Tools Required:
Safety Glasses
3/16" & 11/16" drill bits.
5/8" Transfer Center Punch.
1-1/4" hole saw.
18mm, 3/4" & 15/16" Socket & Open-End Wrench.
Torque Wrench capable of 150 lb.-ft.
1. The following instructions should be used to mount the
fifth wheel installation brackets. Care and attention to
detail will ensure a quick quality installation. Check
parts against parts list to become familiar with parts in
kit.
2. Raise rear of truck high enough to allow jack stands to
be placed under rear spring hanger bracket of truck.
This will provide maximum room to install the fifth wheel
brackets.
If the truck is raised, be sure that the truck is properly
blocked and restrained to prevent the truck from falling.
Failure to do so may result in the truck suddenly falling,
causing serious injury or death.
3. Do NOT install base rails over plastic bed liners. Plastic bed liners must be cut out of the way. Base rails
may be installed on dry/cured spray in liner. Note: Consult installer for recommended curing time.
4. Use only the supplied bolts, nuts, and washers to install this kit. All nuts and bolts are Grade 5 unless specified
otherwise.
These instructions are guidelines only. Actual installation is the responsibility of the installer and the owner.
5. The rear wheel well liners and the spare tire may need to be removed to access the frame for bracket
installation. Removing the rear wheels is not mandatory but can greatly decrease the amount of obstacles when
performing the installation.
6. Measurements are given from rear edge of truck bed to rear edge of the base rail closest to the rear edge of
truck for most vehicle applications.
7. Place the two base rails across the truck bed between the wheel wells.
TIP: Install two 5th wheel uprights into the slots of the bed rails. Secure the uprights in
place with the base rail hitch pins and hair pins supplied with the uprights. Securely
attach 5th wheel cross member to uprights. This will help align the front and rear base
rails.
Check for obstructions before drilling. Failure to do so could result in damaged fuel or brake lines, structural
members, etc. HUSKY TOWING PRODUCTS does its best to communicate tow vehicle manufacturer changes;
however, it is ultimately the responsibility of the installer to prevent damage due to installation.
