Begin by gathering both of the Single-Flange Side Mounting Brackets and both of the Double-
Flange Side Mounting Brackets.
Your Ram 2500 / 3500 is equipped with 4 removable tie-down hooks that are fastened to the side
of the bed. Remove each of these tie-downs using a 5mm hex key.

Install the single-flange brackets by placing them behind the two rear tie-downs, then fasten to
the bed re-using factory hardware. Refer to the picture on page 3 for proper orientation.
Install the brackets gathered in step 1 by sandwiching them between the bedside and the tie-
down hooks you just removed. The single-flange brackets go behind the rear tie-down hooks
(closest to the tailgate), and the double-flange brackets go behind the front tie-down hooks
(closest to the cab). Fasten to the bed re-using factory hardware. Refer to the picture on page 3.

Next, gather the two Front Upper Brackets.
Loosely assemble one 2-3/8” long Allen head
bolt, In-Bed Washer, and Nut Plate onto each of
these brackets.
Install the Front Upper Bracket assemblies by
inserting the Nut Plate into the slot located
towards the top of each bed side as shown in
the pictures on the next page. The nut plate
will have to be inserted at an angle in order to
fit. During this process, use caution so you do
not loosen the nut plate and drop it behind
the slot! Next, orient the nut plate so that it is
perpendicular and centered behind the slot,
then push the tabbed washer against the bed
side so that the tabs fit into the slot. If aligned
correctly, the tabs should prevent the nut
plate from spinning. While keeping the tabbed
washer in the slot, pull back on the bolt and
begin to tighten until snug, but do not fully
tighten, as the position of the bracket may need
to be adjusted. Perform this step for both driver
and passenger side.

For Ram 2500 / 3500 with 8-foot beds, we’ve included a pair of additional flat brackets. These
mount in the slots located above the wheel wells and are fastened in place using the same
method as the Front Upper Brackets from the previous step.
Next, prepare the Molle Front Plate to be installed. Thread a jam nut onto each of the rubber feet,
then loosely screw the rubber feet into the riv nuts located on the bottom flange of the front
plate.
Next, locate the two remaining Front Lower
Brackets. Loosely assemble a 3/4-inch well nut
and 1.5-inch long Allen head bolt onto each
bracket. Install the lower bracket assemblies by
inserting the well nut into the slot located just
next to the forward tie-down hook. Tighten the
bolt using a 7/32 hex key until the well nut is
snug in the slot, but do not overtighten. Once
all brackets are installed, the bed of your Ram
should look like the picture on the next page. Front Lower Bracket

Fasten all three molle plates to their brackets using the provided Torx-head screws and a T30 Torx
driver.
Screw the rubber feet in the front plate down until they are snug against the bed floor, then lock
the feet in place by tightening the jam nut against the front plate using a 10mm wrench.
Now that everything is installed, ensure that all fasteners have been tightened until snug, but do
not overtighten.
Your new MOLLE Panels are now
successfully installed on
your vehicle!
