Features to know about

Stable Camper Handling: Frame-Mounted Tie-Downs

When you’re hauling a camper, nothing matters more than stability on the road. These TorkLift front tie-downs mount directly to your truck’s frame—the most solid part of the vehicle—to create secure attachment points that distribute the camper’s weight evenly and lower its center of gravity. That means better handling, less sway in crosswinds, and a smoother ride over long distances. With the camper locked down to the frame instead of the bed or bumper, you get a setup that stays put no matter where you travel.

Clean Look When Not in Use: Removable Arms

You don’t have to live with bulky brackets hanging off your truck when the camper’s off. The removable arms on these tie-downs slide out in seconds, leaving behind low-profile frame brackets that are barely visible. The tight fit tucks everything neatly under the truck for a clean, near-stock appearance until your next trip.

Install Without Drilling: Custom-Fit Mounting

Each tie-down is built specifically for your truck’s frame and bolts into pre-existing holes, so there’s little to no drilling required. The bolt-on design keeps the frame strong and unmodified while making installation straightforward with standard tools. Because they mount tight to the frame, you don’t lose ground clearance like you would with universal tie-downs—handy when you’re traveling off-road or over uneven ground.

Long-Lasting Strength: Powder-Coated Steel Construction

Made from black powder-coated steel, these tie-downs are built for years of service through harsh weather and rough roads. The durable coating helps resist rust and corrosion so they keep their strength and good looks season after season.

Simple Camper Connection: Adjustable Anchor Points

Each tie-down arm includes two pin holes that let you fine-tune how far it extends from the truck body—perfect for clearing fenders or reaching camper anchor points cleanly. Two holes in the attachment plate let you choose the best angle for your turnbuckles (sold separately), giving you a tight, balanced hold that keeps your camper secure and steady mile after mile.

Good customer service



by:

The parts fit perfectly and easy to ins tall!



by:

I just received my product from etrailer several days early. Everyone I dealt was extremely helpful and friendly. I will not hesitate to purchase from them again.



by:

Easy bolt-on tie downs that are easily stowed out of sight, and also offer excellent stability and strength.



by:

Provides for great stability when carrying older slide -in camper.



by:

Amazing setup!! Brackets fit great!! Instructions were very detailed and correct!! Definitely recommend this product to all truck camper enthusiasts



by:

Amazing setup!! Brackets fit great!! Instructions were very detailed and correct!! Definitely recommend this product to all truck camper enthusiasts



by:

Easily bolted on to my 2013 F-250 Super Duty. It's not often something is truly "bolt-on", as stated in a vendor's description of items without some type of modification. These were a nice change of pace and somewhat enjoyable to install. I found the instructions to be sufficient.



by:

Installed for a 2800# slide in camper. Installed easily and worked perfectly for holding the camper in place.




by:

Installing them was relatively simple, but you should tell people that they need short drill bits. There is little room between the frame and pickup box, unless you have a angle drill. Also in the instructions you have bolts that need to be torxed down but I only found two of the three you list. I would give you five stars but for what you get they are overpriced.



by:

Very sturdy with solid mounting hardware.
Works
very well for anchor points of 2500lbs and more.
Paint could be better, mine have rust developing on all 4 corners.
So I'll just have to clean them up and repaint them.
But as for the strong build, I'm very glad the design is solid....



by:

Service from etrailer was great. Torklift tie downs fit perfect and easy to install. I wish everything that was "bolt on" fit like this.



by:

The TorkLift tie-downs do a great job. The package arrived promptly and I am happy with the service.



by:

Perfect product. Amazing service! Caroline B. really made it happen for me when I called to expedite shipping. I needed the parts before the weekend in order to pick up a truck camper several hours from my home prior to leaving town. Caroline corrected the order, cancelled the original, and had it shipped within 20 minutes. She followed up with emails on tracking as well as delivery. etrailer always has such amazing service, and Caroline really came in clutch for me. Thank you!!!



by:

Directions to install were very good. Had to drill a 7/16" hole through 1/4" steel on each side of the leaf spring hanger bracket (no fun at all). Driver side install has perfect alignment. Passenger side would not align horizontal to ground like driver side. Emailed customer service and they responded quickly and effectively. They provided and alternative which made the alignment better but not as good as the driver side. Still functional.
Not very happy with the finish. The paint (powder coat) was the worst and kept peeling off everywhere. A spray-can of Rustoleum made it all good!



by:

A+ for fit, finish and ease with mounting. Do not believe Turnbuckle angle is proper not allowing enough forward tension or pull on Camper. Also , filling up with gas requires dismounting turnbuckle to access gas fill door.



by:

Everything I needed to install.



by:

Great product



by:

System was easy to install and works like it was designed to.

Hey Michael! Thanks for sharing your picture with us. It looks like you're ready for some fun adventures ahead!



by:

Would have given it 5 stars except I am a little disappointed with the paint quality. Most parts had chips and spots of bare metal right out of the box. Installation was a breeze though and everything fit perfectly! I still would recommend this set, but if you have the extra $ maybe the aluminum version would be worth it if you are worried about rust? Too late for me though...



by:

Received my order without any issues. Installation was easy, as advertised. First use went well.
Thank you



by:

Holly smokes that was some fast shipping! Ordered in the evening and the package was delivered just after noon, the next day.

Great quality and easy installation. Made it possible to go pick up & haul my new camper.



by:

Definitely love these tie downs. I can convert my truck into a camper in less than five minutes and they securely hold the slide-in no matter the road conditions or terrain we are crossing.



by:

The camper tie down are solid and well worth the money. I installed them on my f250 to hold my camper and I just get in and go. Even in the mountain terrain.

    Hi Tyler; TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs for the 2019 F-350 will not fit the 2016. Tie-downs like the # TLF2012 you looked at fit the 2008-2016 models so after 2016 is the cutoff.

  • Weight Difference Between Aluminum and Steel Torklift Tie Downs
    The part # TLF2012A weighs 27 lbs and the # TLF2012 weighs 31 lbs. The # TLF3004A weighs 35 lbs and the # TLF3004 weighs 28 lbs. I would not recommend using two hitch extenders with a bike rack. You might consider a front hitch to carry a bike rack.

  • Frame Mounted Camper Tie-Downs for a 2016 Ford F-250
    In order to add a set of front and rear frame mounted camper tie downs to your 2016 Ford F-250, I would need to know the bed size, running board/bed step option, and trailer hitch type. For the front of your truck you will want to use the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs part # TLF2012 for 6-3/4' bed or part # TLF2016 for 8' beds.

    Since the bed on your 2015 Ford F-250 is 6-3/4 feet and the camper is 8 feet, 7 inches you are correct about needing an extension. Otherwise it is possible for the truck to make contact with the trailer when turning. There are several extensions that will word with the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch # TLF1002-30 which does use a specific extension. I recommend the 21 inch long SuperTruss # TLE1521 because it combined with a ball mount will give you enough extension. You also...

  • Camper and Tie-Down Recommendation for Ford F250 Super Duty with 6-1/2 Ft Bed
    I spoke with one of our local RV dealers here in Saint Louis and he said that they offer a 6.8 and 8.6 Ft truck camper that would work with your truck. You will need to drop or completely remove your tailgate before hauling this type of camper. When choosing a camper you will also want to make sure that you do not exceed the weight capacity of your truck. When it comes to tie-downs, I personally recommend going with our custom fit TorkLift camper tie-downs like the # TLF2012 and # TLF3006....
