Would Erikson Tie Down # EM01003 Fit 2009 Ford F-150 with Bed Rail Covers

Question:

I have a 2009 Ford F-150 extended cab with a 5.4. There is side rail covers on each side with a pop out piece for the tie downs. Do you know if the Erikson model will be flush with the cover? My other question after reading reviews is will they become difficult to pull up after they age?

We've had several customers with similar Ford trucks to your 2009 Ford F-150 report back that these Erickson Tie Down Anchors part # EM01003 fit well in their stake pockets. These also will fit flush in the opening of your covers as well like what you see in the picture I attached. Over time they make get difficult to raise and lower if they are exposed to a lot of dirt, salt, or other elements. You might spray some WD40 down into them periodically to prevent that.
