Swingbox/Boxlink question

Does the Swingbox from the vendor attach by the Boxlink or do you need to buy the Ford one to use Boxlink connection?

Would rather not drill holes in the bed.

Thanks in advance.

The SwingBox has two brackets, one bolts onto the 3 holes in the pocket behind the taillight. It requires removing the taillight to attach. The other bracket uses the existing screws (bolts) holding the Boxlink on. The Boxlink remains in place. If you have the inbox trailer plug you will block it if you install one on the drivers side. On the passenger side it looks like it will block the LED light on that side.

Beware that they may send the incorrect bracket to install over the box link. If they do, just shoot them and email and they will send the correct one.
