    Can anyone recommend a replacement bolt for the bed attachment bolts that include tie down points such as a D-ring? Something that would rotate to flush with the bed when desired.

    I have no great way other than a cargo net to secure smaller objects in the bed. Was driving around with some marine batteries recently and had to drive like an old lady so they wouldn't smash around inside the bed.

    I've seen a mod on here that was nice, but want to just purchase some parts outright if able.

    Awesome thread, but since the bolts that hold my bed in place are all rusted out anyway, and I plan on replacing them, I was hoping there was a replacement part out there that came with a D-ring that requires no additional modification. I know that's lazy, but I acknowledge and accept that.

    +1 to dodge sprinter d rings, have them on my front bed bolts and middle bed bolts (short bed). think i spent 15-20 bucks for some BEEF d rings, and they go on real easy and i use em ALL the time.

    Thanks for the pointers to the D-rings -- I read the linked post, and can't figure out what's meant by grinding down the retaining ridges...did you all have to do that when you made the mod?

    Its only so you can take the washer off the bolt . When you remove bolt you will see what they talking about .You can alco use socket to pound off as seen in other threads .

    I guess I'll just have to go ahead and order the new ones and see. My current ones are pretty badly rusted and I wanted to replace them anyway. Thanks!
