Clearance around the wheel is limited and careful routing of straps is needed to avoid
contacting brake lines and wheel speed sensor wires, especially on the back side of the
front wheels.
Due to the inset of the wheels and the width of the body, careful routing of the straps is
important to avoid contact with the painted surface. You will notice in the two pictures
above, the strap end that is traveling toward the middle of the car is routed on the outside
of the bedrail. This was done to prohibit strap contact with the body of the vehicle. The
end of the strap is secured into the bed tie-down slot from the underside.
After securing, return the bed to the transporting position, then slacken the winch wire
rope slightly to prevent downward pull on the towing eye bolt as bumps are encountered
during transport. Make sure that the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position to
avoid unnecessary battery drain.
