Installation Tips:

When installing the G2 Cantilever on a TracRac G2, it is easiest to install both over head racks onto the base rails first(with the cantilever saddles on the front rack). Once the racks are assembled, slide the front rack towards the back of thetruck bed and this will provide a stable platform to install the cantilever and crossbar.

Use:

The Cantilever Extension will not increase the loading capacity of your TracRac. Load should be evenly distributedacross the two crossbars of the overhead racks.The cantilever extension is meant to protect the cab from long non-rigidmaterials.

Overloading your Cantilever Extension may clamage the TracRac System of your Truck. Carrying high loads overrough roads with excess speed may damage the system. Exercise caution and good judgm~nt at all tlrnes.

Ifthe clearance between the underside of the Cantilever Extension Crossbar and the roof of you truck is less than 2:do not install the Extension. Your truck may sustain Damage. CallTracRac Customer Service@ 800-50; -1587 for custominstallation information. .
