Locating The LATCH Lower Anchorages
The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat
cushion where it meets the seatback. They are just visible when you lean into the rear
seat to install the child restraint. You will easily feel them if you run your finger along
the gap between the seatback and seat cushion.
Locating The Tether Anchorages
In addition, Regular Cab models have tether strap anchorages behind the front
center and right seats. Quad Cab, Mega Cab and Crew Cab models have tether strap
anchorages located behind each of the rear seats.
Center Seat LATCH (Crew/Standard/Quad Cab Full And Standard
Bench)
Do not install a child restraint in the center position using the LATCH system. Use the
seat belt and tether anchor to install a child seat in the center seating position.
Center Seat LATCH (Crew/Mega/Quad Cab Split Bench)
If a child restraint installed in the center position blocks the seat belt webbing or
buckle for the outboard position, do not use that outboard position. If a child seat in
the center position blocks the outboard LATCH anchors or seat belt, do not install a
child seat in that outboard position.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The LATCH Lower Anchors
NOTE:
Never "share" a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints.
1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat
so that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle
anchorages.
