Box Link problems installing cleats.
OK, I might feel stupid if the answer is easy but on my 2015 xlt I had no problem locking the Box Link cleats into the bed. My new 2017 is a complete PITA! do I need to a side wheel and take some plastic off the cleats? I have 1 cleat in and the other 3 feel like I'm going to have to pound the **** out of them to get them all the way into position. Anybody else ever have a hard time installing. Any help would be appreciated.

I appreciate the reply's. Man I was pretty steamed trying to get them in. I'll give it another shot tomorrow. I don't remember my 2015 being so difficult to install. At least I know I'm not doing anything wrong. Maybe the manufacturer needs to check their "go- no go gauge" on these things.

I have a spray in and they were a pain in the *** to get in, hence why they stay in. No need for the locks as you will need a mallet to get them back out lol. if i plan on taking them i will shim the brackets so it's not so hard. I thought i would have to trim them too but some persuasion with a mallet did the trick.

The Box Link option didn't really take off, did it? Ford or the aftermarket never expanded on the idea by making more accessories for the mounting points. The only ones I can think of are the ramp mounts and the bed divider.
No reason for these cleats to have locks on them. I doubt anyone would ever want to steal one.

Funny, I'm thinking of buying the whole setup for my truck. I looked at a prior year truck a while back that had "cargo management". What happened to that? That appeared to be a more versatile system. Anyway, it's good to have more places to tie down, but as noted above, it would be good to have some kind of additional hardware so you could adapt things to the system, or even have more "factory" do-dads to choose from.
