5.1.1.1

Installation without slide rail mounting fixture

Make sure the specific install drawing supplied with the lift gate matches the truck and gate to be installed

1) Locate the 8 mount brackets on the chassis as indicated by the installation drawing. The brackets

must be square to and level with the floor of the body at the precise height indicated on the

installation drawing.

Each mount bracket requires a minimum of 8” of ¼” weld. If the mount

bracket location is over the wood filler it will be necessary to

install a ¼” steel backing plate at least 1” wider than the mount bracket and long enough to

weld to the body long sill and truck frame. The steel backing plate must be attached to the

chassis and body with at least 8” of ¼” weld and the mount bracket welded to the backing

plate with 8” of ¼” weld. These plates if installed may serve as the required sheer plates tying

the body to the chassis frame.

2) If ¼” plates are required install them at the previously determined locations and permanently weld in

place with a minimum of 8” of ¼” weld.

3) Locate the liftgate mount brackets precisely as indicated on the installation drawing. Stitch weld each

bracket to the chassis with a minimum of 2” of ¼” weld across the top of each bracket.

Make sure the brackets are precisely

located per the installation drawing and are straight and level.

4) Carefully lift the gate, (push-pull cylinders retracted) and located front to rear per the installation

drawing until the top of the slider rail are against the horizontal legs of all 8 mount brackets and

located.

While lifting the gate into the mounting position make sure it does not

contact chassis components such as frame cross members, wiring, fluid

or air lines. Chassis component such as cross members may have to be modified or removed

to accommodate the push-pull cylinders and bracket. Any modifications must be done in

accordance with chassis manufacturers recommendations.

5) Locate the push-pull cylinder bracket between the frame rails in lateral alignment with the push-pull

cylinder. Be aware that the cylinder attachment will be off the centerline of the chassis by

approximately 1.5”. In addition the push-pull cylinder bracket must be mounted high enough to hold

the end of the push-pull cylinder assembly 1” off the tray.

6) When the proper position for the push pull cylinder bracket is determined it should be stitch welded

into place using 2 ea. ¼” welds, 2” long on each end of the bracket.
