Default My F150 'Shorty' Bull Ring installation
I saw the specific Ford 5.5' bed Shorty Bull Ring's were available so I ordered up two pair & got them installed today. Very easy modification, as long as you watch the you tube videos & have the right tools. Start to finish it took me under an hour. (I work slow... Lol.)

I'll load some pics in this thread off my iPhone.

After dropping in the base, tighten up the two screws to secure the Bull Ring to the top flange of the pocket.
