Post Bed tie down loops

does anyone know the capacity of those tie down loops that are in the bed of the Supercrew. I need to haul my ATV with the tail gate down and would like to feel secure about those tie down points thanks

To not answer your question - I don't know what the rated capacity of the tie down points are, but I would be more concerned about your strap tearing/breaking than the anchor point coming loose. I have had several ratchet straps break after extended use, but never any problems with anchor points.

Of course, another option, albeit somewhat pricey one, is adding a bed extender to your truck. I don't personally have experience with one, but have talked to people who use them to extend their available cargo area for hauling an ATV.

And welcome to F150Online! I am sure you will find as many ways to spend money here as I have!

You need to ask Raoul. He is an expert on bed tying down!
