LET’S GET STARTED!

1. FIRST STEP IS TO REMOVE YOUR INTERIOR DOOR PANEL AND ANY THING

THAT MAY BE IN THE WAY, LIKE INSULATION, ETC.

NOTE- YOU MAY HAVE ANY NUMBER OF DIFFERENT DOOR

CONFIGURATIONS- STOCK FULL TRIM, STOCK HALF TRIM, STOCK

PANEL, UPHOLSTERED WOOD, ETC. EACH REQUIRE THEIR OWN

REMOVAL METHOD. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PANEL STYLE TRIMMED

DOOR REQUIRES ADDITIONAL DRILLING AND THE USE OF THE

PROVIDED PANEL PLUG.

2. NEXT WE’LL START DRILLING THE THIRD MOUNT HOLE INTO THE DOOR OF

THE VAN. THIS IS A MULTI-STEP PROCESS.

A. GRAB THE PROVIDED TEMPLATE TO MARK THE LOCATION OF YOUR

HOLE AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 1. THE TOP AND RIGHT SIDE OF THE

TEMPLATE ALIGN WITH THE BODY LINES OF THE VAN AS SHOWN.

MARK YOUR HOLE, THEN PROCEED WITH DRILLING A 3/16” PILOT

HOLE.

B. IF YOU HAVE THE PANEL STYLE DOOR TRIM, AT THIS POINT YOU NEED

DRILL THROUGH AGAIN USING A 1/4” OR SIMILAR BIT THAT IS LONG

ENOUGH TO REACH TO THE SHEET METAL ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE

DOOR (SEE FIGURE 2) THEN DRILL THE HOLE ON THE INSIDE OF

YOUR DOOR TO 7/8“ TO FIT THE PANEL PLUG. THIS HOLE IS SIZED TO

FIT A 9/16 DEEP WELL SOCKET TO MAKE FASTENING EASIER.

NOTE- SKIP THIS STEP IF YOU HAVE THE OPENING ON THE INSIDE OF

YOUR DOOR AS SEEN WITH FULL AND HALF TRIM DOORS. SEE OUR

INSTALL VIDEO FOR THIS PRODUCT FOR MORE INFO.

C. DRILL THROUGH ALL WITH THE 3/8” DRILL BIT

D. USING THE STEP BIT, DRILL THE OUTSIDE HOLE ON YOUR DOOR OUT

TO 5/8” TO FIT THE DOOR MOUNTING BOSS (DO NOT INSTALL YET)

NOTE- WE LIKE TO MARK THE STEP BIT AS SHOWN BELOW TO

AVOID DRILLING TOO FAR.

3. NOW YOU CAN BEGIN ASSEMBLING THE TIRE CARRIER. ATTACH THE WHEEL

BRACKET TO THE TIRE CARRIER FRAME AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 3 USING

THE (4)

1/2-13 X 1.5 SQUARE NECK CARRIAGE BOLTS, (4) 1/2 SCREW FLAT

WASHERS, AND (4) 1/2-13 NYLON INSERT LOCKNUTS. ENSURE THAT THE (2)

BACKER PLATES ARE INSTALLED BENEATH THE CARRIAGE BOLTS AS

SHOWN IN FIGURE 3. TIGHTEN THIS DOWN.

NOTE-

4. OPTIONAL STEP- SINCE WE PROVIDE LOCKING LUG NUTS, YOU DO NOT

NEED TO INSTALL THE LOCK ROD UNLESS YOU WANT THE EXTRA

PROTECTION. LEAVING IT UNINSTALLED PROVIDES A CLEAN LOOK IF YOU

HAVE COOL CENTER CAPS FOR YOUR WHEELS. IT CAN ACCEPT VARIOUS

LOCKS, BUT OUR FAVORITE IS A TRADITIONAL HITCH LOCK.

TO INSTALL- INSERT INTO THE WHEEL BRACKET AS SHOWN BELOW AND

FASTEN USING THE (2) 3/8-16 X 1 HEX HEAD SCREW, AND (2) 3/8 SCREW

FLAT WASHER. THE DEPTH IS ADJUSTABLE TO SUIT YOUR SPECIFIC WHEEL

SETUP. ENSURE IT STICKS OUT ENOUGH FOR THE LOCK TO HAVE

CLEARANCE WITH YOUR WHEEL INSTALLED.

FIGURE 3

5. NOW SLIDE THE 5/8 SCREW WEATHER RESISTANT SEALING WASHER ONTO

THE DOOR MOUNTING BOSS AND PRESS INTO THE DOOR AS SHOWN

IN FIGURE 4.

6. THE NEXT FEW STEPS WILL REQUIRE A SECOND PERSON TO HELP OUT.

GRAB BOTH THE HINGE BACKING PLATES AND (4) 3/8-16 X 1.5 HEX DRIVE

BUTTON HEAD SCREW AND INSERT THEM INTO THE DOOR AS SHOWN

BELOW. ONE PERSON WILL NEED TO HOLD THESE IN PLACE FOR THE

SECOND PERSON TO PERFORM THE NEXT STEP.

7. WHILE SOMEONE HELPS TO HOLD HINGE BACKING PLATES AND HARDWARE

IN PLACE, FIRST INSERT THE 3/8-16 X 2.25 HEX DRIVE BUTTON HEAD SCREW

AND 3/8 SCREW FLAT WASHER THROUGH THE 3RD MOUNT OF THE TIRE

CARRIER AND INTO THE DOOR MOUNTING BOSS AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 5.

THEN FIT THE TIRE CARRIER ON TO THE PROTRUDING HARDWARE ON THE

HINGES OF THE VAN AND SECURE WITH (4) 3/8-16 FLANGED NYLON INSERT

LOCKNUTS. LEAVE THESE A LITTLE LOOSE TO ALLOW MOVEMENT OF THE

TIRE CARRIER FOR ALIGNMENT.

NOTE- THIS STEP IS TRICKY AND REQUIRES A BIT OF JUGGLING

BETWEEN THE TIRE CARRIER FRAME AND REQUIRED HARDWARE.

INSERT THIS HARDWARE FIRST

FIGURE 5

FLATLINE VAN CO • SUPPORT@FLATLINEVANCO.COM • 888-667-5576

8. FASTEN THE REMAINING 3/8-16 FLANGED NYLON INSERT LOCKNUT INSIDE

THE DOOR (FIGURE 6) AND THEN PROCEED WITH ALIGNING THE TIRE

CARRIER. ALIGN WITH THE DOOR/WINDOW BODY LINES AS SHOWN IN

FIGURE 7. CAREFULLY OPEN THE DOOR AND ENSURE THAT THE DOOR STOP

ON THE LOWER HINGE BRACKET ENGAGES THE FACTORY BUMP STOP. NOW

TIGHTEN ALL FASTENERS ON THE HINGES AND INSIDE DOOR.

NOTE- MORE DETAIL ON BUMP STOP IN OUR INSTALL VIDEO FOR THIS

PRODUCT.
