Boxlink ideas

I just bought a 19 F250 CCSB yesterday. I know what the boxlink system is supposed to be, but I don't really see much user for it other than the tiedowns that come with it. Anyone have any interesting or useful ideas for the boxlink system OTHER THAN tiedowns? I may weld up a weekender style ladder rack for mine, but have no real ideas otherwise.

Thanks guys.

BTW... I've already learned a ton about my truck and have saved money by reading and researching on this forum, so THANK YOU. I used to be a moderator on a Mustang forum back in the day, so I'm not new to forums like this and how useful/scary they can be. Lots of great info here. Again, thanks guys.

I didn't find any other idea's for using them other than a tie down point. I do like your ladder rack idea. Post some pics of the rack when your done
BTW, I'm a mustang guy and I'm on a few of the forums. What site were you a moderator on?

E Track accessories will fit and many more options than the couple Ford offers with boxlink.

Check out this website. I would not invest much money in the Ford system other than to use it as tie down. Box link is a great idea but they never got creative with it.

Built Right offers a cool rack system that is easy to install and very durable.

I use a set of e-track large hooks on one side to hold my 'grab stick' for pulling stuff out from the front. They also work to hold rope, extension cords, etc...
