Corner tiedown have been plenty sturdy.
If you need something that lets ropes, cord, or straps to glide through easily use some quality carabiners.
e.g. - C.A.M.P. Nano 22 Rack Pack | REI Co-op

Have transported MC's without an issue.

That much I know. But strapping in a box truck vs an aluminum body pickup doesn't impart the same amount of confidence. Admittedly, I have no clue as to where any reinforcement is in the F-150's bed so ?

So what? Should we just let shit fly all around the bed instead? Nobody said we had to strap down 3 tons of steel tubing.

Got my KR in October 2024, the dealer pointed out under the rear seat, the Box Link plates in a small box.

Good instructional video

Those plates don’t come with the 24 trucks. Also when I saw the guy prying against his bed with a screwdriver then the yellow drill, I was done. But thanks for sharing.

Tough crowd. I haven't been able to find any video on how to install these in an F150 with bed liner. They are from Amazon. The plate is very solid, the tiedown has a little more play than I would like but i have basic furniture loads and minimal cargo.

I would think that you will have to cut the liner at the correct spots. Or sell it and go the spraying liner route.

The video shows either cut some of it away or press the liner to the side and pry it back. it is doable with a liner installed.

If you have an opening like the video, and are trying to open the holes to allow removing and installing the bolts and the plates easier? I would use a Drimal tool to make the hole larger first. If you don't have a Drimal tool, you can buy the bits for that purpose and use it in a drill motor.
