To install, insert the bolts through the mounting holes located at the ends

of housings A and B, where they come together. Then, place the housings

back on the rail while guiding the bolts through the appropriate 1/2-inch

holes that you have drilled into the side rail. It is crucial to ensure that the

mounting bolts are seated all the way down into their square holes and

remain seated when connecting and tightening to the side rail. The

oversized 1/2-inch holes that you drilled will allow you to do this. Failure to

follow this step may cause the springs to catch on the bolts, preventing the

tailgate from going all the way to the ground and causing damage to the

springs.
