One of my favorite accessories for moving is a large cargo net that can cover the whole bed. Makes packing the small things that may fly away a lot easier.
On a side note - A week ago on the highway around Madison I witnessed someone lose a couch out of the back of their truck! No idea how it didn't cause an accident since it was sitting in the middle of the road.

I have the Cargo Net also... It does get plenty of use.
I rarely used the factory tie down points... I had flip up hooks in the stake pockets, and used those for any tie down.
I am loving the versatility of the bed rail tie downs I now have.

I think I'm going to hold off on the 1 ton axle swap. There are no good deals to be had and I would rather wait until I can fab it up with a ford axle like WK. So I'm going to put a Detroit Truetrac in the back and maybe the front too. Going to put the money towards a radio and speakers since mine are shot, and maybe build some bumpers with recovery points.
Well went to the store to pick up a few things and the truck threw a P0302. Cylinder 2 Misfire. I had already noticed the truck was shaking a little differently.
Anyway, got home, popped the hood and on the passenger side bank. The even numbers. I noticed it looked like a wire had fallen down onto the exhaust manifold. Well i reached down there to grab it and check it out.... while the truck was still running..... my arm still feels a little funny. At least I have good spark!!
This was tonight. And after dropping the wire after receiving some number of thousand volts through my hand I could see it arcing to the manifold. New wires tomorrow. Might check the plugs too. Been a good four years for the wires and 2 on the plugs. Up to 230xxx miles now.
