Rail Measurements
Length : 58 3/4"
Width: 5 3/4"
Thickness: 15/16"
The rails mount to the rollbar in front via 2 tapped holes.
The back mount is more complicated. The rail attaches to a
wood bracket with 2 wood screws. The bracket is secured to
the body with 2 mounting bolts.
Front mounting measurements
Legend ::
Holes are referred to as 1 and 2 with 1 being closest to
top of rail. Exterior refers to the surface facing the
outside. Interior refers to the surface facing the bed.
Front Exterior :: [Exhibit A]
Center 1 --> Center 2 (Measurement Z) : 2 3/16"
Center 1 --> Top Edge (Measurement Y) : 1 3/4"
Center 2 --> Bottom Edge (Measurement X) : 1 7/8"
Center 1 --> Front Edge (Measurement W) : 1 3/4"
Center 2 --> Front Edge (Measurement W) : 1 3/4"
Diameter of 1 and 2 : 3/8"
Front Interior :: [Exhibit B]
A : 7/8"
B : 1 1/2"
C : 1 1/2"
D : 7/8"
E : 2 3/8"
The thickness of the box is @ 3/16". It's purpose is to
offset the rail on the roll bar to provide a level surface.
Rear mounting measurements
Legend ::
The rear mounting bracket, herein referred to as bracket, is
comprised of 3 separate pieces of wood which are glued together.
The layers are referred to as 1, 2, and 3.
Bracket :: [Exhibit C]
Layer 1 : 11 3/4" H x 2 3/8" W x 3/4" Thick
Has a 1/2" 45 deg angle top cut
Layer 2 : 4 1/2" H x 2 3/8" W x 7/8" Thick
Layer 3 : 4 1/2" H x 2 3/8" W x 7/8" Thick
Total Thickness of 1, 2, and 3 : 2 5/8"
Bracket :: [Exhibit D]
M & N : 7/8 Diamter holes
Center M --> Bottom Edge : 3 1/2"
Center N --> Bottom Edge : 1"
The other 2 holes in Exhibit D are used to attach the rail
to the bracket. I did not give exact measurements for these
because you will want to make sure the rail is level and
these can be adjusted. These other 2 holes are countersunk
and 1" wood screws are used to hold the rail to the bracket.
