Tie down hooks

My dad has an 07 f150 and it has hooks inside the bed to tie things down with. They're extremely handy, and I was wondering if there was an easy way to install some on my bed.

I just went to the junkyard and found some. Drilled the holes, bolted them in and done. One in each corner & one on each side over the wheel well.

Does the side of the bed flex any when you pull them tight?

No, mounted to the flat spots in the bottom corners of bed. Pretty solid, ones over the wheel wells get dinged up from throwing in firewood.

I may now install them over the wheel wells and only do the corners. I wish I had time to throw them in before I'm done moving.

I got some in a package with some ratchet straps. I put the on the inside of the bed on the bed rail. All I had to buy was some lag bolts
