Integral Truck Bulkhead Rail - Ford Super Duty (2017+)

The Integral Bulkhead Rail for Ford Super Duty (2017 and newer) is a modular, bolt-in rail system designed to mount directly to your truck’s cab wall and bed tie-down anchor points. This rail transforms previously unused bulkhead space into a robust foundation for mounting Packout panels, gear trays, tool mounts, and tie-down fittings—all without permanent modifications or drilling. 

Once installed, the rail allows you to affix Packout mounting plates, sliding tie-down cleats, track nuts, and other accessories, turning the space directly behind your cab into a flexible storage zone or mobile tool wall. 

Design Features & Durability

Use Cases — Overland + Jobsite

Overlanding & Adventure Builds

• Mount Packout boxes loaded with recovery tools, cooking gear, spare parts, or camp supplies behind your cab—freeing up the bed floor for fuel, spare tires, bikes, or cargo.
• Create a “camp gear wall” where daily-use items are securely mounted and quickly accessible—minimizing gear shifts and simplifying setups when stopped.
• The bolt-on design allows you to leave the system installed during long trips or remove it when returning to a stock truck setup.

Contractors, Trades & Mobile Tool Applications

• Transform unused bulkhead space into a functional tool station by mounting Packout panels, boxes, or trays at chest-level behind your cab—making tools easy to access when parked or working at job sites.
• Keeps tools and gear stable during transport, reducing the risk of shifting or damage. Mounted Packout units stay in place, making load management and jobsite setup more efficient.
• The rail system provides anchor points for tie-downs, cleats, and cargo mounts—helpful for securing ladders, materials, or tools when driving or hauling.
• Since no drilling is required, this system preserves truck structure and resale flexibility—especially useful for lease rigs or jobs that may restrict permanent modifications.

Installation Overview

1. Confirm your truck is a 2017 or newer Ford Super Duty (F-250, F-350, F-450). 
2. Mount the rail to factory bulkhead anchor or tie-down points using the supplied hardware and replacement tie-down anchors if needed—no drilling required. 
3. Position and lock the Slide-N-Lock cleat, or add additional accessories using track nuts or Packout mounting plates. 
4. After mounting, install Packout panels, trays, or storage boxes and verify clearance and functionality—especially if using tonneau covers or bed liners.
5. Re-check mounting hardware after driving on rough roads, off-road, or trail conditions to ensure stability and security.

Final Thoughts

The Integral Bulkhead Rail for Ford Super Duty is an economical, modular way to turn previously underutilized cab wall space into a gear-ready mounting zone—ideal for both overland adventurers and tradespeople who rely on Packout systems or mobile tool setups. Its simple bolt-on installation, modular accessory compatibility, and reversible setup make it a flexible upgrade for anyone wanting to add storage, tool access, or gear mounting behind the cab, without altering the truck’s original bed structure.

Note: Packout panels, mounting plates, track nuts, and Packout gear are sold separately.
