We’re excited to share that Low Tech Garage just released a detailed video showing how to modify an OBS Ford truck to install our latest Stealth flush-fit retractable tie-down anchors.
If you own an OBS (Old Body Style) 9th Gen Ford and want stronger, cleaner, more functional tie-down points, this walk-through is exactly what you’ve been waiting for.
1987-1996 Ford F-150 / 1987-1997 Ford F-250 and F-350
Older OBS Ford trucks weren’t designed with modern retractable tie-down systems in mind. That means a simple drop-in install isn’t always possible without minor modification.
In this new video, Low Tech Garage walks through:
- How to locate and prep the stake pocket area
- What modifications are needed for proper fitment
- Tools required for a clean installation
- How to securely mount the retractable anchor
- Final fit and function once installed
The result? A flush, retractable D-ring anchor that sits clean when not in use and delivers serious holding power when you need it.
