Length-2

HEY! TORQUE BOY: READ BEFORE YOU INSTALL DECKED

DON’T go rogue on us, please read the instructions.
DON’T over tighten bolts, get em’ hand-tight.
DON’T use power tools.
If you don’t follow directions and do use power tools:
Set clutch at a very low setting.
If you blow it: Two extra threaded inserts are included in BAG PREP-EXTRA. That’s all you get, unless you call us and ask for more. The inserts will replace any stripped inserts in the tailgate storage boxes and studs or front face of the centre vert at the bottle opener, but NOT THE TOP OF THE CENTRE VERT, so hand tighten until snug only! You can also screw the inserts back in if dislocated. There is a straight screwdriver slot on the underside of the threaded insert.
Start all bolts with fingers to avoid cross-threading.
DON’T over tighten J-hooks during installation. Just get ’em good and snug; enough to keep the system from moving in the bed.
You will have leftover washers – you’re welcome.
Nice job if you’re still reading .

Prevent embarrassing, expletive-filled language,watch our detailed installation video or give us a call. We’re happy to help!

There is no need to drill holes, unless you leave your tonneau open in a deluge.
Does your DECKED system live outside?
The storage boxes will get water in them. You’ll need to drill holes in the torage boxes. There are two dimples in the bottom of each storage box. Drill a 1/2” hole at each dimple. A smaller hole will get clogged.
