red triggers on the King Joe and adjust
the support arms to the proper width now
just tighten everything up let's mount up

any contact points are nice and clean
the lower support is going to carry most
of the weight so make sure it's resting
on a well supported location there we go
the license plate depression is a common
spot that's often got what it takes
first run the top strap hooks over the
frame and attach the top edge of the
trunk lid hatch lid or rear door tighten
the straps to the hooks are parallel to
the body of the king joe pro if the
hooks don't fit in these spots alternate
attachment methods using the included

full product instructions second run the
bottom hooks inside the frame to secure
spot on your vehicle
this may be the bottom edge of the trunk
on a metal bumper or even under the
vehicle finally attach the side straps
to a secure spot on the side of the
trunk hatch or rear door and tighten
them up tuck those loose ends into the
flexible fan and let's load it up if you
have a joe trunk rack with adjustable
load arms unlock the inner hub and raise
them to angle slightly upward lock it up

more friends with more bikes alternate
bike directions for the least
interference and finish it all off by
