Track Fasteners.

A while back a CK5er from the Seattle area named Eric (I don't remember his CK5 username) recommended to me a quick release track fastener system for bolting my truck tool box to the floor. At the time I wasn't interested, but now I am.

I want a quickly adjustable fastener track that I can put in the bed of my truck that runs the length of the bed. I'll put it in the low-part of the bed ridges. Ideally, when fastened down, it will squish the carpet down enough so that it does not stick up above the high-part of the bed ridges by very much.

I want to be able to slide my truck toolbox throughout the length of the bed, and tighten it down wherever I'd like, or pop it out altogether quickly.

I've tried googling some stuff, but haven't come up with much.

Any brilliant ideas?

are you thinking something that's similar to what is used in a pickup bed rail?

just first one I found

Yes! thanks. The one you linked isn't what I was looking for, but the other one I found on their website is! Thanks.

Looks like they have a local dealer too.

should work out cool in that application.

Those would work great. I used them to tie my KTM in my truck. Never had an issue.

LoL..those would work great on our TOPPERS, could put the rails up there, and get a fab'd up roof rack to work on the tracks and then if you want to yank the roof, just put the Eye hook thingys and lift it up.

Colby, did you have any luck with these? I would love to see some pics if you did.

I haven't yet. As I'm coming up with long-term plans for my truck, this is getting a lower priority. Which is a bummer, because I'd really like to do this now. But, I need to spend my truck fund on other things. I'm considering a new engine/trans at the moment, but after I make some decisions there, the track fastener is on top of my list.
