INSTALLATION
1Start by installing the pin track on whichever side of the bumper you are
installing your carrier on. Make sure that when you line the holes up, the
small bolt holes are counter sunk. Then use the 1/4”-20 x 1/2” flat head
bolts and 1/4”-20 serr. flange nuts to secure it in place.

2Next, install the spindle into the bumper. Put the larger end of the spindle
into the hole on the pin track. Then, use the 3/4” x 1-1/2” bolt with the
3/4” washer to secure it onto place. To do this you will need to insert the
bolt and washer into the threaded hole in the bottom of the spindle by
reaching around to the back of the bumper from the bottom.
INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION
3Next, grease both bearings and the rubber seal. For more in-depth
instructions on how to do so, watch the installation video. Then, flip your
carrier door upside down, and insert 1 bearing and the rubber seal into the
hub. Make sure that in this orientation, the smaller end of the bearing is
facing down, and the soer rubber lip of the seal is facing up. You will then
need to tap the seal into place using something such as a hammer and
screwdriver.

INSTALLATION
4Next, simply place the carrier onto the spindle.
5With that in place you can install the rest of the hardware into the hub.
Start by putting the bearing into place, making sure that in this orientation
the smaller end is again facing down. Then, place the 1” washer on top of
the bearing. Next, thread the 1” nut onto the top of the spindle to secure
the carrier into place. Make sure that you tighten it enough that there is no
wiggle in the carrier, while also being careful to not put unnecessary strain
on the bearings. You may need to adjust it once you mount gear. Finally,
thread the spindle cap onto the top of the hub and tighten it using the
provided wrench.

INSTALLATION
6Next, install the pull pin. To do this, grease the metal part of the pin and
screw it into the small round threaded hole just to the side of the hub. To
prevent the pull pin from sticking, we recommend greasing it frequently.
You will want to choose which grease you use and how frequently you use
it based on your climate and activities. Keep in mind: this is designed to
lock the carrier in the open position, not to bring a swinging carrier to a
stop.

INSTALLATION
7With the carrier mounted you can install the latch. Start by mounting the
small D shaped bracket onto the bumper using the 1/4”-20 x 1” hex head
bolts, 1/4” washers and 1’4”-20 serr. flange nuts. The mounting slots for
this bracket are located just below the carrier on the vertical face of the
bumper. Make sure that the open end is facing towards the carrier. You can
leave it loose for now in order to be able to adjust the position later. Next,
put the 1/4”-20 x 3/8” into the hole on the front of the bracket and secure
it with a 1/4”-20 serr. flange nut. This is just to give the latch something to
hold on to.

INSTALLATION
8Next, put the 2 rubber bumpers in the large holes in the latch mount and
install it onto the carrier using the three 3/8”-16 x 1” bolts and
3/8”-16 serr. flange nuts. One bolt goes on the inside of the carrier through
the bottom. These bolts can stay loose for now so they can be adjusted
later.

INSTALLATION
9Finally, install the latch onto the latch mount using the 1/4”-20 x 3/4”
button head bolts and 1/4”-20 serr. flange nuts. At this point you can
adjust the positioning of all the latch components so that the small nut on
the inside of the D shaped bracket sits roughly centered on the face of the
latch when latched. Once everything is in place, tighten all the loose bolts
the rest of the way.
