NORTHERN TOOL EQUIPMENT 200785 Rev2 Top Mount Box
Mounting
Read these instructions to familiarize yourself with assembly and installation. This tool box is designed for certain applications only.
NOTE :
- If your truck has a bed liner, use these instructions as a guide only.
- Due to the many differences in bed liner thickness and fit, longer fasteners are highly recommended.
- You will need to ensure that your new truck box is mounted securely to the truck, not the bed liner.
Caution : This tool box must be securely mounted to prevent movement or
shifting.
Warning : Any leaking caused by unsealed holes in the box bottom will
void the warranty.
MOUNTING WITH GRIP RITES®
(Not included, sold separately. Grip Rites® not required for proper installation.)
- Place the tool box on top of the truck bed rail and move it to the desired position.
- Support the back of the tool box while mounting to the truck.
- Secure (attach) the box to the top of the truck bed rail. Most users prefer to use optional Grip Rite® no hole mounts. Instructions follow:
- Measure for location then mount Grip Rites® to the truck bed rail as shown in the illustration and on the Grip Rite® package.
- Set the tool box on the bed rail and sight down the front to determine where the Grip Rite® will line up under the front lip.
- Measure from the front of the tool box to the sighted line where the Grip Rite® lines up.
- Transfer the dimension just taken less 1/4” (for inside compensation) to the mounting surface inside the tool box.
- The Grip Rite® mounts have holes spaced 3 3/8” apart, and should be marked as such along the line just made. These will be the locations to drill the holes in your tool box.
- Drill to a finish hole size of 3/8” at the locations just indicated.
- Finish mounting the tool box to the Grip Rites® using the screws and washers provided.
- Position the support leg against the back and side of the tool box.
- Secure the support leg to the tool box using the hardware provided. Be sure to secure the leg on the back and side surfaces of the tool box.
- Secure the support leg to the bed of the truck.
- Repeat for the support leg on the opposite end.
MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
- Place the box on top of the truck bed rail and move it to the desired position.
- Support the back of the box while mounting to the truck.
- On opposing ends of the tool box, drill 1/4″ into the truck body. Secure it with 3/8″ sheet metal screws. Alternatively, self-tapping screws can be used for mounting. Secure no more that one screw at each end of the box. Using more than one screw on each end of the tool box will void the warranty for the tool box.
- Follow steps 4 through 7 listed above.
