INSTALLATION

Learn how to assemble and install your new River Quiver. View the complete guide in less than 10 minutes, and find the complete Manual below.

Note: If your crossbars are wider than 1-1/3 inches you will need to use our Extended Mounting Bolts to accommodate the additional width. Standard Mounting Bolts fit the majority of crossbar styles. We also sell an upgraded locking bolt if you want additional security for your River Quiver.

Standard Installation

This video covers everything you need to know for the standard mounting of the 2-Banger and 4-Banger River Quivers, Euro River Quivers, & Derek DeYoung Artist Edition River Quivers. We also share additional tips and tricks for measuring and fastening your mounting hardware.

Tools Required for River Quiver Standard Installation

Tools Required

For quickest install purchase our Riversmith Mini Ratchet, otherwise you can use any 4mm Allen Key.

You will need a 10mm Nut Driver as well so if you do not have one already you can grab one here.

Also will need a tape measure, marker and scissors handy.

Connecting the Extrusions

Using a 4mm Mini Ratchet (or Allen Key) loosely tighten the front coupler bolts in a criss-cross pattern. Then place the rear extrusions into the coupler and join with the final bolts. Careful not to over tighten as the bolts could strip under too much pressure.

Final installation step is mounting the River Quiver onto the crossbars

Mounting the River Quiver on the Crossbars

Line up the River Quiver and use the 4mm Mini Ratchet (or Allen Key) to tighten everything down in place.
