Some ABS 1/4-20 threaded t nuts I made

Most of these bed rail t nuts I see have to be inserted at either end of the rail and moved all the way down the rail to your desired position. With these ones I can just pop them in, twist 90 degrees, and they're ready to go!

 

Love it! I hate how the others have to be inserted at the end. I have some brackets permanently attached so that other style of t-nut isn’t practical.

I wonder how much load these plastic ones could handle.

 

Going to *starch(wtf autocorrect?) the print file or is it already on thingaverse?

Sweet!

 

Have you tested the potential of them to come loose and turn themselves 90 degrees and fall out? Good idea!

 

How about some for the stock roof racks of other Toyota's?

 

I threw a nut and washer on with a slightly longer bolt to lock each t nut into place. Should do the trick to keep them secured.
