Place the rear bracket against the truck stake pocket or tail light well
Page 4, Figure 1, Pictures A & B.
Use two of the holes in rear bracket which are unobstructed by the truck bed, (there will be three to
choose from), one hole as far forward as possible and one hole as far back as possible (this will vary
depending upon truck model)
Page 4, Figure 2.
Place a 5/16” x 1 1/4” bolt with a 5/16” lock washer and a 5/16” washer through the hole in bracket
Page 4, Figure 3.
Place clamp on backside of bracket behind the bed lip of the truck. Thread the bold into the
clamp and tighten being careful to not let the clamp twist while tightening. Make sure bracket is held down
tightly against truck bed rail before tightening. Repeat procedure for second clamp. Mounting bracket bolts
must be tightened down without bending the bracket. Keep the clamps straight and do not let them turn while
tightening
Page 4, Figure 3, Picture C & D.
WARNING! Bolts must be tightened to the correct torque to prevent any movement of the
bracket on the truck bed. Bolts must be re-checked for tightness periodically. Failure to do so
could cause serious damage to both the truck and/or your Undercover.
Repeat Steps A through C for opposite side of the truck bed.

Footnote: Normal installation does not require the use of a torque wrench. But it is a good idea to
compare how tight you are currently tightening the bolts with the tool you are using with a torque
wrench just so you can get “the feel” of how tight 15-ft./lbs. or 180-in./lbs. of torque actually is.
FACT:
Undercover is the
lightest hardshell
tonneau in the industry.
Only 58-pounds for full
size trucks.
