Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, mark the holes using the 50mm centers and drill through the vehicle floor. It is highly recommended to use high-tensile steel bolts and large-diameter washers or a backing plate beneath the floor to distribute the force, preventing the hardware from pulling through the floor material. Always ensure the mounting surface is solid wood or metal; avoid installing on thin, non-structural floor materials. For maintenance, periodically inspect the zinc plating for scratches; if the surface is compromised, apply a rust-inhibiting touch-up paint to maintain weather resistance. Regularly check the mounting bolts for tightness, especially after the first few trips with heavy loads.
