Is the bolt in front of the rear axle .. Direct evenly over it? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I've never done this before. I know I am fully capable of doing this save myself for work, but I just need some direction on how to do it. Any web sites so grateful. Anyone some Once installed first?? I really need help here.

that bolts to the center of the frame on that one, just above the rear wheels have to remove the bed and I mounted and then cut a hole in the bed to leave, has to be mounted on the frame in order to work properly, carefully measure the bed where you have to cut once this is mounted on the frame, I installed some of these before, you really need a bigger truck to mount it in, good luck.
