I was at the dealer today to get my leaking sunroof checked out, decided I'd have the parts guys get me the info for ordering the loading ramps to use with the boxlink system. I think I'll be sticking with the aluminum ones I already have and just strapping it into the back of the truck for travel. By the time you get the two ramps, 4 brackets, and tailgate panel you're up close to $1,100 . A lot of money to load the dirt bike a few times a year. If you're considering them, add them to your order.

 

The Ford website still lists the loading ramps as late availability.

 

Yup. If you add them now, it will hold up your build.

They were/are a $489 (AZ Plan price) option if ordered with the truck, so, what $600 normally? I can't believe they're almost $1,100 thru the service department.

 

I would just spend a couple bucks at home depot for the wood and maybe splurge on the metal brackets via a loading ramp kit for $40.

 

The whole point about the Boxlink is to be able to stow them securely so nobody steals them while you're out riding AND keep them out of the way. But ... to each their own.

 

Late availability would explain why I haven't seen any on ththe dealer lots. I'll keep an eye out on eBay over ththe next couple years.
