Center the support tube and brackets on the trailer, then tighten. 2. The forward support tube should be mounted about 48” or more forward of the rear support tube. Mount it either onto a frame cross member or onto the V of the frame rails. If you choose to mount on the V, install the U-bolts parallel across the frame as shown to the left. 3. If you mounted the support tube on the V you will need to check your spacing. Measure the distance between the front and rear support tubes. Make sure they are an equal distance apart. Center the support tube and brackets on the trailer, then tighten the U-bolts. 4. Carefully push the four end plugs into the ends of the support tubes.
