[–] WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (2 children) The anchor points are usually in the bed or the side of the stake holes. On my truck (half ton dodge) none of the places to tie on to are visible. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] otb@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago Good point lol, guess I don’t have much experience with these style of vehicle. I’ve only ever worked with the aluminum tray back type with anchors on every visible surface. permalink fedilink source parent [–] grue@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago On my truck (old Ford Ranger) the stupid plastic bed liner obstructs whatever tie downs there might be, so I end up hooking my ratchet straps on the lip of the fender/bed side. (I'd get rid of the bed liner, but I'm scared to look at how much rust there might be under it and also can't justify the cost of even a DIY spray-on/roll-on replacement.) permalink fedilink source parent
