@airbusa380 ,

EDIT: Changed my answers because I removed the nylon nuts and replaced them with steel rivnuts!

I have not done any weight test.

The one on the "A" Pillar is anchored with a bolt & welded nut in the "A" pillar.
I would have to say no to your question.

I don't / wouldn't use the OEM ones to use lifting aid like the one on the front passenger's pillar!

The one in the "A" pillar is the only one on our trucks that have a nut/screw fixture to my knowledge.
The other fixtures are rectangular holes with a metal spring type clip that is holding your overhead handles in place.

EDIT: This is as strong as one can make this fixture without having welded nuts in the overhead framework.
***I would definitely trust this as I trust the grip on the "A" Pillar.***
