Features to know about

Stable Handling on Long Trips: Frame-Mounted Tie-Downs

These tie-downs mount directly to your truck’s frame, giving your camper a stable, low-centered ride that feels steady even on long hauls. Because the camper’s weight is distributed evenly across the frame, you avoid that top-heavy sway that can make driving uncomfortable in crosswinds or over uneven roads. The result is a safer, more controlled trip with your camper riding as solidly as if it were built into the truck.

Install Without Drilling: Custom-Fit Mounts

The setup uses pre-existing holes in the frame so there’s little to no drilling needed. Each bracket bolts up tight for a secure fit that keeps your truck’s structure intact and your ground clearance nearly unchanged. The custom design makes installation straightforward, so you can get the tie-downs mounted and go without cutting or modifications.

Keep It Clean When Not in Use: Removable Arms

When you’re not hauling your camper, just remove the tie-down arms and you’ll hardly notice the brackets underneath. They sit tucked close to the frame, staying out of sight and keeping your truck looking clean. It’s an easy way to have a strong mount when you need it without changing how your truck looks when you don’t.

Built to Last: Steel with High-Impact Powder Coat Finish

Durability matters when your gear faces weather, dirt, and road wear day after day. These tie-downs are made of steel and finished with a high-impact powder coat that adds extra protection against chips and corrosion. That means they hold up through years of travel without weakening or rusting out on you.

Secure Fit for Any Camper Setup: Adjustable Anchor Points

Each tie-down arm includes two pin holes and multiple anchor options so you can fine-tune how it connects to your turnbuckles. This gives you clearance for fenders or sidewalls and lets you adjust tension for a snug fit that keeps your camper solidly in place from multiple angles.

Video Transcript for What to Know About the TorkLift Tie Downs-TL25NR

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. And today we're going to take a look at these forklift talent custom frame mounted aluminum front camper tie downs. These tie downs provide attachment points at the front of your truck bed for securing a bed mounted camper. Now these are going to fit various versions of the 1999 to 2010 Ford F250, F350, and F450 Super Duty. To confirm that these are going to fit your truck, take advantage of our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com and input the year, make, and model of your truck and our website, our fit guide at our website, will let you know if these tie downs will work for your truck, or if we have something comparable that will work for you.

Now, the frame mounted design ensures excellent handling because securing your camper to your truck's base, instead of its bed, better distributes the weight to keep your setup from being too top heavy. The brackets fit tight to your truck's frame. So there's not going to be any loss of ground clearance and the rust-proof and lightweight aluminum alloy tie downs are going to insert to these durable stainless steel receiver brackets. Now these inserts can be easily removed from these frame mounted brackets. I'm just going to go ahead and remove one of the bale pins here.

And as you can see, the insert slides right out. And again, being aluminum, it's very lightweight but very rugged, as well. So this is going to be very easy to take the inserts and maybe throw them in the rear of your truck cab and they can be there and ready to use when you next need them. But they're not going to be any trouble whatsoever to remove these. I do want to point out that this does come with vinyl caps that are included to cover the front of the receivers to keep out dirt and grime.

And also foam plugs that insert into the rear of the brackets to keep out dirt and grime, as well. So as you can see, you can remove the insert, put the cap on. It's going to keep the inside of that receiver clean. And these tie downs are going to be virtually undetectable when they are not in use. Now I do want to point out on the inserts, there are two different holes.

And if your camper is a little bit wider, you can just use this first hole on the insert to have the tie down stick out a little bit farther. If your camper is a little bit narrower, you can move it into this second hole. And that's what I'm going to do here, is just slide that all the way into the second hole, line up the holes here, run that bale pin through, and that is going to secure it in place. These bale pins, as I mentioned, are going to secure these inserts into the brackets, giving you a nice secure connection point for your turn buckles. The high impact powder-coated finish is going to add an extra layer of protection to the brackets and the inserts. And you're going to get everything that you see here on the table before me. You're going to get two front tie down inserts, the frame brackets, the necessary hardware for installation, along with instructions to guide you through step-by-step on the installation process. Now, again, these are front camper tie downs. The rear ones are sold separately. But if you are in need of the rear ones, as well, just go through our fit guide here at etrailer.com to find the ones that will fit your truck. These are made in the USA and they do have a lifetime warranty. Well, that's going to conclude our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me..

After selling previous truck camper and getting a new truck these tie downs are outstanding. The direct fit for year make model is awesome. Takes the guess work out installation. The install instructions were really good as well as etrailers videos. etrailer is the great providing product install walk thru. The adjustability of these tie downs made my life easier when I picked up my new TLRV 8 foot truck camper.

A year later, no issues with tie downs, except normal wear and tear and metal to metal wearrust progression. These tiedowns are designed great and fit function was clearly created by someone who knows not only design but install ! E-trailer is “the” place to buy rv, camper, towing etc products - the install videos are sooooo helpful ! Thx ET !

It definitely is safe the way you have them, Paul! In a perfect world, the turn buckles would be perfect vertical, but this an imperfect world and not all campers have the attachment points in the same place. If you take a look at some of the installed pictures on the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles # TLS9529-2-LK page, you can see most of them are at an angle. It's perfectly normal. Are you running any suspension enhancement on your Silverado?

I ordered this kit for my 2018 Ford F150 'Heavy Half' regular cab, long bed pickup. The tie downs came with all the necessary hardware, good instructions, were easy to install with basic tools, and required no drilling. Shipping was very fast. I would absolutely recommend TorkLift tie downs and etrailer.com.

