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.
The TorkLift frame mounted tiedowns for my truck bed camper mounted perfectly on my 2016 RAM 3500. They are holding my camper on very securely and will be tucked away nicely when I remove the camper for Winter. I plan on making a footstep to slide into the receivers then, so I have much easier access to my high truck bed when I use it to haul firewood. The only suggestion I have is that we cleaned up the punched out pin hole edges with a file, inside the receivers. The sharp ridges would have scratched the hold down assemblies a bit when inserted into the receivers. Maybe an opportunity for a manufacturing process improvement there?
Easy to install and super secure! Made my Lance 1020 feel like its part of my truck. Highly recommended for the juggernaut class truck campers. I’ll never go back to the stake pocket style or bed mount tie downs again.
The 2008 Dodge 2500 longbed install is very easy for the rear mounts.
The front is harder because of the blind frame holes but e trailer thought of everything. Your setup works great. Thank you
Easy install, very effective way to keep the camper were it's supposed to be. Just bought a new truck and ordered another set for it. As long as I have a bed mounted camper I will be using this tie down system.
This products is well made. The transaction was easy and the product arrived as expected. I've been using this product for a year and I have no complaints. It has held up well and does what it was designed to do.
On my 2017 Ram 2500 HD, were easier to install than the front ones because you don't have to put that bolt inside the frame. There is a standoff for a wire on each side that had to be removed, and will need to be secured with a cable tie or something (see attached picture). I had to remove my Trekstep from the driver's side, but I knew I would have to do that, so no big deal. Again, these are very sturdy, thus very heavy, and lighter aluminum tie downs might be considered to reduce weight.
Seem like a solid well built product. A bit of a pain to install and the instructions could have been more clear and the manual put together better but overall satisfied.
The rear mount arrived this morning, and I immediately went to installation,,,the only thing that could have made things easier would be, if I had a more powerful air wrench to take the bolts out,,,lol.
Looks great! The quality of your product is impressive! And, to think the dealer wanted to charge me $200 to put them on.
I see these as a permanent attachments to my truck,
Great tiedowns, easy to install. Both slide in section of the tiedowns had areas where either the shipping caused issues or they had been used, not sure. Some of the powder coat areas were scratched up to bare metal. Other than that, they are nice and out of the way when not being used.
TorkLift frame mounted tie downs, Torklift Fast Gun tie downs - AWESOME! Arrived Thursday as promised, picked the new Cirrus camper this morning. Installed the frame mounted tie downs - front and back - 1hour 45 minutes. Thank you etrailer!
Install was quick and painless. Everything went together better than expected.
These camper tie downs have been fantastic! They were easy to install and have made securing my camper a breeze. I really like how easy it is to pull the tie down portion of the brackets out when you aren't carrying the camper. In my opinion this is the only way to secure a truck camper.
I am really happy with tork lift rear tie downs on my 2004 3509 Dodge Ram dually. They have worked out good for me. I did have to move my rear camper tie downs so the tie down rods would clear the fenders but overall I am very happy with the tie downs.
These camper tie downs are quality made. Very easy to install. Install time was under two hours. Shipping was fast as always.
These are very well made. They installed easily and fit perfectly. My only concern is that the tie down/turnbuckle attachment hole is slotted and looks potentially weak as a result. I don't know that it's weak, it just looks like making it without the slot would be a lot stronger.
Works perfectly for what they are meant for.
Fast shipping
Heavy duty brackets
Very well made
Installed very easily. Brackets seem very strong. Excited to put them to work.
Easy install and out of the way when not in use. Very strong.
Easy instal works great with our Ram 3500. Paired with torklift fastguns makes attaching camper quick and easy, and secure.
I did have to work on a couple of holes with a file to enlarge them just a little so the factory bolts off the bumper bracket would fit through them, but aside from that this is a simple bolt on tie down which requires no drilling at all.
I called etrailer about these tie downs because our RAM is a 2018 model and there is currently no listing for TorkLift tie-downs for 2018 RAM trucks, either on eTrailer or on the TorkLift site.
eTrailer contacted TorklLift to ask if they are warranted to fit 2018 RAM trucks, but they were unable to confirm that.
Having just installed these on our 2018, I can now confirm it that they do indeed fit. There have been no dimensional changes to the 2018 models which affect the location these tie-downs are designed to fit, so they install just fine.
Straight bolt up application with no drilling required. You will need a decently long wrench, or a cheater bar of some kind, to undo the factory bolts on bumper brackets, 'cos those rascals are pretty big and pretty tight, but aside from that, it's a piece of cake.
This is the way to go for tying down a camper of any real size and weight. Those "button" anchor points that install in the bumper itself are no match for the strength and overall sturdiness of these TorkLifts. Heavy gauge steel throughout.
The rear brackets for my pickup camper tie downs fit perfect and were simple to install. They have an excellent style for superb strength on the frame of the truck. I mounted them on a 2017 Dodge Ram dually mega cab. etrailer was excellent to work with.
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.
