Bed Bolt D-Ring Tie Down Points AT COST

How much hammer persuasion are we talking? I whacked it pretty good and that washer didn’t budge.

Snapped it with just an 18" bar by hand. Kind weird.

I meant to get the washer off. The bolt came out fine.

I have one more set left in this round. Shipping them Monday. Otherwise, I’ll be taking orders and it’ll be about 3-4 weeks before the next round ship out.

For those who like to see how the sausage is made, I recorded the grinding process and threw it up on the World Wide Web. The video shows the interference with the bolt and what is removed to allow it to sit flush. After this, I dip them into a diluted mix of TSP, rinse them off, dry, and hit them with 3 coats of enamel engine paint.

Nice work talbor, thanks for doing this!

All d-rings in round 3 shipped Tuesday. That’s over 100 d-rings thus far. For those that have received yours, let me know if you have any feedback.

If you want in on round 4, shoot me a PM. They should ship in about 4 weeks. Have to gather all the orders, order stock, and make them.

I received mine last week. Really nice job. I'm letting the bolts oil soak for a day or two, then I'll mount and send pics.

Thanks, Matt!

Got mine Friday and installed them over the weekend on my Gen1.

Thanks again Matt!

Those are size 16. That was intentional - just asserting my dominance on the forum!

16?? You should have a license plate on the back of those. Perhaps even a Raptor logo.

Hey Talbor, sent you a PM a few days ago about getting a set from the next batch, but haven't heard back. Just checking to see if/when you may be doing another run of these! Thanks!
