Get the safest and most comfortable ride while hauling your camper with tie-downs that mount on the frame of your pickup. With the arms removed, the brackets are barely noticeable. Made of stainless steel and lightweight, rustproof aluminum.
Features:
Heavy-duty strength in a lightweight package: the TorkLift Talon tie-downs are the premium choice for heavy truck campers and unforgiving climates. Made of military-grade aluminum alloy, the removable arms are rustproof and robust while also being lightweight and easy to handle. The receiver brackets are constructed of rugged stainless steel, and both components are protected by a high-impact powder coat finish that guards against wear and tear.
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 is going to 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 to the underside of the vehicle. Remove the arms from the brackets when you're not using them 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.

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at these TorkLift Talon Aluminum Rear Custom Frame Mounted Camper Tie Downs. Now these tie downs have been designed to fit your 2019 to current Ram 2500 and 3500. Now on your screen, I'm including every listing of those 2500 and 3500 from Ram, just so you have a clear idea as to which particular versions of those Rams this kit's gonna work with. It is a good idea and I highly encourage you to go through our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer, pop into year, make, and model of your vehicle, and then answer any other questions that it has for you. And our fit guide will confirm if this kit will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you.
Also, if you're looking for the front custom frame mounted camper tie downs for your Ram 2500 or 3500, the fit guide will point you in the right direction as well. But this rear camper tie down system is going to give you secure attachment points for fastening your truck camper directly to your truck's frame, which is going to make a much stronger and more stable connection than mounting to your truck bed alone. By securing the camper to the frame, weight is going to be distributed more evenly, helping improve handling and reducing camper movement while you're driving. Now again, this system is going to work together with compatible front tie downs does, and it does require turn buckles, which are sold separately from this kit, but you can find 'em here at etrailer. Those turn buckles are gonna connect your camper to the tie down points, and these rear tie down arms can be adjusted and extended outward to clear your truck sidewalls, fenders, or other body contours that's going to allow you to achieve the best angle for a secure hold.
Multiple anchor hole positions are gonna give you additional flexibility and when setting up your camper and when this is installed, the tie-down brackets are gonna remain tucked beneath the truck and are designed to be virtually invisible. If you remove these detachable arms, you're gonna barely notice that the system is there and the arms are held in place by the included safety pin and clip here. And the brackets themselves, they're gonna mount tightly against the frame of your truck helping to preserve ground clearance. These caps are going to go on the receiver brackets to when you have the arms out when these are not in use to protect the inside of the receiver bracket. So you're not gonna have to worry about junk getting in there and building up and causing corrosion issues.
So these arms are gonna be easily removable and for long term durability, these tie down arms are made from lightweight rustproof aluminum, while the receiver brackets are constructed from stainless steel, a high impact powder coat finish adds an extra layer of corrosion resistance, making them well suited for harsh weather and road conditions. Installation is gonna be pretty straightforward because the brackets, again, use those existing mounting holes and your truck's frame. You get the hardware here for bolts, so it's really gonna be a straightforward installation. Instructions are included to guide you through that. If you want help with installation though, if you don't really wanna deal with it, we've got you covered on that front, on this product page, typically underneath the photo section, we have a link that will take you to our installer locator.
Click that link, answer the questions that it has for you, and our locator will find an installer in your area that etrailer has partnered with to do the install for you. Well, again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.
