The straight ones are what they recommended for back end. The angled are for the front or middle. I don’t see an issue using them for the back. Now that I know the angle ones work, I will just keep the straight ones since they have the same weight rating. Retracted you cannot tell difference.
These look amazing. Mind sharing a link to where you purchased? Easy install?Installed Carbon Fiber raised tailgate decals.
EASY install. Took 5-10 minutes.
I got the angled and would highly recommend the angled. They sit flush just the same.
It's a great accessory on most trucks! It will become almost useless though once Ford fixes the modem issue...I created a dedicated post with photos for anyone interested in installing a battery disconnect switch:

I installed the Bullring model 4025 today as well. Had them on my previous trucks. No brainer accessory.
Well, not exactly….at least on mine. The failure of the modules to sufficiently charge my LVB from my HVB was the reason for my truck’s failure to auto-install the 22-PU1009-MIL-DTE OTA update. I had to force my truck to sufficiently charge my LVB to 94% SoC for the update to occur.
The update bug is also being fixed in February from what I heard. Ford set too high of a threshold needed on the LVB for updates to occur. That should solve that need for disconnecting.Well, not exactly….at least on mine.

I’ve seen LVB SoCs as low as 50% parked off my FCSP and in the 75-80% range while making short trips around town (I’ve made no electrical system mods). The last time I measured it took 1 1/2 hours of driving for my LVB to go from 80% to 91% SoC…where it maxed out until I forced it while L2 charging…..
….but, this is all a topic for another thread…….
For now, with most dealers, the only way to use points would be to go into the dealer to place the order. There's a couple dealers online (Fairway Ford, Ruxer are a couple I've come across) that will accept points for online orders. Starting January 30 you will be able to pay with points on the Ford Accessories website.
I bought online from my local dealer since the parts cost less online. When I went in to purchase I asked if I could use points. He said it had already hit the credit card. But he said I could call after I order next time and he could change the payment method to points. I’m not totally convinced he could or would. So worth a conversation.
How / where are you finding LBV SoC? Thanks.Well, not exactly….at least on mine.

Car Scanner App on your phone and OBDII reader, either Wifi or Bluetooth, what ever you prefer to pair with your phone. One thing to think about is if you have an iPhone and use CarPlay you can't use Wifi because CarPlay uses the wifi connection.
