Cargo Management System - GMC 2009 Sierra 1500 Crew Cab Owner's Manual

Cargo Management System

For vehicles with a cargo management system, it is
located in the bed of the truck. The system contains
three rails located on the front and sides of the bed.
The system has four adjustable cargo tie-downs, that can
be placed on the upper and lower slides of the rail.
To adjust a tie-down, pull the locator pin out and move
the tie-down to another location making sure the
locator pin lines up with a locator hole on the rail.
The tie-down pin may not be installed correctly if the pin
does not line up, turn it over and reinstall. The tie-down
will not move when the pin is completely installed.
The maximum load for each rail is 500 lbs (227 kg).
The rails are notched at each end which allows the
tie-downs to be removed and placed on another rail.
To remove, pull the locator pin out and slide the tie-down
to the end of the rail and pull back.
To remove or install cargo tie-downs at the front of the
bed, slide the corner cap towards the center of the
bed to expose the rail notches. To remove the corner
cap, pull either edge away from the rail.
To remove the system, loosen the toggle bolts on each
rail until they can be removed from the bed of the
truck. To replace the system, place the toggle bolts and
rails into their original locations and tighten them to a
torque setting of 12.5 ft lbs (17 Y ).
If the system is removed to install a bed liner, make sure
there is no bed liner material in the installation points.
Notice: If cargo is tied down using the horizontal
slots on the top of the pickup box, the box could be
damaged. Using the horizontal slots on the top of the
pickup box for tie-down locations may cause damage
to the pickup box and would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Only use the tie-down loops if
the vehicle does not have the cargo management
system.
