Speaker 1: Today, we're going to be taking a look at TorkLift's line of Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs. This is for the rear.You'll want to check etrailer.com's fit guide to verify which ones are going to work with your vehicle.They're also available for the front. So, you can get a matching set custom made for your application. These custom mounted brackets are going to provide an easy attachment point to hook up your camper.What's additionally great about those is that they have the removable ends, so when you're not using it, they'll be hidden away and your vehicle will look like factory.The custom mounted brackets we're engineered to provide you with the best location for your tie-down point, to evenly distribute the load. So once they're attached and adjusted, this'll keep your camper from being too top heavy. This will increase the overall ride quality while your camper's attached and the safety.The attachment points are removable and adjustable.
There'll be two loops here where you can make your connection to your camper and there's two holes here to adjust the length of how far your attachment point sticks out.You can use either hole. So if you have very wide camper, you can use that first hole, or if your camper is tucked in nicer, you can use the second hole. The included pin will slide through the hole and keep it in place.It's made of a durable powder coated steel, so it's going to be extra strong and rigid, to keep your camper tied down nice and snug and the powder coat is going to prevent any rust and corrosion from occurring.When you're ready to hook up to your new connection point, take your turnbuckles and attach them to your camper. Now, if you need some turnbuckles, you can pick some up here on our website. You'll hook it in to your camper and you'll also hook it in down here on your new attachment point.Then, depending on your style of turnbuckle, you'll want to tighten it down.
Ours is a twist adjustment type. There are many different styles.And now with both sides in place, we'll repeat that same process in the front.Compared to Stake Pocket, or bumper-mounted camper tie-downs, frame-mounted tie-downs will provide better handling. They also mount out of sight, so they will be undetectable when not in use, giving your truck a cleaner look.Because the custom fit brackets secure tight against your trucks frame, there is no loss of ground clearance; and that completes our look at TorkLift's line of Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs for the rear.

Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
The package arrived very quickly and intact. I have a 2020 Ford F250 SD Lariat short bed with a factory hitch. The tie-downs were really easy to install although the hitch adapter plate (see attached photo) which is supposed to attach to the end of the tie-down would not fit inside the tubing on my factory installed hitch so I installed without it and it is tight and snug
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
My brother installed these and he used air tools. The brackets fit perfectly. The instructions were thorough. They bolted right in and the only delay was the disconnect/reconnect of the e-brake cable to install the driver's side bracket (2019 RAM 3500). After all the parts were laid out, he installed all 4 brackets in an hour.
He commented many times on the weight, high quality and PERFECT FIT of these brackets. These are worth the price and made in the USA.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
I bought this when my previous belly bar and rear tie-down bent badly when our truck slid off the road into a steep ditch and our camper nearly tipped sideways off our truck. This product is a bit better then my old set up, but I expected something much better for this very high price. It wasn't too tough to install, despite the poorly written instructions. Also, the kit did not include a bolt fisher for the 7/16 bolt. The bolt fisher supplied was for a 1/2 inch bolt. Fortunately I had the correct bolt fisher from a previous project. I am also disappointed that the tie down hole has a slot cut in it which seems would significantly weaken it. I am not optimistic that the tie-down point will not bend or break if we have a similar significant side load such as when we slid into the ditch. I will probably weld the slot in the tie-down point shut to strengthen it.

Forklift tie downs are manufactured to exact fit to existing manufactured frame rail holes. They lined up perfectly and after 6000 miles with camper on board have stayed secure. The only downside, (this is relative to when and ware you use you camper) they will corrode when driving through snow covered roads that have been treated with sand and/or salt. I use an oil based product to protect them corroding.

Product was delivered as expected and installed according to the instructions. Disappointed with the coating/paint. Been in operation only a few months and the coating/paint is already coming off and starting to rust.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
I had the mountings professionally attached to the frame. The hatches can be easily removed when not in use( and I would recommend that to keep them from being stolen). Using chains and turnbuckles, I feel very comfortable with my truck camper staying where it is.. does not rock, very solid.
It’s nice to feel secure about my camper staying firmly attached.
It was worth the investment.

Good fit to my vehicle.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
A little tougher to install than the front ones but not too bad. Torklift tie downs are very well made, tried he bumper attached one but I guess bumpers aren't what they used to be I saw bending at the tie down after one trip. So bought these. Entrailer as usual priced well and fast shipping.

The Package arrived on time and all was correct. It was easy to track the order through the shipping process, I found the staff easy to work with and they appeared to be genuinely interested in providing good service.

Feel strong and solid with the camper but already seeing some rust in places. Wish the aluminum had been in stock.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
The TorkLift frame mounted tiedowns for my truck bed camper mounted perfectly on my 2016 RAM 3500. They are holding my camper on very securely and will be tucked away nicely when I remove the camper for Winter. I plan on making a footstep to slide into the receivers then, so I have much easier access to my high truck bed when I use it to haul firewood. The only suggestion I have is that we cleaned up the punched out pin hole edges with a file, inside the receivers. The sharp ridges would have scratched the hold down assemblies a bit when inserted into the receivers. Maybe an opportunity for a manufacturing process improvement there?
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
Easy to install and super secure! Made my Lance 1020 feel like its part of my truck. Highly recommended for the juggernaut class truck campers. I’ll never go back to the stake pocket style or bed mount tie downs again.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
The rear mounts were easy to mount. The only problem the package was missing 4 flat washers. I also just received the Front mounts. They were a little harder to mount by myself. Some advice is to watch the install on [video]. I ended up using a floor Jack to hold the mounts.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
Kit was complete and easy to install. The eTrailer install video on product page was very helpful. Took about 3 hours to install front and rear kits, and that included a sandwich and coffee break. ( RV dealer quoted me 4-6 hours @ $165/hour). Kit lined up with frame mounts exactly. I recommend a helper if you’re installing with truck in the driveway.

The Torklift product is fantastic and etrailer and their staff was fantastic. They helped me get the correct product which allowed me to do what I needed to for my family vacation. Thank you for being so helpful and providing outstanding service.

Easy install on a 2017 Ford F-350 Lariat w/ factory hitch.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
Love these!! They make my camper feel like it’s actually attached to my truck instead of those old junk bed rail mounts!! I’m able to go off road more and get to those good camping spots for my camping [online] channel: Work Less Enjoy Life More”

The installation is not difficult! Just make sure when ordering you don't unintentionally change your vehicle when scrolling! Etrailer will make you pay to send mistakes back to them!!
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
Instructions were straightforward, installation was easy as expected. Didn't need to jack the truck up or anything - just crawl under and bolt on. Easy. Perfect fit for my 2015 GMC Sierra 2500HD
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
So far it's great!! It took me and my buddy about 90 minutes to take off the old hitch on my 2006 Chevy 3500 dually!!! We timed ourselves! It wasn't complicated. We used a floor jack to lift the new hitch into place. All bolt holes matched perfectly. You definitely should use two people to install this thing because if it gets away from you may need to replace some fingers. It's just a heavy piece of equipment. Installing it myself saved me about $600 over having someone else install!!
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Rear in Camper Tie-Downs
This installation was easy. If installation is on F250, the additional notched plates must be attached to the tie-downs. This prevents rotation inside the receiver tube. A couple of ratchet extensions will be required to hold the bolt head. The finished installation is secure and looks good. The welding appearance could be better, but seems strong enough.
