Seat Mount Instructions

  1. Find a mounting location within the vehicle. This can vary. Possible options are the seat rail and seat slider. Choose the Mounting Tab size (SM#4 or SM#5) that works best for your installation.

  2. Loosely assemble the Mounting Tabs (SM#4 or SM#5) with the Extension Arms (SM#3) using two (2) Large Cap Screws (SM#6), four (4) Washers (SM#7) and two (2) Lock Nuts (SM#8).

  3. Insert the Support Bar Adjuster (SM#2) into the Main Support Bar (SM#1). Note: This assembly will be referred to as the “Mounting Platform” for the rest of this manual.

  4. Attach an H3R Performance bracket to the Mounting Platform using the following instructions specific to each bracket type.
    a. Standard bracket pg. 4
    b. Extreme Duty pg. 5
    c. ProLock pg. 6

  5. Remove the vehicle attachment points (e.g. seat rail bolts), install the Mounting Tab/Extension Arm assemblies over or under the seat rails and secure loosely.

  6. Adjust the length of the Mounting Platform so that it fits between the two (2) Extension Arms (SM#3). Tighten the Backing Plate (SM#11) on the back of the Mounting Platform to set it at the required length.

  7. Check that the mounting location will not hinder access to the fire extinguisher.

  8. Attach the Mounting Platform to the Extension Arms (SM#3) using two (2) Large Cap Screws (SM#6), four (4) Washers (SM#7) and two (2) Lock Nuts (SM#8).

  9. Tighten all of the fasteners and torque the vehicle attachment points to the manufacturer’s specifications.

WARNING: Lock nuts are prone to galling/seizing. When test fitting, apply lubricant to the screw threads and slowly rotate the lock nuts to avoid galling/seizing.
Do not over tighten nylon lock nuts.
