2.If all is clear under the L-base, mark the position of the five (5) mounting holes and drill them using a 3/8-in. drill bit. Drill all mounting holes from inside the vehicle. See figure 9.
3.Reinstall the L-base and align the mounting holes of the L-base with the holes you just drilled.
4.Position the T-bar on the end of the base support that runs parallel with the rear of the vehicle, and install a mounting bolt and washer through it and the L-base. See figure 9.
NOTE: The T-bar need only be installed in van or SUV installations. When the lift is installed inside a trunk, it is necessary to remove the motor housing and upper post for the trunk to close.
5. Install the four (4) remaining mounting bolts and washers onto the L-base.
NOTE: Choosing the correct length bolt allows enough bolt-thread to pass through the undercarriage, ensuring enough room for the mounting washer and nut to be installed securely.
6.From under the vehicle, install the mounting washers and nuts to all five (5) mounting bolts and tighten. See figure 9.
NOTE: The two holes in the mounting washers are for working around obstructions. Choose the hole that best works in the area you are installing the mounting bolts.
