Installation Instructions for the 1-Bike Add-On for Kuat Transfer V1
Question:
I received the box but it was a little beat up and not sealed. The parts were floating around in the box so not sure I Received all the parts or not. There was no instruction manual so I could not take inventory either. I will send a picture of all the parts I received. Any help to confirm I got all the parts and maybe an instruction videoOr literature to show installation?. Thanks

Sorry to hear about that but the good news is you do have everything you need, I went ahead and verified that for you.
To install these pieces together, you'll need to start by sliding the front tire assembly into position, and secure with the locator bolt. Use the Images I've attached to help reference what is what since you probably aren't sure.
I've also got the step by step process attached and labeled for you to check.
Next, push the button on the handle and slide the tire hook up from the bottom of the tire hook arm, then insert the arm knuckle and install (2) M6 x 60 flathead bolts with (2) M6 nuts.
Continue on by removing the (2) M4 x 12 flathead bolts from the driver and passenger side endcaps. Remove the endcaps ad set them aside.
Next, attach the driver side assembly to the rack by using the (2) M8 x 350 bolts and spacer. Alternate tightening for an even, secure fit.
With that done, move onto the passenger side and attach the passenger-side assembly to your rack using (2) M8 x 255 bolts and spacer.
Finally, just reinstall the endcaps from earlier and you're all done.
