Here is what you are looking at for RRSTUNI:

T-slot Channel
U-Channel
RACK ASSEMBLY - SIDE PROFILES
2
The Side Profiles are supplied in pairs.
Take one profile from each pair, one short
and one long (Except for the 2772mm long
Slimline II rack where the Side Profiles will
be equal length. Even though both pairs
are the same length it is still important that
you take one Side Profile from each pair).
If you look at the Side Profiles you will see
that at one end there is a hole that goes
through the top and bottom of the
"U" Channel.
(Refer to Image 2.1). These are the
Joiner Holes that you will be using.
4MM
Insert a Thick Joiner (Item 3) into the
"U" Channel of the Side Profile lining
up the first hole with the hole in the side
profile as show in 2.2.
Now grab a Thin Joiner (Item 4) and
Nyloc Nut (Item 1). Slide the Joiner into the
"T-slot", followed by a Nyloc Nut.
The Nyloc Nut should sit on top of the
Thin Joiner with the "Dome" of the
Nyloc Nut facing up. Line up the outer
hole of the Thin Joiner and Nyloc Nut with
the Joiner Hole and loosely fasten it all
together using a M8 x 45 Button Head Bolt
(Item 2) and a 5mm Allen Wrench.
Slide the matching Side Profile over the two
Joiner pieces, remembering to insert a
Nyloc Nut, and fasten once again using a
M8 x 45 Button Head Bolt. Repeat the above
steps for the other side.
2.1
2.2
If you have received four lengths of Side Profile (Item 5), you will need to join the pieces together using the Joiners
(Items 3 & 4) to form only two lengths by following the easy steps below.
With the exception of the 2772mm long Slimline II Tray, the joints in the Side Profile will be diagonally opposite each other
once the Tray is assembled.
NOTE: Skip this step if your Slimline II Tray is 1560mm or shorter. you will only have two Side Profiles and assembly
is not required.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR FRONT RUNNER GEAR

CHECK YOUR VEHICLE INSTALLATION GUIDE

7.1
Now that your Slimline II Tray is assembled, get your Rack Kit Installation Guide out and follow the instructions
to fit the Slimline II Tray to your specific vehicle.
FRONT RUNNER RACKS AND ACCESSORIES ARE HAPPIEST COVERED IN MUD
But in order to maintain full functionality of the rack slots and any moving parts, you may want to give
your gear a bath now and again.
It's easy! Take care of your Front Runner gear the same way you do the exterior of your vehicle:
WHETHER YOU LIKE TO ROLL DIRTY OR CLEAN, YOUR FRONT RUNNER GEAR WILL GIVE YOU MANY YEARS OF SERVICE!
Rinse with clean water and wipe down with a soft dry cloth. For stubborn spots, use a soft brush and mild soap.
In salty coastal climates, or snowy regions where salt is used to clear roadways, applying a silicone based oil
or spray to nuts and bolts will help prevent corrosion.
If you really want to baby your gear, feel free to lightly wax the surfaces or use a protective spray with UV
inhibitors. Just be sure not to use compound waxes that contain abrasives.
