13 Trouble Shooting Instructions 8 Problem Possible Cause Solution Hitch won t open or close easily Hitch no sitting level when uncoupled Banging and/or bumping felt during stopping and starting from stop Front end of truck feels light and steering feels loose and has swaying Trailer is not sitting level when coupled up (Front to back) Jaw adjustment bolt too tight Trailer weight on locking bar Trailer king pin raised too high Locking bar is gummed up with dirt Trailer is on uneven ground (This should not be a problem if you have a double pivot hitch) Locking bar is bent Single pivot hitch should have some tilt downward towards tailgate only, if some side to side, rubber bumper(s) damaged or missing Jaw adjustment bolt too loose Jaw adjustment bolt missing Trailer hitch weight is light, which may cause bouncing at hitch Trailer hitch weight is too heavy Hitch was installed too far rear of the axle Improper hitch height setting and/or improper king pin height setting Trailer suspension too high or low Truck suspension too high or low Follow procedure for adjusting jaw bolt (see diagram 2) Block trailer wheels, idle truck backwards in reverse, apply parking brake, place in park, re-try to uncouple trailer Lower trailer so front of king pin box contacts the middle of the hitch first. This will let the hitch level itself to allow smooth coupling and uncoupling (see diagram 3) Squirt some WD40 or oil into the locking bar tube, work handle loose, open and close several times, and re-grease locking bar (see diagram 1) Place a piece of wood under the tire of the low side of truck to help level, then uncouple Contact Victoria Industries Limited at: Ph: Fax: Replace rubber bumpers (available at Victoria Industries Limited) Follow procedure for adjusting jaw bolt (see diagram 2) Install a new bolt and locking nut (available at Victoria Industries Limited) Check trailer manufacturer s hitch weight. Shift weight towards front of trailer Check trailer manufacturer s hitch weight. Shift weight towards back of trailer Re-locate hitch to above or slightly ahead of axle as described in the installation instructions Adjust addle bracket up or down on siderail plates to correct or king pin may need to be adjusted (if adjustable) Axle of trailer can be moved to top or bottom of leaf springs on most trailers to adjust the trailer height Riser block or other suspension extenders may need to be removed from high ground clearance 4x4 s to accommodate trailer

14 Trouble Shooting Instructions 9 Squirt WD40 or other oil into locking bar tube, open and close locking bar several times, and re-grease. Adjustable Jaw Bolt Setup: Make sure the handle is lubricated between arrows at all times. To do this, pull handle all the way out and turn down then brush with grease. Diagram 1 All Fwh24, FWH24PA, and FWH34 fifth wheel hitch heads are equipped with an adjustable jaw bolt. The jaw bolt is not adjusted at the factory. This allows the customer to set the jaw to the amount of play they prefer to have, in order to couple and uncouple with ease. To adjust, make sure nut B is loosened away from the hitch. With the hitch in the closed or locked position, tighten bolt A up finger tight till it can t go in any more. Then back bolt A off ½ a turn and tighten nut B up against the frame with a ¾ wrench to secure the bolt. This initial adjustment should give the proper amount of play to ensure smooth coupling and uncoupling, as well as a smooth ride. If further adjustment is necessary, repeat the procedure by adjusting the bolt a ¼ turn each time. Bolt A Diagram 2 Nut B Incorrect Correct Diagram 3

25 Ultra Hitch Install Shim 20 Due to some of the configurations of corrugations in the bed of the box, we supply for use 4-3/8 x 1 ½ x 5 spacers to prevent the box from collapsing in slightly during tightening of the bolts that go down through the box. With the space between the ribs wider and taller on some trucks, the end of the base rails do not span across the valley of the ribs creating a potential for crushing. The following procedures are recommended. **The use of the UL FB washers is not needed when using the 3/8 spacers for installations. Extra 3/8 x 1 ½ x 5 shims are available from Victoria Industries Limited so they can be stocked by the dealer/installers along with any optional frame brackets. 3/8 x 1 ½ x 5 spacer Typical Ultra Install End view showing spacer spanning from flange to flange under the base rail.

