I just built this and it works fine. It’s utilitarian in a sense that it holds ice chest and other stuff to the back of the cab, fishing rods, and if I wanted to put one more fork holder I could but I only needled three.
I think I'll build a solution like this. Question though: does anyone know if the Boxlink system is designed to use E-track fittings, or is it a happy coincidence that they work?
I have developed a bike rack system for the Boxlink setup in the 2015 F-150's. This rack system allows you to put 4 bikes (staggered) in your short bed truck with the tailgate closed. You can also use this system with nearly every hard or soft folding tonneau cover. The included pictures show a steel bar with welded caps, however I have since started using aluminum bars with plastic caps, which are lighter weight, and do not rust. These bars are also professionally powder coated a textured flat black.
I can sell this system for $120 shipped to the main 48 states for each side. This would include two Kuat quick release fork mounts per side already installed and all the hardware needed to install directly to your Boxlink without drilling.
I can sell the system without the Kuat fork mounts for $100 shipped, allowing you to use your preferred fork mount system. This aluminium drills fairly easy with an average drill and you can place them how you like.
