My 2020 ranger oly came with 4 anchor points. Does any company make sidewall anchor rings for the Ranger?

I personally don't know, maybe the 12 degrees north place that advertises here? He has all sorts of cool stuff.

We will try our best to help where we can! I guess I should buy one too now :)

I've been happy with these:

Bullring tiedowns

They go in the stake pockets, 1000lbs limit, comes as a set of 2
(I used 2 sets)
Check the model numbers, I have the plain black ones. There are some flush mounts too.

Although there are stake pocket options and creative DIY options of course, we can contribute to the DIY options.

Cargo Rail might be another answer. Limitations to the the steak bed hole options is your in a fixed position, which for some may be just fine. but the thing I look at personally is the ability too be able to mount these rails horizontally on the bed or under the bed rail so if you do have the use of a tonneau cover, now your mounting solutions are under the rails and can still be more than functional tying things off.

We sell bed drawer systems and cargo slides too and a lot of times people will mount these to the tops of them or one on front, and then one down each side. They would be the closest to what comes in some trim levels of both the Toyota Tacoma/Tundra and the Nissan Frontier/Titans..

Another added feature is with the steak pockets, you would also be limited to 4 [fixed] points, ideally you could add additional sliding rings and multiple custom mounting options would be available for your needs.

*Whispers technically those would fall under our rack accessories and you could save a few dollars too until Midnight Monday and we're likely 3hrs behind you here in Vegas.

Let us know how we can get you set up!

BL,

A little late but how did you make out with this ?

When I was going to add to additional Tie Downs in the Bed I got a set of OEM Ford Ranger Tie Downs (the heavy wire ones - year ?) and was going to mount a third set in the middle of the others. I got the parts together but never drilled the hole, I did plan a reenforcing plate to go between the outer bed wall and the washers and Grade 8 Crimped Nuts.

As was stated, drilling the holes is the hardest parts.

Post what you have done !

While you are at it add some Bed Lights too, LoL, always something !

Since our response, we have received a new, smaller version of the aforementioned cargo rail. The larger unit is great for creating a horizontally placed rail system on both the X and Y axis, or even on a Y axis at 90* rail system, much like whats found in the Nissan Frontier SVE or PRO4x, or what you can find in the SR5+ Toyota Tacoma pkg's.

A more recent smaller version would still give you a 140mm (5.50"in) of adjustment but a far smaller scale of mounting surface area for additional creative DIY ideas is now available. More information can be found here -- 140mm Cargo Rail

Figured we would add to the conversation just in case a future reader thought it to be useful information.
