Frame Rail Installation
Pre-Install Mounting Tubes for High Frame: (continued)
10.Install Front Angle Mount. Loosely bolt the Front Angle Mount on the other end (front) of each Mounting Tube (See Figure 33). Notice the washer that is installed be- tween the Angle Mount and Mount Tube, This is there because about a 1/16" Gap is needed between the Mount Tube Plate and the Angle Mount Plate. Putting this 1/8" thick washer on the front Angle Mount end only will allow for this Gap on both ends. (See Figure 33 & 34) This should be done on right hand and left hand side Mounting Tube. This Gap allows the High Frame with the Mounting Tubes welded onto it, to be lowered down between the front and rear Angle Mount, which will be welded to the Frame rails later. Do not do any tack welding till instructed to.
