I hate that the fold flat storage is now included in almost every option. It folds but its not flat. I had it on my 22' Raptor and now the Super Duty. I wouldn't have bought the Super Duty if I were still traveling with my dog frequently.

It does secure my smaller Milwaukee packout cases nicely though.

I ended pulling the storage unit, backing the mounting bolts down, filling in with some scrap pad/carpet and putting in the weathertech mat. In hindsight I wish I would have ordered the OEM full mat from Ford. The Weathertech has great coverage but it’s not as easy to take in and out as the ford one was. IMG_8942.jpeg

Out of curiosity, is there a reason you couldn’t just use a bolt from the top to secure the storage unit into the threaded holes? Instead of the stud and nut setup done at the factory?

I do not remember if the head of the bolt will fit in the hole, but if it doesn't you could use one that does. I don't see why not.

Yes it will defiantly work. I think they use studs for easy install at the factory. Note, When I removed my studs the right side came right out but the left side over the fuel tank was hitting something, possibly the tank itself, I never did recover that one. lol
