Get the safest and most comfortable ride while hauling your camper with tie-downs that mount on the frame of your pickup. Great for your truck's looks: remove the arms from the brackets and you'll hardly know that the brackets are there.
Features:
If you're looking for the best tie-downs for your camper, frame-mounted is the way to go. The frame is the most solid part of your entire vehicle, so it just makes sense to attach your camper to something that's not going to warp, bend, or twist. Even more importantly, the camper's center of gravity will sit lower and its weight will be spread across the entire bed. This avoids a top-heavy load perched on top of your bed rails that's liable to sway and get pushed around by crosswinds. The camper's not going to shift or slide around while you drive; it's going to stay put, and your truck is going to handle just like it does without a camper.
Quick Tip: If you have a plastic or spray-in bed liner, it's important that you use a rubber mat under the camper to eliminate any sliding or bouncing.
Frame-mounted tie-downs are also a great pick for preserving your truck's good looks. The brackets install on the frame, tucked nearly flush with the underside of the vehicle. Remove the arms from the brackets when you're not hauling your camper, and the brackets will be barely visible.
Completely custom to your vehicle, the tie-downs attach to exisiting holes in your frame so that there's little to no drilling and no need for any modifications. Because they're custom, you'll want to use our in-house application guide to make sure you get the exact right model. The tie-downs you need might be different depending on what type of hitch or other accessories you have.
Once the tie-downs are installed, use a set of turnbuckles (sold separately) to secure the camper to the tie-downs. The shank on each arm has 2 pin holes so you can choose how far out they extend, that way the turnbuckles can reach the anchors on your camper without making contact with your truck. Tighten the turnbuckles to the correct level of tension (not too tight!).
Make sure the anchor points are offset from the tie-downs instead of lined up with them so that they will hold your camper from multiple angles. This is important for keeping your camper from shifting. Two holes in the attachment plate of the tie-downs let you find the best angle for you camper anchors.

Another well engineered product well suited for the application and supported by knowledgeable staff at etrailer.
I just had a chance to put on quite a few miles in various conditions in these things perform flawlessly. I had some trouble with the installation as one of my frame bolts nut came loose so I had to drill another hole next to it and put a backer plant in the box but it turned out to work just fine doing that.
The TorkLift tie downs were relatively easy to install. They look great. They are designed well. It will give us peace of mind having them on our truck with our new big camper. We have not gone out camping yet to try them out, but expect good performance from them. Thanks to etrailer for helping us get them.
I am glad I called in, because I would have ordered the wrong part. Thank You Jaime B for your help. Still not 100% sure this is the right part; I will find out this weekend when I install it. But I do have confidence that it is the right part. :)
Arrived quickly and installed easy. B
These tiedowns were very simple to install on the end of the Torklift superHitch. If you're hauling a camper, they are a must have item. Very easy to remove when not hauling, and has a clean look.
TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Rear are mounted to my Torklift 20K hitch, easy to mount, worked flawlessly to hold down our camper.
Only issue is the bolts that came with the 20K hitch for the tubes are to short for the tubes and hitch you must use the extra bolts (2" grade 8) that come with the hitch.

The flange on the 20K is 6x6 3/8 thick the tube for the camper tie down mounts to the 6x6 flange
Sarah Is a FANTASTIC Sales Person !! I had to return a product and she had the new part shipped the next day so I would have it in time for our vacation. She RULES !!!!!
Everything worked perfect!!
Super fast FREE shipping! Easy installation! Much cheaper purchasing through etrailer than any trailer supply shops near my home! I’m a local business supporter but the speed of shipping and price was to good to pass up!
The right tool for the job. Thank you.
Installed front hitch in front and rear tie-downs.
Solid as a rock and easy to install
So far it's great!! It took me and my buddy about 90 minutes to take off the old hitch on my 2006 Chevy 3500 dually!!! We timed ourselves! It wasn't complicated. We used a floor jack to lift the new hitch into place. All bolt holes matched perfectly. You definitely should use two people to install this thing because if it gets away from you may need to replace some fingers. It's just a heavy piece of equipment. Installing it myself saved me about $600 over having someone else install!!
I've had these tie downs for a year now and they are still great. I'm using them on a custom installation so while I can't speak about fitment for your camper or truck; they still look great. They've been in mud and salt and still look great when hosed off. Torklift obviously does great powder coating. Mine are on an earlier truck (1981 K3500 dually) and while I modified my frame and Torklifts hitch in the truck build, the tie downs themselves are unmodified and went on super easy. I don't remove the outer post when not using the camper as they're not in the way ( maybe on a single wheel truck they would be). And I haven't heard them rattling, but mine isn't a quiet a truck. Wish Torklift made a good front mount solution too. My belly bar isn't as elegant as Torklifts mounts.
Mounted at the same time I installed TFL1002 Super Duty trailer hitch. Simple install and construction of tie downs are heavy duty. Much stronger than anything mounted to the rear bumper (happijack mounts).
Extensions slide right in and are secured with pin and clip. When removed they are barely noticeable looking at the truck from the side view.
Extremely nice. Well packaged delivered fast great communication. The parts went on the truck easier than expected and very well engineered.
Once again the direction were not helpful at all. Found a [online] video that helped the most. Passenger side install was a breeze... the drivers was not!!! It's on but due to the fuel tank and guard on my 05 Sierra 3500 being so close to the frame I was not able to reach the flange nuts with my torque wrench. Due to the lack of space between the nuts and the fuel tank I had to rely on tightening them with an open end wrench. (Not ideal) To make matters more interesting I had to place a block of wood behind the flange in order to get the flange to stay in position and get the tie down on to the flange nuts. IMO Forklift engineers should develop a front tie down that is better suited to 2001-2007 GMC 3500 trucks. And non engineers should create the directions!!! It's 2021 - creating an install videos for their products should be a given.
Phone tech support was right on with hooking me up with the proper hitch and camper tie-downs for my application. Pricey of the TorkLift hitch, camper tie downs, and 2' double extended tow bar. Upside these are quality products that are made to do the job. Thanks to all tech support for their help!
The Torklift tie downs for my 2003 Chevrolet Silverado are as advertised. A quality product. I installed them without any issues. The instructions are straight forward and provide pictures for those who need visual assistance. Very happy with these tie downs.
Great product. Was easy to install. It has
Worked great. The camper came with fast gun tie down system. I would recommend using these also
Received quickly but the box was showing signs that a struggle had taken place and the box lost. Upon opening the boxes I found that several pieces from the installation kit were missing, I called and an entire new installation kit was quickly shipped to me. Installation was easy and I have been very happy with the customer service.
These tie-down supports are sturdy. Istallation was a bit of a challenge and required holes to be drilled to bolt the upper and lower pieces together, because where they matched up there wasn't a hole. I'm not sure if this was missed or done intentionally to allow for proper alignment first. These were advertised as "no drilling required" but that was not the case. Luckly I am somewhat mechanically inclined. If not, I advise a professional does the install.
I got the wrong part they sent me ra number and got the right super hitch shipped right away. Great customer service and would do it again because the have the best products.
Torklift was recommended by several dealers and services departments not to mention the reviews on the web. So we gave it a try being new to the RV scene. Instructions were great, called Torklift customer support twice and they were right on in their instructions. Was successful in installing myself, took a couple hours, next time, way sooner. Will recommend to friends and family.
