How Does the Westin HDX Headache Rack Install on a Truck

Question:
How on earth do you install this thing. The directions they give you are not clear.

Hopefully I can help make the install instructions make a little more sense for you. First thing you need to do is assembly everything that you see in the picture I attached aside from what drills through the bed rails.
Once assembled you would set the assembly on your bed rails where you want it to be (centered of course), and then mark and drill holes for the attachment of the rack. There's really not much more too it than that. I attached the instructions link that has more details on each step but basically you are going to loosely assemble the rack, set it in place, drill the hole needed and then tighten up everything. If there is a specific step you are having a hard time with email me back and I will do my best to help!
