Boxlink retrofit

so I am planning to get a new F350 around November this year, I currently drive a 2013 F150. I saw an awesome bike rack online that used the boxlink to attach and would like to build this rack now. Question is, can I buy the plates and install the boxlink brackets on my 2013 to hold me over until we get the new truck?

any insight would be great. Thanks!

I'd just ratchet strap the bikes in as if they were motorcycles, until your 18 arrives.


I generally plan on doing this with my bicycles permanently. I see no need for a rack of any sort, unless we're talking about more than 2.

Might go a different route and get a rack that goes over the bakflip tonneau cover. But I guess some ratchet straps will work until I get the specifics shook out.

Thanks!
