Ford F-350 Mac's Custom Tie-Downs - Easy Cargo Containment
We began the installation of the VersaTie tracks by fitting the track to the bedside and marking the locations of the mounting holes. We then drilled the appropriate mounting holes in the bedsides.
The VersaTie track was then secured to the bedside using the provided stainless steel hardware.
With the tracks mounted to the bedsides, we moved to the bed floor where we arranged four VersaTie tracks: Two were situated lengthwise at either side of the bed and one each at the front and rear of the bed. We then marked and drilled the necessary holes for mounting, taking care not to drill through anything important on the underside of the bed.
With a buddy underneath the vehicle, we bolted the VersaTie tracks to the bed floor using the provided hardware.
Here the VersaTie tracks are shown installed in the bed of our Brute. With the tracks placed throughout the bed, we'll have plenty of tie-down anchor points for securing all types of loads.
Using the new ratcheting tie-down straps from Mac's, we secured a typical weekend load in the bed and gained peace of mind that we wouldn't be backtracking our route looking for lost gear. The connector rings can also be moved anywhere on the track to achieve the best anchor point for a particular load.
The Mac's combination axle straps are a great means of securing a vehicle on a trailer for towing. The 2-inch by 8-foot straps offer a wide ratchet handle and integrated axle straps with an adjustable loop diameter. A protective sleeve is also included in the loop to increase durability.