146 Hijacker Underbox Mounting System Ford F250/F350 Super Duty Ford F450 Super Duty (For install in 6 ½ and 8 boxes only) FB General Assembly and Install Instructions Hitch Assembly: 1. Place the base rails on a flat level surface and insert and lock the side rail plates into the base rail holes as shown in the UM instructions. 2. Loosely bolt the saddle bracket (403PA) and the two cross braces to the side rails using the fasteners provided in the UM carton. 3. Tighten all the bolts. 4. Unlock and remove the hitch assembly from the base rails and put to the side for later. Truck Bed Drilling Instructions: Note: On some model years you will have to undo the emergency brake cable from the frame on the driver s side. Reattach after hitch installation. It may also make the install easier if the truck s rear end was lifted and blocked and/or remove the rear wheels to have more access for drilling of the frame. The four 2 diameter holes that need to be drilled through the box are done by the following method: 1. Use the measurements shown in drawing #1 to mark out the four holes that will be drilled through the truck bed. 2. Start out by measuring 37 3/4 from the end of the bottom of the truck bed (tailgate end) to a point on the left side of center of the bed and mark it. Do the same on the right side of center of the bed and mark it. Draw a line across the bed using these two marks as a reference. 3. Measure out and find the center of the truck bed and draw a line from the front to the rear of the bed. 4. Measure out 14 13/16 to either side of the middle centerline slightly ahead of the fender well and slightly behind the fender well. 5. Draw a line between these two points. Do the same on the other side. 6. Measure out (towards the cab) 13 1/2 from the points where the line that goes across the bed intersects with the two lines that are 14 13/16 off the center running the length of the bed. Mark these two points. 7. There should now be four spots marked out for drilling. Double check that the rear to hole marks are exactly 37 3/4 from the end of the bed and that the front holes marks are exactly 13 1/2 forward of those marks. 8. Check the hole marks from side to side and make sure they are exactly 29 5/8 apart from each other. 9. Finally, check for square by measuring diagonally from opposite corners (drawing #2). The measurement should be the same both ways. It should measure 32 9/16.

147 10. After all the hole marks have been double checked for proper placement, use a center punch and hammer to mark out the spots for drilling. 11. Drill the holes using a 2 hole saw. De-bur the holes using a small file and apply some touch up paint to match colour (not supplied). Drawing #1 Drawing #2

148 Base Rail Installation: 1. With the four 2 holes drilled in the truck bed, insert the base rails one at a time with hole side up on top of the truck frame at the point just forward of the axle (drawing #3). Insert the first rail all the way to span across to the other side of the frame and slide it back towards the holes closest to the tailgate and position it under the holes. Repeat with the second base rail and position under the forward set of holes. Insert at this point and slide rearward to position under holes Drawing #3 2. With base rails in position below the bed and the base rail holes centered under the holes that were drilled in the bed of the truck, re-install and lock the hitch assembly into the base rails from the top side of the box. 3. Measure and center the entire hitch assembly side to side and front to back so that it is as close to center of the holes in the bed. 4. Attach the frame brackets (oval holes) to the tapped holes in the ends of the base rails using the 1/2 x 1 1/2 bolts and lock washers provided. 5. Tighten the bolts to the base rails. 6. For the 2011 model year installation is a no drill application that uses existing frame holes. See drawings below. 7. For 2010 and earlier models use the holes in the frame bracket plates as a guide and drill the frame in the two smaller mounting holes on each frame bracket with a 33/64 drill bit. You may want to drill smaller pilot holes to make drilling easier. The larger 3/4 hole and bolt is not used for these earlier installs. It is best to install a 1/2 x 1 1/2 bolt, washer, and lock nut after each hole is drilled to ensure there is no shifting of the hitch while drilling the next hole(s). 8. Tighten all bolts.

149 9. Re-install the rear wheels (if removed), double check all fasteners for tightness, and lower truck (if raised). 10. Unlock and lift the hitch assembly out of the box to make sure it can be removed and inserted with relative ease. If there was any shifting during installation that caused any binding, simply loosen the 4 bolts that attach the base rail to the frame brackets and realign the base rail and retighten. 11. Ensure the side rail locking pins are turned and secured in the locked position with the safety pins. Install the hitch head to the saddle bracket.

