Stake Pocket D Rings?

The original subject was "Re: Stake Pocket D Rings?".

Bought a set of 4 and was tickled. Until I tried to use them and discovered that the stake pockets are not all the same size - about half of them are just a bit too narrow to fit the shaft of the D ring. The one I happened to do a test fit on before I bought the D rings was one of the "right" sized ones.

Now I either try to grind a bit off the shafts, or have my welder replace the undersized pockets. An leaning for the second option - no sense making things weaker.

Make sure to try fitting them 180 degrees opposite in the stake pocket. I bought some for my trailer and some of them would only fit with the open side oriented one way, and some it didnt matter. The radius on the bent U shape stake pocket has to clear to stake pocket and may not match the radius om the stake pocket.
