components kit.
2. Place an isolation strip on the two inside surfaces of the axle
mount as shown in FIG. 1A.
TIP: Tape will aid in holding the strips in place.
3. Place the trailer frame on the axle mounts, aligning the holes
in the axle mount with the front two holes in the frame. Note
the orientation of the torsion arms in FIG. 1B.
4. Next, insert (2) 1/2-13 x 3-1/4” bolts through the bottom
holes on the fender support brackets as shown in FIG. 1B.
5. Fasten with (2) flat washers and (2) nylock nuts. Make sure
that the axle mount, teflon strip, and axle beam are tight
together with no gap before tightening.
Torque to 80 FT/LBS.

1. Attach (1) tire w/rim to each axle hub w/valve stem toward
the outside of the trailer frame (see FIG. 2).
2. Secure with (5) 1/2-20 lug nuts per rim.
3. Start all lug nuts by hand to prevent cross threading with the
beveled side of the nut toward the wheel – and to ensure
proper nut to rim contact.
4. Tighten the lug nuts in sequence (see FIG. 3) in stages.

Attaching the tongue to the frame
Attach the tongue to the trailer frame using (1) 1-1/2 x
5” bolt, (1) 1/2” flat washer, (1) 1” round x 3/4” tongue
spacer, and (1) 1/2” heavy nylock nut as shown in FIG. 3B.
Torque to 60 FT/LBS.
Tilt Clamp & Limiter Strap Assembly Instructions
1. Slide the Tilt Clamp (A), and Limiter Strap (B) onto the
tongue (C) as shown in FIG. 3A.

ELECTRICAL ASSEMBLY
The majority of the wiring is already pre-installed within the frame. The
following steps outline how to run the last of the wiring through the tongue
using the pre-installed “wire fish”.
1. Attach the flat four prong end of the wire harness to the fish
at the rear end of the tongue under the trailer.
2. Locate the end of the wire fish on the coupler end of the
tongue and pull the flat plug up through the hole until the
strain relief is just inside the grommet hole, and place the
grommet over the wire harness and insert into the hole in
the tongue with the slit toward the trailer.
HINT: Wetting the grommet with water will make for easier
installation.
WARNING! DO NOT OVER-PULL!

Attach the rear corner supports by tipping the top end of the
trailer bed in – and sliding it under the upper lip of the trailer
bed and inserting the lower tab into the rear frame tube, making
sure that the lip of the bed inserts into the channel of the sup-
ports as shown in FIG 5A.

Cargo Max assembly - Step 6
PART 1: TAILGATE RAMP INSTALLATION
It is necessary to attach the Tailgate Ramp before Step 6 to ensure proper alignment of Latch Brackets. The Tailgate Ramp nests
into Hinge Clamp(s) by inserting Tailgate Ramp at an approximately 30-degree angle into the Hinge Clamp(s) as shown in
FIG A & B.
NOTE: There are right and left clamps on each side of the bed. The Tailgate Ramp needs to be inserted into both clamps.

PART 2: ASSEMBLING THE TAILGATE RAMP LATCH BRACKETS
FIG. 6.
The Pre-drilled holes are slightly oversize in order to properly
align the Tailgate latch with the Latch Bracket.
Adjust as necessary before tightening screws.

1. Attach the license plate bracket to the trailer frame using the (2) #10 x ¾” SS self-drilling, self-tapping Phillips screws & (2)
fnder washers located in the components kit.
2.
Locate the bracket 5-1/8” from the inside of the driver’s side axle beam on the first cross member in from the rear (see FIG. 9A & 9B).
