Installing Child Restraints Using The Top
Tether Anchorage
Regular And Mega Cab Trucks:
In the regular cab truck, the top tether
anchorages are located behind the center
and right passenger seats. In the mega cab
truck, the top tether anchorages are located
behind each rear seating position. There is a plastic
cover over each anchorage. To attach the tether strap
of the child restraint:
1. Place the child restraint on the seat and
adjust the tether strap so that it will reach
over the seat back, under the head restraint
and to the tether anchor directly behind the
seat.

2. Route the tether strap to provide the most
direct path between the anchorage and the
child seat. The tether strap should go between
the head restraint posts underneath the head
restraint. You may need to adjust the head
restraint to the upward position to pass the
tether strap underneath the head restraint
and between its posts.
3. Lift the cover (if so equipped), and attach the
hook to the square opening in the sheet metal.
Tighten the tether strap according to the child
seat manufacturer’s instructions.
Crew Cab Trucks:
The top tether anchorages in this vehicle
are tether strap loops located between
the rear glass and the back of the rear
seat. There is a tether strap loop located
behind each seating position. Follow the steps
below to attach the tether strap of the child
restraint.
WARNING!
Do not attach a tether strap for a rear-facing car seat
to any location in front of the car seat, including the
seat frame or a tether anchorage. Only attach the
tether strap of a rear-facing car seat to the tether
anchorage that is approved for that seating position,
located behind the top of the vehicle seat. For the
location of approved tether anchorages in your
vehicle, see
Ú
page 328.
