Missing tie downs

[FoMoCoDave]

M8x1.25 Stainless Eyebolts 5pc These are perfect for the upper inside front corners.
Those other boating style tie downs in the posts above are too small. they arent even 3" across if I read that correctly.
What about these Motorcycle tie down tabs lowest profile I've seen.

Remember stake holes? I miss those, and the tie downs that you could put in them, not that those would do me any good with the cap.

could also build a canoe carrier out of 2x4's and such. Now the closest thing to that costs 2000$.

Too small? Those eyelets are pretty small, they aren't 3" in diameter either, right? I like the eyelets, and have them in the upper corners of my truck too.

But if your using ratchet straps the tie downs only need to be big enough to put the hook through, and the advantage of the stock tie downs, and the F-150 aftermarket type above, is they capture (2) tapped holes, not one. That increases capacity.. maybe by as much as a factor of two.

The eyebolts are perfect size and I did see them on here before. There is/was also wrong link in this thread to a M6 version.

The PFCC are supposed to be for F250,350,450 range of trucks?, A call of Shenanigans on Amazon. The PFCC truck bed tie downs, plus ones I mentioned, moebulb tieddowns. Both are less than 3" across apparently. An answered question says the holes are 2" apart. The pic you posted says they are less than 3" across. I like that style and if somebody on here as bought some, let us know.

I did this with some I had from a previous colorado, minor modification for them to work. I don't consider them 'tie downs' ... more of a light duty location for tie points but I'd still use the oem locations for anything heavy.

My 2020 Ranger is missing the middle tie downs. After reading the post and looking up the cost of the tie downs from Ford (around 75.00), I decided not to pay that much for some pieces of metal and screws. Therefore I went to my local LKQ junk yard. It cost 3.00 to get in and I found some tie downs on some old Rangers (see photos). When I checked out, they said no additional cost. Therefore the tie downs cost me 3.00.

I was wrong. The tie downs I got from the junk yard, is too short and does not fit the 2020 Ranger. Sorry.

I have a 2020 Ranger crew cab with a 5ft. bed. I put a bed liner in the bed without taking any photo of the bed. Therefore, I do not know where all the tie downs and/or bolt locations for the attachments are. Can someone post some photos of the inside of the bed, so I will know where these locations are.

if it's the OEM liner you should have some round covers that pop off over each of the tie downs

Not my 2021 with the factory spray-in liner. I had to use a tap to clean out the holes for the middle tie down bolts. 8MMx1.25 FWIW,

Sorry, read it as a drop in liner

Mike is referring to a drop in liner.. not the spray liners. Here's a photo of a factory Ford drop in liner, with the round covers that access the tie downs.
