XL Model - Bed Tie Down Locking Rails

9443 Views 12 Replies 10 Participants Last post by  catinthebathtub
Question - doing my build for the new truck and when I select the XL Model - There isn't an option selection to add the Bed Tie Down Locking Rails with 2 Locking Brackets.

Anyone know why? I found this very odd, since the XL model would be more on the work truck side and "you would think" the truck would be more useful with the most tie down locations as possible.

I'd imagine it'll be available in the accessory catalog closer to delivery time. The threaded holes it mounts to appear standard on the bed across trims.

Since I’m not getting the XLT Lux pkg, do you think there will be generic type of tie down hooks placed around the bed as has always been the case of any truck?

Yes. If thou, you want a more factory look, you can order the bed accessaries from Ford. remember you will recieve Ford pass points to redeem at Ford. You can probably use them to get the tie downs for your new Maverick! :) I will use mine to get the floor mats!

Use your Ford pass points to get your bed accessaries....if you wish. Just a thought...

Look into aircraft L track. It’s aluminum and has all types of accessories to add to it. Not sure if it already drilled to the right pattern but I imagine it would not be hard to make it work.

There is a DIY video of adjustable bed rail lock downs on the Ford Website. If you are spraying in your bed liner buy a rattle can in black and spray paint them to match The look will fit in well with XL trims. Save your money or Ford pass points for other items.

Sorry my frugal nature kicks in at weird times. One of the reason Ill be buying an XL and going DIY route.

Hey! I know it’s been a month since this was posted, but didn’t see any super definitive answer. I just saw this short on Youtube of a video of a Maverick XL


There does appear to be a few bed tie downs, but not the accessory rail or many of the advertised tie downs on the XLT

Please advise a link where I can see that.

Thanks
what about just screwing eye bolts into the threaded holes? anyone know the thread size?

UPDATE
nevermind (they are tiny 6mm) i found the ford video with a well done DIY presentation for an eyebolt system. (thats where i got the screw size)
