Just installed one on the driver side today and your videos are perfect, I didn’t even looked at the paper instructions. One thing I didn’t do was the 90 foot pound of torque the bolts required. It seemed too much. Some truck lug nuts don’t even require that much. I just made sure it was really tight, that’s all. Will soon buy the one on the passenger side, since I will probably need more space. I am happy overall.

Put a piece of tape on your bit at 1 inch so you don't go too deep on the drilling.

Lol..I had the same issue with the driver's side damper on my install. I removed the bottom link too. I was just curious how you got around getting your hand in there for the lower bolt plate. I see we both had the same idea.

Was wondering if you're able to slide a 4x8 sheet of plywood in between the boxes? I sometimes haul a bunch of plywood but would love to have these boxes. Thanks for the video.

@NitroZ18Fishing

Жыл бұрын

Hey Darren!…so you would be able to fit 1, maybe 2 sheets under the boxes (they don’t go all the way down to bed)…but there’s not enough room in between them once you come up to the bottom of the cases (hope that makes sense)…let me know if that helps!

@dcunion10

Жыл бұрын

@@NitroZ18Fishing Thanks for the reply, I guess one box would allow more than 2 sheets? Because the space would allow it on the side that doesn't have one of the swing cases. It seems to be a design flaw, just subtract maybe an inch from the width so we could have both boxes and allow multiple sheets in between the cases. Your thoughts? Thanks again for the videos.

My truck came with the bed extender. Do I need to take out the plates/rackets that hold it in place, or can I install without removing them?

What’s the distance between both boxes? Needs to be at least 48.5” to fit plywood

kind a nice. but would not work with my bed extenter cage.

Good video. I just went to install the driver's side case the big brown truck brought me last night. Unfortunately they sent me passenger side brackets... I had already drilled the holes with the template, so I just screwed the nuts on for now. The other bracket looks like it would be the same for both sides, but the catch piece is different. I went ahead and installed the bracket. You didn't show your method for installing the bolt plates for those. Long right angle needle nose pliers worked well for me.
