Ready your truck to haul a camper with these sturdy tie-downs. Inserts slide into frame-mounted brackets for use and easily remove for a clean, unobtrusive look. Custom designed for your vehicle.Forklift tie downs are manufactured to exact fit to existing manufactured frame rail holes. They lined up perfectly and after 6000 miles with camper on board have stayed secure. The only downside, (this is relative to when and ware you use you camper) they will corrode when driving through snow covered roads that have been treated with sand and/or salt. I use an oil based product to protect them corroding.
Installation took roughly 1.5hrs, with drivers' side being more of a challenge. Couldn't have taken the 2 factory bed bolts out without an pneumatic impact wrench (and 18mm socket) and a needle nosed vice-grip was key in holding the front welded nut bar while treading the bolt into it. Also, note the driver' and passenger's are slightly different in angles (the instructions could be better to identify which is which, or at least each one marked as such). Looks good and solid! Very happy with the product design and the overall instructions. The corresponding D3109 (rear tie-downs) were very simple installation (~1hr), however the pneumatic impact was definitely needed to take out the 6 factory bolts.
Parts were good quality and fit well. Instructions weren't very good, pictures were really poor quality, instructions showed bolts to remove that didn't need to be removed, not always easy to follow.
This is the second set of Torklift camper tiedowns I have purchased from eTrailer. As always, the product is outstanding and no other camper tiedown system compares. The service and delivery time was great. eTrailer staff are very good to work with, know their products well, and are quick to respond to questions. If you are looking for camper tiedowns, spend the extra money and get Torklift brand.
I received outstanding service from Lori at etrailer.com. When I called with questions concerning which truck camper tie down to order, Lori steered me to the correct location on the etrailer webpage and then personally took my order for me over the phone. The speed and efficiency of the etrailer shipping is as good as it gets. I had my truck camper tie down kits within two days of placing the order and I live in Wyoming. I highly recommend this company to anyone wishing to purchase camper accessories online.

better than excellent!
Thanks
I love shopping for all my trailer parts at Etrailer. Between the great phone support and instructional videos, my install goes fast and easy!!!! Etrailer ROCKS!
Great tie downs! They were easy to install, and I love that it is not obvious that the truck has truck camper tie downs when the truck camper is not loaded.
Great product & very straight forward to install with common tools.
Glad I bought these from Etrailer.com - great customer service !
Tiedowns are excellent quality, I read the instructions a couple of times and watched Etrailers video and didn’t have any trouble with installation, pleased with product
Well built and precise. Pretty easy install, just esure you have a good metric socket set and a breaker bar. Air tools help for the rear install!!!!
Thank you for providing Grade 8 Hardaware!!!!!!!!! Nothing gives you a piece of mind like good mounting hardware.
The tie downs were easy to install. I do recommend the use of an impact wrench as that made the installation process straight forward and something a novice can complete in a little over an hour for front and back tie down brackets.
Very easy to install. Great instructions and pictures for the drivers side installation. Passenger side could use a picture or two, but easyafter iinstalling driver side.
on 2016 Ram 1 ton 4x4 Quad Cab Dually(6.4L gas'r w/8ft bed) drivers side upper bolts were very hard to get started due to Gas tank. Good directions!
30 min per to install. Clear instructions, all the hardware, no drill application, what more can you ask for!
FIT JUST LIKE IT SHOULD AND LOOKS GREAT. I INSTALLED MYSELF AND HAD NO PROBLEM. SHIPPING WAS FAST AND PRICE SEEMS RIGHT. THANKS.
Installation was straight forward and is easy to use. Great!
Great product, great company to shop wi th.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Perfect fit. Very strong and secure. The leaf spring bolt on my 2017 F350 could only be loosened by a local diesel mechanic. The Ford dealership and corporate repair shops wouldn’t loosen it for me due to their liability concerns. The bolts that you need to feed through with the wire leads are a bit tricky. Be sure you have something like vise grips to clam onto the bolt once it is in place before you remove the wire. You don’t want it to drop back down into the frame. You also need to hold onto the end of the bolt while you hand tighten the nut until the star washer can bite enough to keep it from spinning. Then you can crank it down with your ratchet. All in all, the instructions were very good and complete. I was able to do the installation myself with just the one trip to get the passenger side leaf spring bolt started. I look forward to many years of camping with my unit securely tied down to my truck. Thanks!

4 stars, just cause of the written instructions. Could be clearer.
Product Review: F2016, 2012 Ford F250 extended cab 8' bed
I really like the Torklift front tiedowns. I didn't feel I had the skill to fab the front tiedowns. The rear however, are rather simple. 2 1/2" 1/4" wall square pipe slips inside the factory hitch receiver. I used 27" lengths. The factory Ford hitch receiver curves towards the rear axle. Drilled and tapped thru receiver and pipe to hold it. Happy with the quick service from etrailer.com!
