Ready your truck to haul a camper with these sturdy tie-downs. Inserts slide into frame-mounted brackets for use and easily remove for a clean, unobtrusive look. Custom designed for your vehicle.I bought the TLC2220 for a low profile pop up cabover camper which I had for another Chevy 3/4 ton truck. The prior truck utilized a different attachment but was not available for my current 2012 Chevy truck. The TLC220 offers an excellent attachment point that is made out of thick well made steel and covered with a nice black powder coating. The instructions that came with the product should be thrown away. Pictures are poor, verbiage is incomplete and large gaps in the actual application. The saving grace is the video from etrailer. This is a great video. Complete, simple with no gaps and tells you exactly what the difficulties might be. This video even called out the socket sizes. Unfortunately the mate to this; the TLC 3212 rear mounts has a poor video with again gaps in application. And... again the TLC3212 written instructions is just fireplace starter material.
These tie downs, as well as the TLC3215 set, were easy to install if you have some mechanical ability. They function well with our Lance truck camper and become unobtrusive when you remove the tie down extensions. It's too early to comment on corrosion resistance, but my hope is they hold up well.
I ordered these upon recommendation from a friend. Upon receipt I got three estimates and went to a local body shop. When the owner reviewed the installation booklets, he was impressed by the detailed and thorough explanation and pictures by TorkLift. I do not suggest that one person install these, but it seemed easier with two people. I love that the tie downs can be partially removed during non-use to avoid catching on obstructions to the side of the vehicle. Also, the booklet gave a phone number for technical support in case the installer confronts any problems. The salesperson who helped me at etrailer was very helpful and made sure I ordered the correct items to fit my truck. I have always had good results with etrailer.
Great product, made the camper stay put with no shifting. Bolted on to existing holes perfectly although I had to remove an aftermarket rear step to accommodate the anchor at the driver rear side (not unexpected)
Very good product quality with outstanding customer service. Fairly easy to install. Fishing the wire through the frame was a challenge but I used a magnet to capture the wire end to finish the fish through.
I took a long time in writing this review as I wanted to be able to test the product fully. In installing the Tie-Downs, the instructions are pretty vague when it comes to fishing the one bolt through the frame. What is not mentioned is that the position of the large washer that is on the bolt while having to be fitted through the hole makes the difference of getting the bolt through the hole or not. One reviewer said that he had to widen the hole in order to get the bolt through, I too had widened the hole a little, until I realized that it was the washer that was keeping the bolt from going through. The washer needs to be at a 45 degree angle allowing the bolt to be able to gain the extra room against the top of the frame to properly go through the hole. I know this does not sound clear, but what I say will make sense when you are under the truck fishing the bolt through the frame. That said, after mounting, the Tie-Downs were very secure and all parts looked great. I was worried that the rear passenger side Tie-Down would hit the wide diesel exhaust. It fit perfectly in the space between the exhaust pipe and the frame with no modifications needed, great design and engineering. The Tie-Downs hold my truck camper great, secure and steady. Great product. The bed mat fit perfectly as well. Exactly what is needed for the truck camper.
Well made. Salesman provided great insight into the why these are so highly rated. Construction is exceptional. Directions on installation are easy, but watch the video first. Support team is excellent. Would I buy this again & recommend these..absolutely. Now that I own these, i'm always looking at other "rigs" & it's apparent the "word is out" on these. I haven't bought the back tie downs yet...but that's coming!
Very easy ordering from e-trailer and the install went very smooth. Pretty easy task almost anyone can do. My only complaint would be that I wish manufacturers would start including nylon lock nuts rather than split lock washers. It all still worked great either way. Thank!
Great service, easy installation, even for a worn out Vietnam Veteran. Etrailer youtube video is perfect!
Work great very satisfied
TorkLift front anchor design requires fussy installation I could design a more elegant anchor, and have done so for a previous truck; These did not have complete powder coat protection inside the tubes, requiring painting inside tubes to ward off corrosion from inevitable road salt. Once installed these proved secure and strong, and are superior to HappyJac truck box anchors.
I love these Torklift tie-downs! I've used them on my other trucks all for use with my slide on truck camper. We camp on the beach and the trails can be very bumpy and tippy and these tie downs do an excellent job at keeping the camper secure. Installation is quick and easy! Highly recommend! etrailer.com has the best price+shipping combination!
TorkLift frame mounted Tie-Downs installed nicely, and work very well. Travelled across the country and back hauling my truck camper with no issues.
As usual ETRAILER sent my camper tie downs safe and sound. After opening the boxes and doing a quick inventory I discovered there was 2 pins missing. A quick call to TORKLIFT and parts are in the mail. Easy installation with clear instructions. You cant go wrong with ordering TORKLIFT products from ETRAILER.
I put this product on my truck tonight and was pleased with they way they bolted up and the low profile of them under my truck. They seemed very solid and well built. The only thing I would change is to have a cap that could be placed in the ends when not in use. I will be searching for something to work. Overall I would recommend this product to anyone needing camper tie downs.
Ordered front and rear tie-downs for my new truck. They were shipped and received in two working days and fit like a glove. Install was simple and quit ingenious as to the use of factory holes in the frame that were used. These are quality ( made in USA ) products that you will have nothing but confidence in when you are strapping down your camper. What a great first impression etrailer made with me! Thanks Lisa D
Great camper tiedowns. Can’t even see them when you take off the arms. Instructions were harder to follow than needed but product is great
The application took dexterity in fishing bolts/spacers and washers through the frame. That is the price to pay for a drill-less install. Harry and Harriet Homeowner can install this in their garage without a lift. The final result is excellent - inconspicuous and strong on our 2015 GMC 3500HD
Like the service from etrailer and the torklift product. Avg guy it took around 4 hours to read the paper work and do the install complete. Everything fit the first time.
These went on easily and fit the truck perfectly. I don't have a lift so I put them on while the truck was on the ground. No problems. Took less than an hour. You need an extension to get the 18mm socket to the bed bolt. Mine is 20", but 15" would have been more than enough.
