Stainless steel turnbuckles allow you to firmly secure your truck bed camper to your tie-down system. Internal springs on front turnbuckles help to reduce stress on tie-down points.
Features:
Specs:
These HappiJac turnbuckles are recommended for use with HappiJac truck bed camper tie-downs (sold separately), but they can also be used with most other tie-down systems that accept J-hook-style turnbuckles. Unlike standard chain-style turnbuckles, HappiJac turnbuckles provide more stability and better control to prevent shifting of your camper during travel.
To secure your camper in your truck bed, hook the threaded end of each turnbuckle onto an anchor point on your camper and then connect the non-threaded end to the tie-down anchor on your truck. Then simply hand-tighten each turnbuckle barrel for a secure connection.
For faster operation, you can upgrade these standard turnbuckles with the HappiJac Qwik-Load system (LC182894). The Qwik-Load handles keep you from having to hand-tighten each turnbuckle, and they allow you to quickly and easily disconnect.

Stainless steel turnbuckles allow you to firmly secure your truck bed camper to your tie-down system. Internal springs on front turnbuckles help to reduce stress on tie-down points.Installed Item #LC182910-182971 (FT-UT9 kit) on my 1992 Chevy Silverado K3500 Single-Wheels w/8' Bed. Arrived quickly with all needed parts and good installation guide. Install took leisurely 3 or 4 hours total; nothing hard to do. Mount attached below to chevy's frame "ears", the c-bolts came down directly adjacent to both frame ears for easy drilling and a solid install. Couldn't be happier to install something solid, while dumping my older ineffective stake-well mounts that were always a pain getting torqued, twisted and loose.
Great camper tie down connection device. We let our trusted mechanic install it for a flawless result. This item is just the ticket for securing the load. In our case, we connected a restored vintage '95 Elkhorn 8' camper to an airbag-equipped 2011 Toyota Tundra. Drove from AZ to northwestern Montana and lived in it for 3 weeks. Great product, guys!

Very happy with the quality of these turnbuckles, I’ve used cheaper versions and they just don’t up like these ones do.
After having a set for almost 20 years, I thought it was time (probably overdue) to replace them. The turnbuckles have always worked well for me.
I bought 4 HappiJac turnbuckles to hold my truck camper on the back of my truck. They work great. Thank you etrailer.com for recommending a good quality, resonable priced product for my needs.
Nice simple design that functions well. I just got back from Ohio with my Camper and the tie-downs functioned perfectly at or maybe slightly above all posted speed limits. No problems. I installed these with Torqlift anchors and used some chain and quick links form TSC.
It appears the front turnbuckles are going to be short. I should be able to fix it by adding a couple locking links.
These were replacements for the originals from 2001. Nice quality and should provide good service for a long time. The front turnbuckles were still good, the rear ones had the rubber bushings inside deteriorate and needed replacing.
These are perfect, easy to use and work well. What I like most is I tighten them down and the stay tight.
Overall it’s a good place to start, I had to fabricate a spacer to make the drivers side front bracket fit and the rear clamp on the brace is a little bit questionable as to weather it will hold and sufficiently brace the bumper. I may change that attach method.

They were perfect and still holding the camper on the truck
Great service
Always good service pleasure to do Business thanks !!
These appear to be made of quality steel, and are heavy-duty. They arrived rather quickly. Writing reviews before actually using the product is a fool's errand, so I'll stop now.
I put these on my F250 for when I carry my Northstar Camper and they have made an enormous difference, especially in sway. They work!
Awesome mount
Brett - 10/30/2021I’m a rancher and a picky one at that. Ordering seemed straight forward enough. The products arrived 2-4 days earlier than expected. The camper frame tie downs, 20 ton hitch, and all necessary hardware were in excellent condition and quality made products. Very nice.
They would not reach from tork frame mounts to camper tie downs. I would not have purchased if I new that.
Great service. Talk through the preset to ensure it fit my truck.
works out great!
Did the job I needed them for in securing my cabover. Easy to install and use. Had to add chain length to connect to frame so a longer ones would've been better.