152 Base Rail Installation: IF the base rails are unable to be slid into position because of insufficient space by the lip of the box bed, then use one of the following two methods to install the base rails. 1. A) Remove the mounting bolts that attach the box to the truck frame on one side only. Raise and block the box high enough so the base rails can be inserted (with locking pin holes up) and span across and rest on top of each side of the frame (drawing # 3). Lower and bolt the box back to the frame. Position base rails under holes drilled in bed. OR B) Locate a spot on both sides of the box support cross members on either side of the truck and cut and bend up a 3 1/2 wide section of the sheet metal lip where the bed and the fender well of the box join (drawing # 4). Insert base rails (with locking pin holes up) and span across and rest on top of each side of the frame (drawing # 3). Bend the sheet metal back down and position base rails under holes drilled in bed. IMPORTANT: Ensure that the shorter base rail with the angled crossbar is in the position closest to the tailgate with the vertical side of the angle beside the box cross member (drawing #5). Angle allows clearance for motor/pump assembly. Bend up Cut Drawing # 3 Drawing # 4 2. With base rails in position below the bed and the base rail holes centered under the holes that were drilled in the bed of the truck, position one of the 1/2 thick shims under each end of the base rails between them and the top of the frame.

Do the same on the right side of center of the bed and mark it. Draw a line across the bed using these two marks as a reference. 25. Measure out and find the center of the truck bed and draw a line from the front to the rear of the bed. 26. Measure out 14 13/16 to either side of the middle centerline slightly ahead of the fender well and slightly behind the fender well. 27. Draw a line between these two points. Do the same on the other side. 28. Measure out (towards the cab) 13 1/2 from the points where the line that goes across the bed intersects with the two lines that are 14 13/16 off the center running the length of the bed. Mark these two points. 29. There should now be four spots marked out for drilling. Double check that the rear to hole marks are exactly the distance stated for the model of truck you are doing the installation on (refer to model on chart) from the end of the bed and that the front holes marks are exactly 13 1/2 forward of those marks. 30. Check the hole marks from side to side and make sure they are exactly 29 5/8 apart from each other. 31. Finally, check for square by measuring diagonally from opposite corners (drawing #1). The measurement should be the same both ways. It should measure 32 9/ After all the hole marks have been double checked for proper placement, use a center punch and hammer to mark out the spots for drilling.

Base Rail Installation: Heat Shield Removal: Drawing # 1 On some models there will be a heat shield that is attached to the bottom of the truck box that will have to have a section of it removed to make clearance for the base rail(s). 5. If the shield is below the level of the top of the frame, the base rail will have room to span across from frame rail to frame rail. 6. If the heat shield is above the level of the top of the frame, the shield must be cut and removed before the base rails can be installed. 7. Cut the heat shield just rear of the box support cross member that is at the front of the wheel well of the truck (see drawing # 2). Remove the screws that hold the rear section of the heat shield in place. A # 25 Torx head driver or and/or a 10 mm wrench or socket will be required to remove these screws. 8. Remove the heat shield. Rear of truck Cab of truck Drawing # 2 Cut here Remove bolts

169 Use one of the following two methods to install the base rails. Note: It may make the install easier if the truck s rear end was lifted and blocked and/or remove the rear wheels to have more access for drilling of the frame. 22. A) Remove the mounting bolts that attach the box to the truck frame on one side only. Raise and block the box high enough so the base rails can be inserted (with locking pin holes up) and span across and rest on top of each side of the frame (drawing # 3). Lower and bolt the box back to the frame. Position base rails under holes drilled in bed. OR B) Locate a spot on both sides of the box support cross members on either side of the truck and cut and bend up a 3 1/2 wide section of the sheet metal lip where the bed and the fender well of the box join (drawing # 4). Insert base rails (with locking pin holes up) and span across and rest on top of each side of the frame (drawing # 3). Bend the sheet metal back down and position base rails under holes drilled in bed. Bend up Cut Drawing # 3 Drawing # With base rails in position below the bed and the base rail holes centered under the holes that were drilled in the bed of the truck, position one of the 1/8 thick shims under each end of the base rails between them and the top of the frame. Drop a 5/8 x 1 1/2 bolt through the top of the end of the base rail and shim (drawing # 5). Re-install and lock the hitch assembly into the base rails from the topside of the box.

