jerks snagged my tie downs

I guess thats what I get for having them repaint my truck twice.
I haven't had much luck finding something that goes inside the bed.
I don't want anything on top of the rail as I strap down heavy equipment at times.
Ebay hasnt been much luck and google has sold out to the man.

and ideas on where to get some ?

Did Ford include tie downs in the bed for your truck? Sorry for my ignorance, you can see that I don't really have a pickup, but rather a chassis cab.

get those rail system tie downs
They look like they would work
you can mount them to the inside side rails, under a cover or mount them to the bed floor
good luck!

I guess I'm reading this wrong but if the paint shop took your tie downs I would open a 6 pack of whoop ***.

i would file a formal complaint and possibly a police report. even if the shop has no idea which one of the employees did it, they will usually take care of it instead of going through all headaches you could cause.

the cops are busy chasing 2 serial killers at the moment.
I have a local stainless steel fab shop with a laser cutter.
They get enough business from me to whip up a few for free.
They painters did leave 2 out of 4, so i can have them copy the original.

just time and perseverence.
