These tie-downs bolt directly to the truck’s frame, giving your camper a solid anchor point that keeps it from shifting or swaying. Because the weight is distributed evenly across the frame, your setup feels stable and handles smoothly, even on long drives or in crosswinds. With the camper’s center of gravity lowered, you avoid that top-heavy feel that can make the rig harder to control.
The brackets attach using pre-existing holes in the frame, so there’s little to no drilling and no need for extra modifications. Each set is custom-fit for a clean, tight mount that maintains ground clearance. That means you get a strong connection without cutting into your truck or compromising its structure.
The arms are made from rustproof aluminum and the receiver brackets from stainless steel, then finished with a high-impact powder coat. This combination gives you gear that stands up to road salt, rain, and years of hauling without corroding or weakening. The materials also keep the system lightweight while still tough enough for heavy use.
When the camper’s off the truck, you can pull the arms out of the receiver brackets so only a small portion remains visible underneath. The brackets sit nearly flush with the frame, preserving your truck’s clean look and keeping everything tucked out of sight until you’re ready to haul again.
Each arm has two pin holes so you can extend it as needed to clear sidewalls or fenders and line up your turnbuckles (sold separately). Two holes on the attachment plate let you fine-tune your anchor angles for the best hold, reducing movement and keeping your camper locked in tight from multiple directions.

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at these TorkLift Talon Tie-Downs. These tie-downs are gonna be a great option for those of you who are wanting to take your truck bed camper and make sure that it's gonna be nice and secure on your truck. So these will attach directly to the frame of your truck. So that is gonna be a lot more secure than trying to tie it down to the side rails of your truck bed. Attaching it to the frame helps to better distribute the weight, so that it's gonna be very secure for you.
Now, this is just the front tube bracket. So it's gonna be either side at the front of your truck bed. You will need the rear brackets as well. Now you can find those sold separately here at etrailer.com using that part number that you see on the screen there. So you will need all four brackets.
But this system is really nice. It's a custom fit for your 2020 and newer, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500. With the 3500 there you are gonna be limited to the single rear wheels instead of a dually. But this will work for both the Silverado and Sierra 2500 and 3500 with the six and three-quarter-foot bed. You will need to have either the Factory Hitch or the TorkLift Superhitch Magnum 30,000K Hitch, to ensure that it, everything is gonna fit properly.
If you have a different hitch, it might be using some of the holes that your tie-down system needs. So if you have either one of those kinds of hitches, this system will work great for you. This does feature these durable stainless steel receiver brackets that mount directly to the frame. So these are gonna be very durable and strong for you, give you that solid connection right there at your truck's frame, so that you know everything is gonna be very secure and sturdy. These brackets do fit right up against the frame.
So it's gonna be very snug. You're not gonna lose any ground clearance. It's not gonna hang down. So it will be a really great option for you. Then our tie-down inserts are a rustproof, aluminum. So they're gonna be very lightweight and easy to deal with. These secure to the receiver brackets. And you can see we've got two different holes here to determine the width or how far out they're gonna stick. So depending on how far out your camper sits, from the side, you can have this set out to right about 24 and a quarter of an inch out from your truck's frame. Or we can narrow that in to about 20 and a quarter of an inch. So just depending on how wide your camper is we'll determine which one you'll use there, but it's very simple to then just reinstall that pin, get that clipped in place. That's gonna give you a nice solid place to hook your tie-downs up to. Now, our brackets are a stainless steel, as I said, and our inserts are an aluminum construction. So they're gonna be rust and corrosion resistant anyway. But then we also have this powder coat finish on here that's going to add an extra layer of protection, make sure that it's gonna last for us for a long time to come. They do include all the hardware that you're gonna need to get this installed and instructions to walk you through every step of the way so that you can get everything installed properly. Very simple to do. Because these are custom brackets, you're not gonna have to do any drilling or welding. It's gonna be very simple to get it installed. And they do also include these caps. So when you remove the aluminum arms, these caps will fit over the, receiver brackets. That's going to help prevent any dirt prevent any dirt or debris from getting in there. And that's one of the really nice things about this system is that those aluminum tie-down brackets are removable. So you can just store these in the back of your truck or something. And these portions that are going to be permanently mounted to your truck bed are gonna be very inconspicuous. So you're really not gonna see them. They're gonna be kind of hidden up under your truck. So it's not gonna take away from the look of your vehicle, really not gonna notice 'em all at all. So unlike some of your other tie-down options where there's a very visible bracket mounted in place, this is gonna be very inconspicuous and it's going to look really nice on your vehicle when you're not using it. So, really great option here for those of you who are looking to maybe start camping with your truck bed camper, or maybe you're looking for an upgrade, or maybe you just got a new truck. This is gonna be a really great system. In my mind, this is probably the best option. We do have other options available here at etrailer.com. But, I really like the aluminum. I think that's gonna give you, just the flexibility, the lightweightness and, the corrosion resistance of that aluminum construction, but then also being able to remove those arms, gives you that clean finish when you're not using your camper so, I think this is gonna be a really nice system for you. It 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 lifetime warranty. So if you we're to ever have any problems with it, you're more than welcome to reach out to us. We're always happy to work with our customers, make sure that you're getting a good quality product and having a good experience with us. So, that's gonna complete our look for today. Again, I hope this has been a helpful video for you in determining if this is gonna be the right fit for you with your truck. We do have another option that's for the eight-foot, or eight-foot long beds. So check that out here at etrailer.com if that's gonna fit better for you. But overall, like I said, really great option. I think it'll make you very happy when you're trying to go out for the weekend with your truck bed camper. So that's gonna complete our look for today. And 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 !
