studs go through the trunk lid and are fastened using washers and lock nuts.
2. Hand tighten the lock nuts only at this point.
3. Attach the trunk to the body by pushing the hinge studs through the body. The hinge studs then go
through the hole on each of the "Z" shaped metal brackets. The "Z" shaped metal brackets should be
hanging down directly behind the ¾" arched tube.
4. The hinge studs and "Z" shaped metal brackets are held to the body with lock nuts, as installed at the
factory. Rivet or screw the "Z" shaped metal bracket to the arched ¾" tube, where they cross each
other.

1. The trunk latch hook and mount are pre-assembled at the factory.
2. If the trunk latch assembly was disassembled for painting, re-assemble the trunk latch T-handle (third
part of the three-lock set) in the center of the trunk. On the inside portion of the trunk you will need
to slide the latch/hook over and onto the shaft.
3. The trunk latch hooks onto a pin. This should already have the hinged cap, latch pin sleeve, washer,
and nut assembled in the assembly bag. Remove everything except the hinged cap.
