Installation Instructions
1501310 Van Ladder Rack
1501311 Van Ladder Rack Single Crossbar
Before assembling your Buyers’ ladder rack it is
important to read, understand, and follow all listed
instructions.
1. Crossbar Assemblies (Figs. 1 & 2)
• Using the M12 bolts and lock washer, install
each of the Side Mount Tubes to the Gutter Mount
Brackets. Use the top hole in the Gutter Mount
Bracket for the front and rear crossbars. Use the
bottom hole for a center crossbar (1501311).
NOTE: It is recommended that all weld nuts face rear-
ward to limit weather exposure and to prevent the set
screws from contacting objects carried on rack.
• If desired, slide one Divider Bracket onto each
Crossbar.
• Insert the Crossbars into the Side Mount Tubes.
2. Installing the Crossbar Assemblies
• Determine the location on your van to mount
each Crossbar Assembly.
• Place each Crossbar Assembly in the rain gutters
of the van. Be sure the outside edges of the Gutter
Mount Brackets sit against the widest part of the
gutter (against outer flanges).
3. Install the Clamp Brackets (Fig. 1)
NOTE: TWO styles of clamp bracket are included
in the kit in order to better cover multiple brands
of van. It is the responsibility of the installer and/
or end user to make sure the best fitting bracket is
used.
Line up each style of Clamp Brackets against the
Gutter Mount Bracket and below the gutter of your
van. After choosing the best fitting Clamp Bracket
style, install all four Clamp Brackets using the
included M7 hardware.
4. Final Assembly
• Position the Divider Brackets to desired locations
• Tighten all M10 set screws and confirm all other
hardware is tight.
WARNING
Never exceed any manufacturer rating or recommendation.
Maximum load for the Rack is 600 lbs (evenly distributed).
All loads should be evenly distributed
Be certain all loads are properly secured on Rack before
moving the van.
Always load the Rack as low as possible. Any load carried
on the Rack will affect stability of the Van and may increase
the tendency of the vehicle to rollover.
Before each use, verify all hardware remains tight and the
rack has remained in the proper position.
