H3T Box Rail Removal?

Post by AVNINE »

Hey guys,



Working on nick's h3t. Is there a way to remove the plastic on the box rails? I mean without the old sawsall?



I've tried searching countless forums... no luck. Any leads would be great!



Thanks guys,

Justin

Can you put picture of what you want to accomplish. Its hard to understand what you're asking exactly.

thx for the picture, dont remove the bed lining because the rail is held in place by fastener clip on's, here is the exploded view and instructions.Image



Pickup Box Side Upper Molding



Procedure

1.Begin lifting at the rear edge of the box panel molding.

2.Lift the pickup box side upper molding working forward to release the 22 integral retainers from the outer box panel.

3.Upon assembly of the new box side upper molding, align the four retainer pins to the box outer panel.

4.Working from front to rear apply downward pressure to the molding in order to secure the integral retainers to the outer box panel.



Hope it solved the mystery <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... >/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />



Update on this subject

If you want to remove the rail under the cover you'll have to remove the side of the bed liner as follow:



1.Open and support the endgate.

2.Remove the pickup box liner - front. Refer to Pickup Box Liner Replacement - Front.

3.Lift the latches and remove both front cubby doors by lifting outward then upward from the pickup box side liner.

4.Lift the latches and remove both rear cubby doors by lifting outward then upward from the pickup box side liner.

5.Remove all four cargo tie down hooks. Refer to Cargo Tie Down Hook Replacement.

6.Remove the pickup box liner. Refer to Pickup Box Liner Replacement.



Side Retainer ( Qty: 8 )



Remove the four lower endgate cable bolts.