I have not had any issues at all with the tie downs.

They seem stout and were easy enough to install. I added my own 2” square rubber caps to the ends to keep road debris out when they’re not in use, those should be included. For $850 the packaging could use some work. They arrived all banged up, the “high impact powder coat” is worn off in several areas leaving bare steel exposed.

Looks great! What kind of camper do you have?

by:
2006 Ford F-250 Super Duty
I did a lot of research to find the right kind of frame mounts for my dads truck. Lots of local RV places didn't even know what I was looking for, or quoted me for the wrong parts. After I was certain I found the right tie downs, I contacted etrailer customer service chat representative and they were a great help at confirming the parts I found would in fact fit my dads truck. My husband and dad installed them in less than 2 hours. The parts came quickly and in excellent packaging/condition.

Install looks great, Megan! Especially for it only taking two hours! They were moving. : ) Happy we confirmed what you found as well. Tie downs can be a pain in the rear with all the options out there. Now I do have to ask though, have you guys thought about any kind of suspension enhancement for the rear axle? It's a little hard to tell, but it looks like the back is sagging a bit in your last picture.

@LazerS Thanks for the reply! The truck is currently stock, but we are getting airbags and new shocks placed on the truck tomorrow. We were told by our local 4 wheel parts the airbags will help lessen the load on the back of the truck with the weight of the camper. Hopefully they gave us the correct information. If you have other suggestions, I am open to hearing them! Thanks!

@Megan Air bags are what I was going to recommend! Great minds think alike. : ) With them being fully adjustable, they are definitely the way to go. They can change the unloaded ride a little, but not nearly as much as some other ways of doing it that are not adjustable. Sounds like you guys are doing everything right to me. Let me know how it goes!

Absolutely the only way to correctly attach your truck camper. Pair these white Fastguns and it’s a great combo. I just went on a 5000 mile trip with my TC and never moved an inch.

A year later and I would not do anything different. Absolutely the best system available especially paired with the fast guns. The camper is solid mounted and does not move. Yet can still be off loaded in just a few minutes. Remember good stuff isn’t cheap and cheap stuff isn’t good.

@Clay Happy to hear the # TL86NR are working well and keeping your setup solid. Paired with the fast gun turnbuckles is about as good as it gets. What type of in bed camper do you have?
by:
1996 Ford F-250 and F-350
Really disappointed for the cost. First of all it says several times in the description that it requires no drilling. That’s not the case at all. I had to drill 12 holes in my truck frame. The bolts included for the top mounting bracket were the incorrect length so I had to purchase longer grade eight bolts to install as suggested by the manufacturer with a lock washer and nut. The cheaped out on spacers (like shown in the directions) and included huge washers and to top it off the slide in mounts were all scraped up and have peeling powder coating. I feel like I got absolutely ripped off.

We appreciate the kind words Charles! Where did you take the in-bed camper for the first trip?

by:
2011 Chevrolet Silverado
We had a hiccup with my order and it was lost in cyberspace for a day until I called and was able to get it going. Unfortunately, I needed them by Saturday and I ordered them Wednesday. They didn't ship until Thursday afternoon and didn't arrive until Monday. The seller of the camper was kind enough to hold the camper for me, but it was touch and go there for a while.
Installing them was a challenging because the pictures in the guide were difficult to see which slowed the installation down a little. It took 2 of us about 3 hours to install them. Now that they are on the truck with the camper they seem to be working great! The only problem remaining is the front tie downs use a bolt to hold the tie down to the frame and it obstructs the passage, so it will only advance as far as the first pin making the second hole unreachable (it sticks out from the truck a few extra inches and makes the extension wobble up and down until the turnbuckle was installed).
by:
2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty
Not a good experience so far. Torklift product was defective and they sent the wrong size bolt fish wires. Took 3x as long to install as should have due to wrong size fish wires. Torklift is not very responsive on the solution to the defective part. Torklift did not drill one of the holes in the tie downs
by:
Ordered for 2025 GMC 3500HD to carry our Arctic Fox slide in camper. Kits were shipped right away and arrived in Anchorage in 5 days (as ordered). The tie downs are excellent quality, all hardware arrived with the kit, instructions were "OK", installation on rear tie downs a little tricky, but managed to do ourselves. Looking forward to some great camping adventures. Thanks for the GREAT service!

I would say that the Torklift kit fit my 2024 GMC sierra pro crew cab perfectly the shipping to Canada took 5 days which I thought was fast delivery and it shipped the same day it was ordered
by:

The product itself is GREAT and fits PERFECTLY. I'd give 5-stars if packaged properly to ensure the paint stayed whole as it left the factory. Instead some of the metal pieces showed up dinged and now will rust prematurely. Customer service is always solid with etrailer.

Second set of Torklift camper tiedown brackets I have purchased. 1999 Dodge 2500 and 2016 Ram 3500. Fit good. No drilling. I would buy again. Good product. (I am a certified ASME, AWS, API, welder and fabricator). No hype, just fact.

Did an awesome job installing all 4. And would highly recommend to everyone who needs it done.

Relatively easy to install with instructions and perform well. Quick to remove and put on as well.

Absolutely fit like a glove on our Ram truck. Disconnecting the emg. break was a challenge only because the tension nut was rusted. Other than that install was a breeze.
