I will use a tension rod if I get a ride88 setup. I would not use those nutserts on the tonneau cover enclosure as tiedown or attachment points. It is unlikely they’re designed to have tension on them.It’s not speculation. That’s what I’ve tried to convey to you. I disassembled that whole panel and looked at it first hand. There is not a part of the truck bed that is not structural. Also, what you refer to as small bolts are four substantial 10mm bolts. Further evidence of the strength of the box and those top four bolts in particular is the fact that other companies are engineering products to bolt into them — BuiltRight being another example.
It makes no difference to me if you choose not install anything in your bed, but I mention this so your comments don’t dissuade others based on your personal speculation, not facts, from making the most of their trucks if they choose to.
The lower ones, which are into the bed structure itself, would be a safer bet.
