Question:
My stake pockets are 5 1\2 wide. Will the pins on the 4 1/2 wide tiedowns work or will they just come up through my pockets.

Hello Richard, thanks for reaching out. I went out to our warehouse and measured the pin that comes with the Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchor # BR72ZR. The pins are 6-3/4" long overall. So while the anchor would be a bit loose in a 5-1/2" stake pocket, it sounds like the pins would be long enough to prevent them from coming up thru the pockets. You could always source a longer pin or bolt if needed.

Hey Richard, how did the fit turn out with the stake pocket tie-down anchors in your 5-1/2 inch pockets? Did the pins hold securely, or did you end up using a longer bolt? Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same setup.
