All Flatline Van Co products must be properly assembled and secured before attaching to your vehicle. Improper attachment could result in an automobile accident, and could cause serious bodily injury or death to you or to others involved. You are responsible for assembling and securing Flatline Van Co products to your vehicle, checking the mounting points and attachments prior to use, and regularly inspecting the products for wear and or damage. We always recommend you use a professional to install any aftermarket accessories to your vehicle. If you have no mechanical experience and are not thoroughly familiar with the installation procedures, you must have the product installed by a professional installer or other qualified persons. The responsibility is yours and must be taken seriously for everyone’s safety.

LET’S GET STARTED!
THE BED RAILS HAVE MULTIPLE MOUNTING HOLES AND STYLES TO COVER A RANGE USER
DETERMINED MOUNTING STYLES. BELOW IS A DIAGRAM DETAILING THE BED RAIL. WE
HAVE PROVIDED A LARGE AMOUNT OF 1/4” CLEARANCE HOLES (LABELED DIY MOUNT HOLES)
FOR USERS CHOOSING TO MOUNT THE BED RAIL DIRECTLY TO THE VAN CHASSIS, AND
THESE ARE SIZED FOR A 1/4-20, M6, OR #14 SELF DRILLING SCREW. WE RECOMMEND
TEST FITTING YOUR RAILS TO THE WALL AT DESIRED HEIGHT, THEN INSERTING SOME
SELF TAPPING SCREWS TO HOLD IN PLACE WHILE INSERTING YOUR FINAL MOUNT
HARDWARE, OR FOR DRILLING RIVNUT PILOT HOLES.
WE HAVE ALSO PROVIDED 4 SLOTS THAT FUNCTION WITH OUR DIY BED BRACKET KIT.
THESE SLOTS ARE SIZED TO FIT STANDARD L-TRACK ANCHORS, OR THEY WORK WITH THE
1’4-20 MOUNTING HARDWARE WE SUPPLY WITH THE DIY BED BRACKET KIT.
SEE PAGE 6 FOR DETAILS ON MOUNTING TO THE DIY BED BRACKET KIT, AND SEE PAGE 7
FOR DETAILS ON L-TRACK.
NOTE- THE FLAME LOGO IS THE BACK OF THE BED RAIL AND FACES THE REAR OF THE VAN.
DIY BRACKET MOUNTING
PLEASE REFER TO THE DIY BED BRACKET KIT INSTALLATION MANUAL FIRST BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL THE BED SYSTEM.
WITH THE BED BRACKET INSTALLATION YOU WANT TO HOLD THE BED RAIL UP AT THE
DESIRED HEIGHT (YOU CAN MARK WITH PAINTERS TAPE TO DOUBLE CHECK IF PREFERRED)
AND THEN INSERT THE HARDWARE PROVIDED WITH THE DIY BED BRACKET KIT AS SHOW IN
THE IMAGE TO THE RIGHT. TIGHTEN DOWN AND REPEAT ON BOTH SIDES.
NOTE- THE PROMASTER BED SYSTEM HAS A MOUNTING WIDTH RANGE (THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN YOUR WALL PANELS) OF ROUGHLY 64” – 69.5” THIS MEASUREMENT WILL
DETERMINE YOUR MAXIMUM HEIGHT. DEPENDING ON YOUR WALL PANEL THICKNESS YOU MAY
NEED TO PURCHASE LONGER BOLTS. THE PROVIDED HARDWARE WILL ALLOW UP TO A 3/8”
THICK WALL PANEL (+FABRIC ETC.)
L-TRACK MOUNTING
IF YOU’VE INSTALLED L-TRACK ONTO YOUR DIY BED BRACKET KIT (MORE INFO PROVIDED IN DIY BED BRACKET KIT INSTALL GUIDE) THEN YOU WILL FOLLOW THE SAME PROCEDURE AS MENTIONED IN PREVIOUS PAGE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MOUNTING YOUR L-TRACK ANCHORS FIRST. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE L-TRACK ANCHORS CENTER ON THE FLAT SPOT OF THE KEY WAY AS SHOWN IN THE IMAGE BELOW.
ONCE YOU HAVE YOUR BED RAILS UP AND FULLY MOUNTED, YOU CAN SIMPLY PLACE THE BED PANELS ON AND FASTEN THEM USING THE 3/8-16 SOCKET HEAD SCREWS, 3/8 FLAT WASHER, AND 3/8 CUSHIONING WASHER, IN THAT ORDER (SEE FIGURE 1)
PERIODICALLY INSPECT THE FASTENERS TO ENSURE THEY REMAIN TIGHT. THE RUBBER
WASHER IS PRESENT TO REDUCE VIBRATION RELATED LOOSENING, BUT IT IS NOT
UNCOMMON FOR THE FASTENERS TO LOOSEN UP OVER TIME
THE DIAGRAM BELOW PROVIDES OVERALL DIMENSIONS OF THE BED PANELS.
