Ok, Great. I want to buy one that was never used on craigslist. Is there any hardware that I need to get from ford? I have a new 2013 and there are a couple holes on the bed back there so thats why I ask.

There are 2 pins, which screw into the sides and act as hinges ... somewhat, similar to the pins that the tailgate latches to.
What is an OEM bed extender going for?

Bed extender installation.
A pair of 3/8" x 2" carriage bolts, a pair of flat washers and a 1" long brass bushing, cut in half, ... $3.30 in materials, did the job. The kits are available on eBay for $39.95.
One bolt tightened right up, the second one needed a nut applied to the backside of the bolt, through the tail light hole. ?? Maybe threaded metric or not at all ... the holes were well coated with spray-on bed liner.
It still should have some grommets in the locking pin holes.
I added the last picture, which is what I was most interested in ... to keep things from sliding forward. ... gas cans, beer, Coke, groceries, etc..

So, I took a look on Craigslist local and found an OEM 2004 F150 bed extender for $50 .. no pivot pins, as the truck had been stolen. He dropped the price to $40, so I had to bring it home. Fits my 2012 STX fine!

That looks great, I like the older style vs. the newer Plastic folding one!
