3. With the bed lowered, secure each cylinder rod end,
to the appropriate slots in the bed mounting plates
with a clevis pin and lynch pin. Insert the clevis pin
from outside of the bed with the lynch pin toward the
outside (Figure 34). The rear slots are for a full bed
installation and front slots are for a 2/3 bed installation.
Note: The engine may need to be started to extend
or retract the cylinders for alignment with the holes.
Keep fingers out!
Note: The unused slot can be plugged with a bolt and
nut to prevent assembly errors.
4. Start the engine and engage the hydraulic lift lever
to raise the bed. Release the lift lever and turn
off the engine. Install the bed safety support to
prevent accidental lowering of the bed. Refer to
Using the Bed Safety Support (page 34).

pins.
Note: If the automatic tail gate release has been
installed on the bed, ensure that the front dump link
rod has been placed on the inside of the left side clevis
pin before the lynch pin is installed.

Jacking the Vehicle

DANGER
A vehicle on a jack may be unstable and slip off of
the jack, injuring anyone beneath it.
• Do not start the vehicle while the vehicle is on a
jack.
• Always remove the key from the switch before
getting off of the vehicle.
• Block the tires when the vehicle is on a jack.
•
Do not start the engine while the vehicle is on a jack,
because the engine vibration or wheel movement could
cause the vehicle to slip off of the jack.
•
Do not work under the vehicle without jack stands
supporting it. The vehicle could slip off a jack, injuring
any one beneath it.
•
When jacking up the front of the vehicle, always place a 2
x 4 block (or similar material) between the jack and the
vehicle frame.
•
The jacking point at the front of the vehicle is under the
front center frame support (Figure 35) and at the rear it is
under the axle (Figure 36).
