Can the TorkLift Frame-Mounted Tie-Downs Be Transferred From a 2017 F-350 to a 2019 F-350 Dually

Question:

I have a 2017 Ford F350 single rear wheel with F2021 tie downs in front and F3008 in rear. I recently purchased a 2019 Ford F350 dually. I want to relocate the tie downs from the 2017 to the 2019. The rear tie downs should be simple as all the bolts appear exposed. However, when the F2021 are installed, you use a bolt fisher to work the bolts into the holes in the frame. Any suggestions on removing the bolts from the F2021? I ordered a new set of hardware from Torklift in case I lose a bolt or washer in the frame and cant fish it out with a magnet. Thanks

For starters, the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs part # TLF2021 only work on models with an 8' bed so if you have the 6-3/4' bed then you will need the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs part # TLF2022 instead.

In regards to removal of the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs part # TLF2021, I asked TorkLift and they mentioned that using a magnet to retrieve the old hardware is your best option.
