🛠️ What have you done to your F150 Tremor this week?

[S7vnty9]

I picked up a set of the Ultimate Retractable Ratchet Straps from Juggernaut Designs for the bed, and they’ve replaced the loose straps I used to keep rattling around back there. They’re made for the Ford BoxLink system, so they mount right at the factory tie-down points, and the strap retracts when you’re done instead of leaving a tangle on the bed floor. What sold me is the mounting hardware. The dual-pivot head swivels and tilts so I can pull the strap to a load from almost any angle, and the swivel mount sits on a 1/2" bolt. Juggernaut’s own testing against a single-pivot mount on a 1/4" bolt showed the lighter mount bending under the same load (Rhino). Overbuilt hardware is what I want for DJ gear in the bed. The quick release also lets me clear the space when I need the bed empty.
I'll say the only thing that annoyed me was having to take the extra time to spray the steel brackets with black truck bed liner. The website showed pictures and videos of the brackets being black, matching the bed. There was no option for choosing bracket colors and yet they came bare steel silver. Oh well.

Looks great. I bought another brad not realizing their mounting brackets prevent most molle panels so I'll be swapping them out, these are the ones i have in mind.
