Default Factory Cargo Hook Load Limit

I've looked through the owners manual as well as using the search function. All I've come up with are optional factory installed cargo management system, not the 4 tie downs that are located down low in the bed (black anchors located about 2 inches from the floor in all 4 corners). Long story short I might be looking at having to remove my bed and was thinking of using these anchors as lift points. I think I'll be fine, the bed can't weight more than 1000lbs and I know I've loaded the ones on my old '08 with close to that on a few occasions.

So thoughts on the weight limits of these anchors?

I am not sure about those, although they should be good for that.

Body shops use a device that just slips under the bed rails for lifting the box off.

Uhm I didn't know about that device. I'm just looking for something less intrusive and cheap to use. I figured the anchors would be sufficient since the bed doesn't weight all that much.
