Truck Bed Anchor Point Recommendation for a 1969 Ford F250

Question:

Im looking at the Pop Up Truck Bed Tie Down Pair by Pilot. I have a 1969 Ford F250 with hole size of 2-1/8 x 1-11/16. I am wondering if these products will fit? Thanks!!

After looking at the tie-down anchors that we offer I believe the best option you have would be to get Draw-Tite Stake Pocket Anchors # 92509. These are a universal fit product that should have no problem installing on your 1969 Ford F250.

The problem with the Pop Up Tie Down # WTD-810 is that the bottom plate that needs to be larger than the opening of your stake pocket is only an 1/8 of an inch larger than the opening of your stake pocket, which I do not believe would give you an adequate grip to provide the necessary strength.

I attached an FAQ on the # 92509 for you to check out also.
