Description

My modification doesn't change the ‘footprint’ of the part interfacing with the truck bed.  It does make the hook a little wider but this should not interfere with the strap hooks.  The best thing about this is that if it does fail in the future, you just print another part.

Talking with my ME friends, I was told to add additional strength then use 2-3 walls but make the part solid.  This makes the layers like plywood.  I also used ABS for additional strength and heat resistance (I live in New Mexico so it can get very hot) 

If you use PLA or PETG then I would suggest using the other for support interface since PLA and PETG doesn't bind well together.

I am only including the hook half of the two parts.  You will need to download the back part from The Mapster.
