Cargo management in bed

Egress · Dec 27, 2014

I have no idea what they are really called, but I would like to purchase something along these lines. I want them to attach to the floor as seen in the picture, I dont trust placing a load on the sidecaps.

The points in my bed are not everything I ever wished for so I want to add a few things that will make it easier to secure odd items such as my table saw, compressors, home depot junk.

Any inputs or reviews would be greatly appreciated.

Nice. I lime the idea of a palatized system sometimes. I will check next week when i go to the truck shop locally.

Found a set on summit racing's website.
Can't find any reviews for them though...

One of my previous trucks had these installed by a previous owner. They worked ok, but I was always a little leery of the anchor slipping out of the track... (it never did, but the possibility was there, so I had extra straps going to the stake pocket openings)

I like..

Thanks guys, I was able to find random ones on a few diff sites but I usually wont purchase anything until I've read reviews about the product. I like the idea of being able to secure things and when its not needed I can remove the fasteners and still be able to put a sheet of plywood in the back.

What you have picture is Nissans Utili-track, it was a factory option on Titans
This is similar to what you're looking for

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for. Will be ordering the 48" black kit + the Deezee tailgate assist when I go back into work.

I've never used that system before
My only experience is with E track, I don't believe it would sit down into the channels as its to wide or I wouldn't hesitate recommending it

actually that's a good point. I have no way of being able to measure the recessed track of my actual bed but I did see a Ram truck on the Army side of the base a few nights ago. I could walk over there and take a quick measure later tonight.

According to the manufacturers website
Uni Trax Series 1000, Maxx Trax Series 2000, Lock-IN-Load Anchors, Core Trax Aids : Core Products USA the dimensions in inches are as followed:
1.3 W x .4 H x 4.75 L
1.3 W x .4 H x 36 L
1.3 W x .4 H x 48 L
1.3 W x .4 H x 96 L

Since I plan to use the 4' tracks due to having points in the front as well as a truck box, 1.3" is a touch over 1 1/4" I am sure that will fit. Memory tells me the actual recess it a minimum of at least 2", I've been wrong a LOT before though lol. I think I'm going to still lean forward on this especially with 25%off, worse case is they do not fit and I return them or install them elsewhere.

Looks like a company is selling L-Track under their own marketing name. There are a number of choices if you search for L-Track.
I like these because they have so many color choices and a number of accessories available.

One concern is if you put those on the bottom of the bed right next to the wheel well you won't be able to use them very well for strapping pallets down as the pallet will be on top of the tied down channels.. Almost think it would be better to get four smaller 12" or 18" lengths installed in each bed corner.

If I cN find ones that suit my needs I may try to install four boat dock stainless cleats in the be as they will accept ropes and hooks.
