I just put in a set of the Putco Chrome Tie Down Anchors. The kind that are hidden and can spring up and down.
Thoughts:
1. The look great and are heavy duty.
2. It seems like the want to slip out of the stake pocket, almost like I cant get them tight enough to stay in. When I put the bikes in (3 bikes) when we arrived at the mountains the anchors had moved up about 1/4". So I tightened them down before the trip home, but the same thing happened.
Anyone else run these tie down anchors? Any thoughts suggestions on keeping them from slipping?
