Hooks in the bed w/ tool box
I've been interested in getting a diamond plate tool box for a long time but I've never really done anything about it because as of now the only hooks I have in the bed are the ones by the cab, the two drains. I think the truck has two in the back but my bed liner is covering them. Anyone have the same problem? Anyone know exactly where those are so maybe I could cut two circles out of the bedliner for them?
seems like they are about 18 inches or so in from the sides of the bed. they sit deep and are kind of a pain with the drop in liner the back ones are about 3-4 inches up the back bed post i found those after i had a liner sprayed in. front ones arent to bad to get to if you have a box but you do have to drop to a knee to find it. youl probably want to pull the liner to find them mark them and cut it off the truck.... merry christmas
What I did with my Delta Diamondplate toolbox is drill a hole lil ways back from the corner on each side and put an eyelet bolt (lil over 1" eyelet I believe, can't remember for certain) and then put a piece of angle iron on the inside up against both sides of the corner. Worked great so far with no problems hauling my quad or motorcycle. Not sure how heavy of loads you need to be tying down, this works for most of my stuff, and if it's something really heavy I can wiggle myself underneath and get a strap in the factory hooks
