Default Boxlink cleat substitute

Is there anything else made that will attach to the Boxlink bed interface plates besides the cleats. I'm just looking for options before I buy some.

E-track stuff will attach to the cleats... and there's a wide variety of it out there.

I didn't realize it but this is the same track and tie downs I put in my cargo trailer 20 years ago.

Found it! I'm looking to attach 7/8 uni-srut rails to hold tie downs, etc. Also a LOT cheaper than the cleats.

You can also attach the mega-expensive Ford ramps, but they're not worth it IMO. I just installed the supplied cleats permanently. Better there than laying around inside the cab.

Great idea for something adjustable. There is a lot made for the etrack. I have been meaning to see if I can add a couple of single etrack females to either side of my tailgate so I can leave the tailgate down, and tie long lumber down to the tailgate.

I use the trailer hitch for that. Either chain hookup-around the lumber behind the bed-chain hookup, or chain hookup-around the tailgate-over the lumber-around the tailgate-chain hookup.
