How Do You Remove the Gas Tank Cover on a 2015 Ford F-350 to Install the Tie-Downs # TLF2016?

Question:

Anyone have advice on how to remove the gas tank cover on a 2015 F350 8foot bed for the F2016 tie downs? My setup looks nothing like that in the instructions and looks like I would have to remove dozens of bolts to the side cover as it seems to be riveted to the base cover? Of course the time I have to install these is after Torklift hours. Thanks!

I went ahead and reached out to Torklift, and they confirmed what you need to in order to remove the gas tank cover on your vehicle to install the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Front # TLF2016. The cover drops down and gives you access by removing the 6 fasteners from the inboard side of the cover. No rivets need to be removed from this process.
