Today we'll be reviewing part number EM09085. These are the Erickson Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors. There are two included. The sturdy anchors are going to service tie-down points in your truck bed. They just simply install into the truck's stake pockets; not tools are required. The anchor itself provides three different mounting holes and angles to chose from.
They're made from a chrome-plated steel construction so they are going to stand up well against rust and corrosion. It's also going to compliment your truck's trim. This is a universal application so it's designed to fit most truck bed stake pockets. Each one is going to provide a weight capacity of up to 2,000 pounds. To go over a few measurements real quick, the top plate, which is this portion here, is going to measure 3 3/8" x 2 1/4". The arch plate is going to measure 2 1/2" x 1 1/2".
The best way to determine whether or not this is going to fit your stake pocket mount is the arch portion here goes into the stake pocket. As long as your stake pocket has a length less than 2 1/2", then these are going to work great because it's going to give it plenty of room to grip and to get a secure hold as you tighten down the anchor on there. The way this works is you would place this inside your stake pocket mount on your pickup bed. Then you can put the rubber plate on top to help protect the surrounding finish of the stake pocket mount. Then you can take your top plate, fit it on there, and then you would just take your anchor and simply thread it on. These bolts have a thickness of 3/8".
Once you have that fully tightened down - the more you tighten it, the more pressure it's going to pull up on that arch plate and provide a more secure hold inside the stake pocket mount. Once you have that on there, you're ready to make your connection and you're ready to get on your way. That's going to complete today's review of part number EM09085. These are the Erickson Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors. .

Easily add a tie-down point to your truck with these Erickson stake pocket anchors. They install in your truck bed's stake pockets, safely handle a WLL of 2,000 pounds each and feature an attractive, chrome-plated finish.They work great but after 2 months on the truck they started to rust and continue to get worse
These are the bomb! I installed them on my beloved 1990 F-250 and they work great. This beast lives in the elements 24/7/365 and these tie-downs show zero wear!
These are a very nice product and good value for the money.
I installed these on my 1992 F150 even though they were not shown to fit. The rear ones went on perfectly and took 5 minutes each to install. My stake holes not right for the front anchors and I spent an extra 10 minutes on each trimming the anchor base plate too fit.
Anyone with mechanical ability can make these work and now I can keep coolers and things from sliding around in the bed of my truck.
They fit nice in pockets lock down good and simple
I put them in my bed for an additional hitch point
They will rust over time but the design is great to tie off a rope or put a hook through the loop
Also it only requires a small hole be drilled and you can mount it anywhere in the sheet metal where you can access the back side (to install backplate)
Stainless would be better but I don’t think this shape is available like that.
The Erickinson Stake Pocket Tie Downs do not fit a GMC well - I had to work hard to get the under plate in and then it is not centered so the rubber gasket does not cover the complete opening of the stake pocket. I still haven't been able to get the anchors in the front stake pockets and are trying to figure out how I am going to get it done. They are chrome plated and one of the 2 I have put in peeled of some of the "chrome" off before I was finished attaching. I really like the choices I have for tying down different loads but I don't think they will last long.
I've had a set of six of these on my long bed F-150 for at least 15 yrs. They are very strong and allow many different ways to tie your load down. This is a great design for a stake pocket anchor. I wish this design was available in stainless steel as my truck sits outside and these will rust if not covered or otherwise protected. I recently had to purchase a set of two in order to replace one anchor because I accidentally let the threaded flange fall down inside the bed body and couldn't retrieve it. Luckily, I was able to find these at etrailer. I highly recommend these anchors.
Product is built in a strong, useful way. Useful hooks and loops, however did not fit my truck properly. needed to modify part that clamps tie-downs in place in order to get them to fit stake pocket. Manufacturer indicated they fit my model and make.
Great product. Very quick delivery. Easy installation of very sturdy tie down anchors. I definitely recommend this product.
I haven't had a chance to try them but the instal was easy and they look great. The best thing is that the anchor isn't just a loop you can tie around the corners. I love how they fit on any size bed because you just angle the lock and tighten. It's a great product at a better price.
Very strong and attractive stake pocket tie down. Eliminate straps and use turnbuckles to hold down your camper, or other cargo. This three way tie gives you many more options of tie holds to hold even more cargo.
Best of the best.
I got just what I wanted--I will note that if you
have a spray in bedliner it makes mounting
these somewhat tight
These worked great for 1996 F150. Had to modify the the bracket that goes into the pocket for them to fit into the middle and front stake pocket. Nice look to the truck and seems very strong. I do wish they where made out of stainless steal.
Parts camed within a few days in great condition. Unscrew from package and make sure "pocket plate" has the bent ends facing up before inserting. Do not completely unscrew the assembly during installation-just run the "pocket plate" down as far as threading allows.
Make sure "pocket plate" is 90 degree's from top plate during install.
Tip the whole assembly down into the pocket so the bottom plate is below the top lip of the truck bed pocket, once inside hold assembly up while turning to tighten to keep the bottom plate from going out of 90 degree.
When tightening keep a eye on the truck bed sheet metal, the bottom plate can and will deform it if you tighten too much (I used a long pry bar for leverage).
Good sturdy product. Installed in minutes without an issue. I like it. I would definitely buy again.
The Erickson Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors, are perfect for what I needed, VERY STRONG, extremely easy to install they work great for all my needs. I'm always needing to tie down stuff in the back of my truck, they work great with all types of applications from ropes, bungees to straps very happy with the this product. I would highly recommend these Tie-Down Anchors to my friends and family.
Great Job !!!

I love the product. It was a big deal to get it installed. NOT the products fault or design. I own a 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT. The stake holes were the problem. I tried to install one and it would lean to one side. I tried a different stake hole, the same problem. I decided to feel around in the hole. I found that the side facing out, the lip was 1/8 inch or less and would not let the brace go under there. I had to get up in the truck bed with a piece of round steel rod and put it in the hole and hit it with a hammer to drive the inside of the stake hole out so the brace would fit in right. Make sure to use a rag around the rod so it does not scratch the top of truck bed. Sorry no pictures available.
Easy to install,and a great price,however they bent easily when you tied a rope to them. Still functional but surprised they were not stronger
Bought for a 2013 Ford F150 Supercab. I drilled and used the existing stake pocket covers rather than the supplied rubber gaskets. They look fine.
I found these on line via a search engine and they are just what i was looking for-I ordered them a few days ago and they arrived today, so very fast shipping-
Product was shipped promptly and received without damage. Installation was straight forward an and will hold so much better than my previous hold downs. I waxed the chrome top and bottom as well as oil the screw based on other feedback that they tend to rust. So far they appear to be a quality product.
Good products, website, order service & delivery
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA+
I like the way the product works but both plates bubbled up and rusted
EZ Install - More than serve their purpose - Great value!
