Video Transcript for Feature Review TorkLift Tie Downs-TL33VV

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today, we're gonna take a look at these TorkLift Talon Custom Frame-Mounted Aluminum Rear Camper Tie-Downs. These tie-downs provide attachment points at the rear of your truck bed for securing a bed-mounted camper. Now, these are custom fit tie-downs that are designed to fit different years and versions of the Ram, the Ford F-Series, the GMC Sierra, and the Chevrolet Silverado trucks. To confirm if these work for your vehicle, take advantage of our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com, and input the year, make, and model of your truck, and our fit guide will let you know if these will work for your truck or if we have something comparable that will work for you. Now, the frame-mounted design, it's going to ensure excellent handling, because securing your camper to your truck's base instead of its bed better distributes weight to keep your setup from being too top heavy. The brackets fit tight to your truck's frame, so there's not gonna be any loss of ground clearance, and these rustproof and lightweight aluminum alloy tie-down inserts are gonna secure to these durable stainless steel receiver brackets.

Now, these inserts can be easily removed from the frame-mounted brackets with these included bail pins, and so, I'm just removing one of these pins here from this receiver bracket, and as you can see, they slide out very easily, and then when you remove the tie-down, the bracket itself is gonna be virtually undetectable. Again, this insert is aluminum, so it's very lightweight, you're gonna be able to easily remove these inserts and stow them in the rear of the bed of your truck when you don't need them. And what's nice about what you're receiving here is when you do remove the insert, this does include caps to put over the receiver bracket, so I'm just gonna kinda work this on here a little bit to show you what this is going to look like, and it takes a little bit of doing, I'm sure this cap will loosen up over time, so you can slide that on a little bit quicker, but as you can see, that gives your bracket a nice finished look when you have that insert out, and this is going to protect the inside of that bracket from dirt and debris and stuff that flies up from the road, so there's not gonna be any obstruction in there for when you wanna replace your insert. Now, these inserts have two different holes as you can see there, and the one that's farther out right here near the end can be used for campers that are wider, and if your camper is a little bit narrower, you can slide this in to the hole that's closer to the end that will be sticking out of this insert. So again, this is gonna be flexible for you, depending on the width of your camper.

So I'm gonna go ahead and put this back into place here, line it up here with the second hole, and replace my bail pin. Again, it's gonna be a very easy and very smooth operation. These both have a high-impact powder coat finish that's going to add an extra layer of protection to the brackets. And you're going to get everything that you see here on the table before me, you're going to get the two rear tie-down inserts, the frame brackets, the necessary hardware that you're going to need to successfully install this to your truck, and of course, instructions to walk you through the installation process, and again, these caps that you can put on the receiver brackets when your inserts are removed. So this is going to provide a very secure connection point for your turn buckles.

Really, it's a great quality, and I think it's going to last you a great while and provides you many years of service. I do wanna mention that these are made in the USA, and these do have a lifetime warranty. Well, that's gonna conclude our look today, I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me..
