These custom fit tie-downs give you the safest and most comfortable ride when hauling a camper. They mount to the frame of your pickup - no drilling required! With the arms removed, the brackets can barely be seen.
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.

Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this Torklift custom frame-mounted camper tie-down set. These tie-downs are going to provide the attachment points that you need at the front of your truck bed, so that you can secure your bed-mounted camper in place. This is just going to be the two front tie-downs, the rear tie-downs are sold separately, but you can't find them as a related product on the product page for these. These are going to be a custom fit.
They're designed specifically to fit the 2014 through 2018 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 with the 5 1/2 foot bed and the Crew Cab. Now, keep in mind, because of the way these fit, it is going to be required that your Silverado and Sierra 1500 do not have a board or step underneath the truck bed, and that you do have either a factory installed hitch or a non-Torklift aftermarket hitch because those mounting points are going to be the same with the Torklift hitch and this tie-down system. So, if you have that 2014 to 2018 Silverado or Sierra 1500, this is gonna be a great kit for you. The brackets will fit tight to your frame, so you're not gonna lose any ground clearance. And because they are a frame-mounted, it's going to give you excellent handling.
It's gonna be a lot more secure than having your camper tied down to the top of your truck bed. It's gonna be a lot less top heavy, so it's gonna better distribute the weight, keep the setup a lot more secure for you. Another huge benefit to this system is that these are going to be a removable. So, our tie-down inserts are going to be able to be removed from our frame-mounted receiver brackets. So, the receiver brackets are going to stay installed all the time, but then we can remove these tie-down inserts very easily.
And so, then you of your vehicle. So it's going to give you that nice factory sort of look, but then when you're ready to put your camper in place, just slide these in. You can see, we do have these two different notches here to determine how far they're going to stick out. So if you have a little bit wider camper, you can go to that first notch, or if your campers a little more narrow, you can go to that second opening there, and then you'll just pass your pin through. And that's going to give you that nice, secure connection for your turnbuckles to attach to so that you can have your camper securely attached to your frame.
So this does have a powder-coated steel construction, so it is going to hold up really well for you. You are going to get the two front front tie-down inserts, the frame brackets and all the hardware that you're going to need to get this installed as well as instructions to walk you through that process. And we do include pictures in there as well. So very simple way of adding a nice, secure connection for your truck bed camper. 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 does come with a limited lifetime warranty. So if you we're to have any problems with it, you're more than welcome to reach out to us here at etrailer.com. So like I said, the rear tie-downs are sold separately. You can find them on the product page for these front tie downs, but I really like the design of these. I like how these arms are removable, so you don't have that permanent tab on the back of your truck cab that kind of takes away from some of the look, but having it mounted to the frame is going to be very stable for you. So 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 !
