Take off older pre-2002 pod. Place the aluminum plate (provided) on the old rear “L” bracket.
Make sure the plate is sitting square on the old “L” bracket. With a marker, transfer the two existing holes to the aluminum plate. (See Figure #1 & 2).
Drill two ¼” holes in the plate.

 Attach the plate to the “L” bracket with bolts, washer, & nuts provided.
(Figure #3)
Slide the new “L” bracket (provided) between the plate and the nerf bar. |
 Place the side pod on the brackets to check pod position and levelness (most of the time the “L” bracket is level with the plate). Figure #4 is a view from the bottom . Make sure you have turning clearance between the side pod and front & rear tires. |
 Remove the pod and mark where you need to drill two ¼” holes in the plate and the new “L” bracket. (Figure #5) |
 Clamp the "L" bracket to the plate before drilling. After drilling the holes attach the “L" bracket with the bolt, washer & nut in the bottom hole only. (Figure #6) |
 Set the pod back on the “L” brackets and mark the location needed for holes in the front (Figure #7) and rear of pod (Figure #8). Make sure the new pod is lined up level with the pod on the opposite side of the kart. Verify tire clearance |
 Take the pod off and drill the holes in the pod (Figure #9). |
 Remount the pod on the brackets using the remainder of the bolts in kit.
(Figure #10) |

NOTE: It’s up to you if you want to cut off the old, rear “L” bracket. The front "L" bracket is normally OK, but you may need to cut ½” to 1” off the old bracket if it extends out beyond the pod.
