For customers using clamp kit 57-6102: Four clamps total (quantity of two 57-6102) are used on standard beds. Six
clamps total (quantity of three 57-6102) are used on long beds.
1. Take the U-shaped bottom clamp and place it underneath the bed rail so that only the threaded portion is showing (Figure
5), next take the top clamp and place it on top of the truck rack bed rail. Align the threaded hole in the bottom clamp with
the hole in the top clamp and attach them both together using the supplied M10 hardware (Figure 6). Anti-seize is suggest-
ed for these fasteners as the bottom clamp is aluminum and will prevent the bolts from becoming seized over time. Torque
the fasteners to 25 ft lbs.
2. Repeat this Step 1 for the rest of the clamps.
Figure 5 Figure 6
12. Locate (1) support tab and loosely secure onto the truck bed rails using (1) M10 x 75mm hex head bolt, (2) M10 flat wash-
ers, (1) M10 nylock nut, (1) long M6 button head bolts, (2) M6 flat washers and (1) M6 nylocks nut. See Figure 4.

AUTOMOTIVE PRODUCTS, INC.
San Dimas, California WARNINGS & NOTICES
FOR THE INSTALLATION OF
WESTIN HDX OVERHEAD TRUCK RACK
NOTICE
Westin HDX Truck Racks are designed to accommodate a load of 700lbs max. Closely follow all
Westin Installation Instructions for the proper installation of product. Improper installation can re-
sult in death, serious injury, and/or product and vehicle damage. In the operation of these prod-
ucts, it is imperative to observe precautions for your personal safety and the safety of others.
Failure to follow these instructions could lead to death, personal injury, and / or property damage.
FASTENERS:
All Westin supplied fasteners must be utilized and installed in accordance with the installation instructions
and apply torque to the specifications as defined. DOUBLE CHECK ALL FASTENERS BEFORE INI-
TIAL USE, AND PERIODICALLY IN THE FUTURE TO ENSURE PROPER FUNCTION AND SAFETY.
DRILLING:
Most Westin products do not require drilling for installation. If drilling is defined as required, use caution
when drilling a vehicle. FAILURE TO REVIEW AN AREA TO BE DRILLED MAY RESULT IN PER-
SONAL INJURY AND/OR INJURY TO OTHERS AS WELL AS VEHICLE DAMAGE.
EYE PROTECTION:
ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES OR GOGGLES DURING THE INSTALLATION PROCESS TO
AVOID PERSONAL INJURY.
MAXIMUM CARRYING CAPACITY:
The Westin HDX Truck Racks will have a Max carrying capacity of 700lbs directly on the product. The user
should never exceed the manufacturer’s GVWR as overloading can cause serious damage to the body-
work of the vehicle regardless of the capacity of the Truck Rack. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE GUIDE-
LINES WILL VOID THE WESTIN WARRANTY AND MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR
INJURY TO OTHERS AS WELL AS VEHICLE DAMAGE. In addition, anytime a user places a load on
top of a HDX Truck Rack, it will notably change the handling characteristics of the vehicle and may in-
crease the chance of a rollover. Westin cannot control the way in which the end user loads material on the
rack; therefore it is the sole responsibility of the user to secure these materials safely (distributing weight
evenly) to the rack before transporting.
