NOTE:
If the bed liner storage bins (if so
equipped) are installed on the vehicle,
use type B cleats (if so equipped) in the
side channel locations. The use of type A
cleats (if so equipped) in the side channel
locations with the bed liner storage bins
installed will interfere with bed liner
storage bin lid operation. For additional
information on bed liner storage bins, re-
fer to “Storage” in the “Instruments and
controls” section of this manual.
The Utili-track® channel system allows you
to move tie-down clamps in the bed to the
best location to secure a load.
The tie-down cleats must be installed so
the clamp is properly seated in the notches
in the rail. If the tie-down cleat is not seated
in the notches, it will not be flush with the
rail and cannot be properly tightened. The
bolt in the center of the cleat must be tight-
ened hand tight (20 – 40 in-lbs.)
Check the tightness of the tie-down cleat
periodically during a trip to make sure the
center bolt has not become loose.Install the tie-down cleat as follows:
1. Remove the channel protectors by slid- ing them out the back of the truck bed.
Properly store the channel protectors.
2. Loosen the center bolt completely.
3. Insert the cleat into the channel per-pendicular to the channel as shown.
Then rotate the cleat clockwise 90° and
slide it to the desired location.
