Stake Pocket Tie Downs
Has anyone fitted tie downs in the stake pockets on 67 -72 bed.
Thinking of these for my 72 Stepside http://www.putcosales.com/Putco-Push...wns-PRD67.aspx or something similar. Ideally no drilling and will go under tonneau |

Re: Stake Pocket Tie Downs
I bought a truck in San Diego that had a bed liner (bad bedwood) and the commonly seen stake pocket tie-downs. It was shipped on the tail of a flatbed, came through a big wind storm along the way. When the truck arrived, no bedliner. No big loss there, did me a favor. But those tie-downs were sittin' pretty. They do what they were made to do very well. Those look nice. I wouldn't spend much to get better looking ones, personally, because they would only be put in place while in use, so who cares?

Re: Stake Pocket Tie Downs
I thought these from LMC looked pretty cool. Not permanent, and no drilling or bolting. I've never tried them, so I can't speak to how well they work.

Re: Stake Pocket Tie Downs
Cool beans! Now that you've tried them out and like them, I'll have to add some to my list...
