Where does one get these hooks circled in red? They look like they'd be really useful for strapping down certain loads. I only have blank cutouts in these areas and you can see the painted sheet metal through the cutout.

 

They come with the truck as part of the Box Link equipment. The dealer will normally just leave them in their factory package. If you didn't get them with your truck, I'd be in contact with the dealer from where you got the truck...once you've looked under the rear seat and all. You can buy them from Ford either from their parts department or from their accessories site, or get them off Amazon.

 

Mine where under the back seat. They come with keys. Should come with the truck

^^this........

 

Box Link (those tie downs) is what Ford calls them are standard on all models except XL. They should have come with your truck.

 

Found them under my rear seat just like you guys stated. You're the best! Thanks!!!

 

You've had that truck how long & just now discovering items under your rear seat??? That's a good one.

 

My thoughts, also....

 

I've only got 1100 miles on the truck. I have 4 other cars to drive and my wife has the van. The truck is to pull our trailer and carry stuff that won't fit into my other cars.

 

Do you know where your spare, jack & lug wrench are?

 

I think the bigger issue is how to get that lug nut cover off. There was quite a thread a while back about how difficult it is to get that thing off.

But yes, I did manage to locate those. I'm not confident I could get the wheel off though. I'd probably wait for roadside service.

Is it afternoon tea time yet?

 

So to piggy back off the OP's question..... I went to install mine the other day and couldn't get them to seat properly. They fit in the bracket that is attached to the bed however won't slide up far enough to lock them in place. I have a LineX bedliner, not sure if that is the cause or it's because I am technically challenged. If anybody else has had problems, or has a solution help a brother out!!! TIA

A few have had difficulty. Search "Boxlink" ... one thread linked below. Mine went in without issue.

Bought mine off Amazon.



Heck, I didn't even get a spare key with my truck.

 

If you have trouble mounting them, just grind down the back part of it. Looks like they are hitting the side wall of the truck. Once you grind them down, they go on.
