Front Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors For A 1997 Ford F-250
Published 10/19/2023 >
Question:
Hi, I ordered these for our 1997 Ford F250 short bed truck . They fit great in the back of the pickup bed but will not work with the front holes in the rail bed. Is there another option for the front? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
For the front stake pockets of your 1997 Ford F-250 I recommend the CargoSmart Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors # 348821. These have a more universal-fit design than the ProGrip Retractable Tie-Down Anchors # 317-850760 you purchased so they'll work, but they do have a much lower capacity at 200lbs (safe working load limit) and 600lbs (break strength).
