The components of this clamping adapter system are used to anchor the Audi A-2 vehicle which has jack tubes and lift tabs in its rocker panels. The system provides a positive means of securing these vehicles to the EZ Liner mainframe.
Clean jack tubes using one of the anchoring pins. (See Figure 1.)
a. Insert a steel punch (or bar) through the 1/2 inch hole at end of pin and use it as a handle.
b. Rotate the pin right and left as it is moved in and out of the jack tube hole.
NOTE: Holes must be clean to allow for easy installation and removal of the anchoring assembly.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use force to drive the pin into the jack tube. Using force to drive the pin into the hole may make it difficult (or impossible) to remove the pin.
1) Lift side of vehicle using suitable lifting device and place anchoring stands near front and rear corners of vehicle’s center section.
2) Position large angle support against back of anchoring stand and insert anchoring bolts through holes in support and through middle holes in anchoring stand. (See Figure 2.)
3) Position support plate against front of anchoring stand making sure anchoring bolts project through its mounting holes. (See Figure 3.) Secure the assembly using appropriate nuts and washers. (See Figure 3 Inset at right.)
NOTE: The front support plates are thicker at the bottom than the top. (See Figure 3 Inset at left.) This design positions the support post at a slight outward angle allowing it to mate with the lift tab hole at front of center section.
4) Position anchoring stand under front corner of rocker panel and project anchoring tube upward to engage support post with lift tab hole on bottom of rocker panel. Insert the anchoring stand’s height adjusting pin to maintain this position.
