Load Rating

Does anyone know the load rating of the front lashing points in the 8' bed of an 08 F350 Super Duty.

I want to hook up a Warn PullzAll winch to these to haul our 700 lb motorcycle up an 8' ramp into the bed.

Thanks in advance.

They are just what you called them Lash/Tiedown points. Do not use them to secure a winch for pulling. You would be better served to install a plate to each of the forward bed bolts. Then weld one of these to it

Available at; Large D-Ring - 5 - Mfg# B50

shorebird.

Thanks. Just been out and looked under truck. Can see a bolt up front of bed each side that goes through chassis and bed cross member. Cannot see upper end of these bolts as we have liner installed. Are these the bolts to attach anchor plates to?

These are the bed bolts. Carriage headed bolts that you remove the nuts from below. Yes they go thru the frame.

If you were to take these two front ones out do as above they will hold that wt easy.

Thanks - Looks like there is enough thread to install plates/anchor points using the original bolts