170 24. Measure and center the entire hitch assembly side to side and front to back so that it is as close to center of the holes in the bed. 25. Attach the frame brackets to the base rails. Fasten with the 5/8 bolts that were inserted in the mounting holes and secure with a 5/8 flat washer and 5/8 lock nut. 26. Tighten the bolts to the base rails ensuring that the frame bracket is up against the truck frame. 27. Install the 5/8 carriage bolts and bolt plates by fishing them through an access hole on the inside of the frame and fasten them to the outside of the frame brackets with the 5/8 flange nuts. See drawing on last page. 28. Tighten all bolts to 150 ft. lbs. torque. 29. Re-install the rear wheels (if removed), double check all fasteners for tightness, and lower truck (if raised). 30. Unlock and lift the hitch assembly out of the box to make sure it can be removed and inserted with relative ease. If there was any shifting during installation that caused any binding, simply loosen the 4 bolts that attach the base rail to the frame brackets and realign the base rail and retighten. 31. Ensure the side rail locking pins are turned and secured in the locked position with the safety pins. Install the hitch head to the saddle bracket.

Truck Bed Drilling Instructions: Note: It may make the install easier if the truck s rear end was lifted and blocked and/or remove the rear wheels to have more access for drilling of the frame. The four 2 diameter holes that need to be drilled through the box are done by the following method: 1. Use the measurements shown in drawing # 1 to mark out the four holes that will be drilled through the truck bed. 2. Start out by measuring from the end of the bottom of the truck bed (tailgate end) to a point on the left side of center of the bed and mark it. Do the same on the right side of center of the bed and mark it. Draw a line across the bed using these two marks as a reference. 3. Measure out and find the center of the truck bed and draw a line from the front to the rear of the bed. 4. Measure out 14 13/16 to either side of the middle centerline slightly ahead of the fender well and slightly behind the fender well. 5. Draw a line between these two points. Do the same on the other side. 6. Measure out (towards the cab) 13 1/2 from the points where the line that goes across the bed intersects with the two lines that are 14 13/16 off the center running the length of the bed. Mark these two points. 7. There should now be four spots marked out for drilling. Double check that the rear to hole marks are exactly (34 1/4 for short box and 36 1/4 for long box models) from the end of the bed and that the front holes marks are exactly 13 1/2 forward of those marks. 8. Check the hole marks from side to side and make sure they are exactly 29 5/8 apart from each other. 9. Finally, check for square by measuring diagonally from opposite corners (drawing # 2). The measurement should be the same both ways. It should measure 32 9/ After all the hole marks have been double checked for proper placement, use a center punch and hammer to mark out the spots for drilling. 11.

175 Base Rail Installation: Use one of the following two methods to install the base rails. Note: It may make the install easier if the truck s rear end was lifted and blocked and/or remove the rear wheels to have more access for drilling of the frame. 1. A) Remove the mounting bolts that attach the box to the truck frame on one side only. Raise and block the box high enough so the base rails can be inserted (with locking pin holes up) and span across and rest on top of each side of the frame (drawing # 3). Lower and bolt the box back to the frame. Position base rails under holes drilled in bed. OR B) Locate a spot between the box support cross members on either side of the truck and cut and bend up a 3 1/2 wide section of the sheet metal lip where the bed and the fender well of the box join (drawing # 4). Insert base rails (with locking pin holes up) and span across and rest on top of each side of the frame (drawing # 3). Bend the sheet metal back down and position base rails under holes drilled in bed. Bend up Cut Drawing # 3 Drawing # 4 2. With base rails in position below the bed and the base rail holes centered under the holes that were drilled in the bed of the truck, position one of the 3/8 thick shims under each end of the base rails between them and the top of the frame. Drop a 5/8 x 1 3/4 bolt through the top of the end of the base rail and shim (drawing # 5). Re-install and lock the hitch assembly into the base rails from the topside of the box.
