These tie-downs bolt directly to your truck’s frame—the most solid part of the vehicle—so your camper stays stable even on long hauls or rough roads. Because the weight is spread across the frame, your setup keeps a lower center of gravity, which helps prevent sway in crosswinds and keeps your truck handling just like it does unloaded. That means a smoother, more confident drive when you’re covering serious miles.
The brackets mount using pre-existing holes in the frame, so there’s little to no drilling required. Everything fits tight to the frame with minimal loss of ground clearance. It’s a clean, bolt-on design that keeps your truck’s structure intact and makes setup simple for one person with basic tools.
When the camper’s off, just remove the tie-down arms from their brackets and they practically disappear under the truck. The mounts sit nearly flush with the underside, preserving your truck’s looks without hanging parts or cluttered hardware showing.
Built from black powder-coated steel, these tie-downs resist corrosion and hold up to weather, road grime, and salt. The tough finish helps them stay looking good and performing strong through years of travel.
Each arm includes two pin holes so you can extend it to clear sidewalls or fenders and line up your turnbuckles at the right angle. Two holes in the attachment plate let you fine-tune how your camper connects for a tight, secure hold from multiple points. This design keeps everything locked down and stable mile after mile.

Good tie downs, functioning well with no problems.
The mounts are everything they were advertised to be. Unfortunately it took etrailer a month to even ship it although they said that it was in stock.
Product itself was easy enough to install, works as designed, very happy. Shipping boxes however were not quite adequate for the job, needs improvement!
These are excellent tie downs and install easily. My only complaint is that after a year and about 6000 miles, the powder coating is chipping away and I have only been on pavement
2021 RAM 2500 w Factory long running boards. Like any other review, the parking brake cable is the only hard part to the install. Great kit.
I have used Torklift in the past and know the product quality. It was a little confusing figuring out which part number but e-trailer customer support was spot and very prompt. Always a pleasure.
Rock solid tie down. Easy to install. Would recommend to anyone looking for a truck frame camper tie down system.
I really like the way the truck and camper ride, very stable. The ability to remove the extensions when the camper is off is really a nice feature too.
The instructions were clear and easy to follow. They fit just as described and took 2 hours to install. No holes put Quick shipping to. in pickup and easy to tie camper down. Like that they don't stick out past box when not in use.
Excellent Product, Excellent Service!
They are as advertised, they work. There is no drilling required and therefore no wreaking of the frame. It seems that the truck manufacturers are serious about the payloads and drilling may load to overloads and frame failure. Of course etrailer is great to do business with
These are expensive, but they're built like a tank. Very heavy and solid, but still an easy, straightforward installation. The best part of the package is etrailer's customer service. One of the items in the hardware package was missing, but a quick call resolved the problem right away and the part was shipped out the next day. Good customer service is key to online shopping, and etrailer has nailed it!
Torklift mounts are easy to install and are the only mount that will fit on my 2019 Ram 3500 contrary to what Happijac might tell you. They install to the frame and are out of the way until I put the camper on. The frame extensions are easy to put on and secure the camper without the need to do additional drilling. I"m sold on this system
THESE TORKLIFT CAMPER TIE DOWNS ARE AMAZING MY CAMPER HAS NOT SHIFTED NOR HAVE THESE BRACKETS SHOWN SIGS OF FATIGUE . I RECOMMAND GETTING THESE BEST ON THE MARKET !
I've been installing TorkLift tiedowns on my previous Super Duty pickups for 20 years. I now have a new one ton Ram and I wanted to get another set of Torklifts because they're the best tie down system there is. The earlier ones required drilling holes in the frame; it wasn't a big deal, it's just how they were made. But man, these new ones! First of all, they're BEEFY. Much heavier than the older ones. And they're not painted; these are powder coated and look very nice. Installation using the existing factory mounts and holes is sure better than drilling. The only issue was the parking brake cable, which has to come off. It was a bit of a pain. I needed a much deeper 1/2" socket than anything I had in order to back off the adjusting nut... so I used a little redneck technology by inserting a larger socket over the 1/2" deep socket and just taping the heck out of it to hold them together. Go ahead and laugh but it worked. One thing's for sure--- my big Lance camper ain't coming off with THESE beasts holding it on. And the only way to keep your camper in place and NOT risk damaging the bed is by anchoring it to the frame. And these are MADE IN AMERICA. They're not some inferior, light gauge steel made in you-know-where. Same for the hardware. Expensive? A little, unless you consider it as an investment in making sure your REALLY expensive camper stays put. Five stars... unless I can give them six.
No instructions and have to remove emergency brake cables for install…going to a shop now…gggrrrrr

One year and several camping trips later and this is still a great product…no regrets or issues
This frame mounted camper tiedown was well made and as advertised required no welding. Unfortunately, for the front driver's side of the truck, it required a disassembly and reassembly of the parking brake cable. Taking apart and putting back together the parking brake cable was by far the most difficult part of the job and there was no warning this would be required when purchasing the product. Also, I think there were errors in the torquing requirements some of which were beyond what I could do by hand even with an extension. However this high torque requirement may have been for the back frame mounts not the front. The big advantage of this system is that you can take off the extension that actually connects to the tie down, so nothing is sticking out from the truck when the camper is off.
Fast shipping, still need to install
Did not fit properly, welded some scrap metal on frame attachment bracket to fix. When bolted to rear cab mount frame attachment bracket was a poor fit.

These should fit without any modification. Does your vehicle fit either of these descriptions? 8 Foot Bed - with board or step extending under bed and with a factory installed hitch 8 Foot Bed - with board or step extending under bed and with a TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum 30K. If you have something different then that may be why it is causing issues for you.
This was an easy installation, even without a lift. Works great.

After a lot of use they have been working great. The only issue I have seen is the rear mounts have pulled up into the rear bumper plastic trim. Not a big deal at all though, since there is no damage.
The Tie-Downs were what was detailed in ad. Received on time and package well.
Everything went together well. I did have one issue with some hardware. It called for 1 3/4 in bolts and 1 1/2 in bolts were included instead. I had to source the correct hardware from my inventory which was no big deal but wasn’t expecting to have to do that.
The strength and quality are pretty good but there are already spots showing a bit of rust after just one year of use. Wish the aluminum had been in stock.

Thank you for the photo. If your tie downs are exposed to a lot of road salt or salt water I recommend to periodically spray them off with fresh water to avoid future corrosion. I have attached a helpful article for your reference.

The kit should have came with instructions on how to disconnect the emergency brake cable. Torklift is pretty secretive about their install instructions and do not like to post them online.
