Hi all, has anyone installed any extra tie down points in their tub, and if so what did you use?
I find the four factory points rather inadequate to say the least.
It would be nice to have either recessed tie downs in the floor (I have a tub liner installed as well) or even on the tub sides?
Any recommendations on a fridge slide?

Any suggestions would be great :)

There are actually points behind the wheel arch which are the same as the tie down.
But Ford for some reason don't fit any there.

I attached another tie down bracket onto the factory points behind the wheel arch as you can see in the pic.
I'm pretty sure one of these points are used to hold the factory liner in.
