These tie-downs bolt directly to the truck’s frame, keeping your camper secure and stable mile after mile. Because the frame is the solid foundation of the vehicle, the camper’s weight distributes evenly and sits lower for better balance. That means less sway in strong crosswinds and more confident handling on long-distance hauls.
The brackets use pre-existing holes in the frame, so there’s little to no drilling and no cutting needed. Each piece mounts tight to the frame with minimal loss of ground clearance, giving you a solid connection without changing the look or strength of your truck. Once installed, the system fits clean and neat underneath.
When you’re not hauling a camper, the arms slide out easily, leaving only low-profile brackets tucked under the frame. With the arms removed, the setup is practically invisible, so you keep the clean look of your truck without loose hardware hanging down.
The tie-downs use rustproof aluminum arms and stainless steel receiver brackets with a high-impact powder coat finish for extra protection. This combination stands up to rough weather, road salt, and years of travel without weakening or corroding, so you can count on them every trip.
Each tie-down arm has two pin holes so you can extend it as needed to clear fenders or sidewalls. The dual anchor holes give you flexibility to line up your turnbuckles at the best angle for your camper. Once tightened, the setup holds firm and keeps the camper from shifting under load.

Hi there I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a quick look at these Torklift Talon custom rear camper tie downs. Now these rear tie downs are going to provide the attachment points at the rear of your truck bed so you can secure your truck camper's turnbuckles. These are just gonna be the two rear tie downs. The front tie downs are sold separately but you will need all four so that you can have your camper tied down at all four corners. These are going to be a custom fit.
They're designed to work with the 1999 through 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty. On both of those with either the six and three quarter foot bed or the eight foot bed. These will also work with the 2008 through 2016 Ford F-450 Super Duty with the eight foot bed. Now, with all those models, it is going to be important that you do have a factory installed hitch. And you do not have a board or step underneath your truck bed.
The reason for that is going to be because of fit alignment and all those sort of things. Make sure everything's going to be able to be installed properly. And this system is actually going to install into your factory hitch, so that's why it's important that you do have one. So, this portion will slide into the side of your hitch. And then you'll tighten down with the bracket here so that you have a nice, solid connection.
And by attaching to your hitch right there next to your truck's frame, obviously the hitch is attached to the frame. That's going to allow this to sit up tight to your truck's frame so you're gonna have plenty of ground clearance still. And it is going to ensure excellent handling for you when you are traveling with your camper, by securing the camper to the trucks base, instead of to the bed. It is going to better distribute the weight of the camper to help keep your setup from being too top heavy. So, this is gonna be a really nice system here.
They do include instructions to walk you through that process, but it is very simple. Just sliding them into the sides of your hitch and then getting them tightened down. One of the really nice things about this system, is that when you're not towing your camper, when you're not taking your camper out, you can remove these attachment points. And this system, this portion is going to stay attached to your truck's frame. You can put a cap over the end here to keep dirt and moisture out. But overall, you're really not gonna be able to notice these sitting there. So unlike with some of your other systems that have kind of a tab that sits between your truck bed and cab, it kind of takes away from the look of your truck. This system is going to be virtually undetectable. So it's going to give you that same factory look. But then when you're ready to put your camper in, just remove that cap, slide your insert in here. And you can see we do have a couple of different holes here. So that will determine the width of our setup. So if you have a wider camper, you can use the first one here to make that longer. Or if you've got a more narrow camper, you can use that second one there. We'll just get that hole lined up and then we'll pass the pin through. Very easy to do, to get that set up, like so. And having that removable arm is going to make it very convenient when we're not taking our camper along with us, we can very easily just remove that pin, slide that out and store this away. This is constructed of an aluminum alloy. So it is going to be very lightweight. It's very corrosion resistant. Holds up really well for us. This whole system does have a high impact, powder coat finish. So it's gonna help resist rust and corrosion, that sort of thing. Which is obviously gonna be very important as it's down there on the body of your truck where it's gonna get exposed to all sorts of road conditions, salt, all sorts of things. So it is gonna hold up well for us, like I said, it is gonna be virtually undetectable. Once you pull that arm out, store it away, you really won't be able to see this at all. But then it is going to give you that solid connection when you're hooked up so that you can get your turnbuckles attached, and your camper securely connected to your truck. The system is made here in the USA, so you can trust. It's made to the high quality standards that we've come to know and trust for products that are made here in the US. And it also comes with a lifetime warranty. So if you we're to have any problems with it you're more than welcome to reach out to us here etrailer.com. But I really don't think you're gonna have any issues. A lot of our customers that have used this have been very happy with it. So I think this is gonna be a really great way of making sure that your camper is firmly attached to your truck. But like I said, this is just gonna be the rear two tie downs. You will need those front two as well, so be sure to check those out. And that completes our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

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?

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.

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.

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 !
