The JackRabbit is designed to carry rainwater from the cover into the canister and then out through the drains. Most truck models have standard OE drain holes or plastic/rubber access ports in the front of the truck bed. Check to make sure your truck has the OE drain holes so that drilling into the sheet metal is not required. If drilling is necessary, be sure to check the underside of the truck bed for the best location. The holes should be located near the side and as far forward as possible. Use a drill bit suitable for sheet metal (such as a taper drill or step drill). Drill drain tube clearance holes at 3/4” (19mm). This will need to be done before installing the cover.

Installation
1. Place the coach on a level concrete surface. Measure each side of the coach from the front wheel well to the ground. Record these measurements as you will need them in Step 9.
2. Place a jack under each side of the frame just behind the leaf spring shackles. Jack the coach up high enough so that the tires are just off the ground. Place a jack stand next to the jacks to prevent the coach from falling off the jacks.
3. It works best to install one side at a time. Remove the lower shock bolt. Remove the factory sway bar, trac bar, trac bar axle mount (located on driver’s side - keep these bolts as they will be reused). Remove upper trac bar mount (located on passenger’s side inner frame rail - keep these bolts as they will be reused. Remove the leaf spring. Keep track of the U-bolts that hold the front of the leaf in place as well as the bolt that connects the rear of the leaf spring to the shackle.

Make sure you park the vehicle on a level concrete or asphalt surface. Many times a vehicle is uneven (side-to-side) from the factory, but usually not noticed until a lift kit has been installed which makes the difference more visible. Using a measuring tape, measure the front and rear (both sides) from the ground up to the center of the fender opening above the axle. Record below for future reference.
