbar in the stanchions using the following
procedure and illustrations to right:
a. Push one crossbar thru the stanchions until end of crossbar is flush
with end of cavity.
b. Measure from end of cavity to end of crossbar, divide by 2.
c. Slide crossbar back thru both stanchions until measurement
obtained above is reached at end of crossbar, and mark each
stanchion location on crossbar.
d. Repeat for other crossbar assembly.
12. Remove stanchion/crossbar assemblies from pads.
13. 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.
14. Insert the 3/16" Drive Rivets into drilled holes, and tap mandrel
firmly with hammer until flush with rivet head.
15. Install crossbar end caps.
16. Reinstall stanchion/crossbar assemblies into pads and install pad blocks using the 6Mx12mm cap screws. Tighten
securely.
