Custom designed for your vehicle.Camilla was great. She was efficient and she followed up after emailing me info. She got the order processed quickly and your company got the tie downs to us in 2 days!!! That is why we continue to buy from etrailer
Great seller, great communication and shipping! I bought the TLF2007, front camper tie downs, for my 2004 Ford F350. Reasonably easy to install in about an hour by myself. The product seems well engineered and very sturdy. Everything lined up great with pre-existing frame and bed mounting rail holes.
It's been a long haul just trying to learn about trucks and slide-in campers. Of course, you don't know what you don't know until you start learning something new. I decided months ago I wanted a truck and slide-in not realizing, at the time, I'd need to think about mounts, turnbuckles, pigtails, payloads, etc! The popular choice for mounts and turnbuckles was Torklift with Fast Guns so I went all in on both. The ordering process via etrailer.com was super easy. They make is simple to pick the right mounts if you know the basics of your truck. Delivery time was very reasonable at about 10 days (and free shipping). Installation was easy too and I'm NOT mechanically inclined. I also received a free set of turnbuckle locks, out of the blue, and couldn't be more excited. Product is great and worth the higher price tag. etrailer.com service was fabulous with regular communication after the order was placed with an unexpected gift to round out the transaction.
Great quality and fast delivery
the items were delivered fast, I only had an issue with the rear brackets, but I called and talked with Paula @ext 79354, She was awesome! it was painless, got everything resolved and all is good! thank you.
These are built very good. They Install easy enough but the front take a little more effort. No fault of the manufacture. The truck fuel lines, fuel tank, etc make it a bit more time consuming. The manufacturer includes some aids that are very helpful.
Purchased tie down brackets for camper, they are strong, designed well giving me confidence when I'm on the road.
Great delivery and pricing.
Great quality, bolted right up and only took a little over an hour! Only thing that needs to be changed is the price! Very expensive.
Quality products.
Everything I expected and more. The quality is obvious as soon as you open the box great product can't wait to get it installed and pick up mu new camper.
solid construction and easy to install
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Significantly overpriced for what it is and on top of that it’s terrible quality!
They were installed on the truck for 2 weeks, and used once when they’ve already started to rust. Even if they were made of stainless steel it’s overpriced for what you get.
When I contacted Etrailer about a warranty they directed me to TorkLift. At first they were just going to send me a can of paint to address the rust issue. After I threatened to leave a poor, but realistic review they sent me a replacement set.
I’d say to wholeheartedly avoid this product but the problem is there aren’t other options…. And they know it…. Which allows charge whatever they want.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front 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.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
The rear Torklift camper tie down instructions and install were straight forward and an easy install. However, the front Torklift camper tie down instructions and install was difficult. The instructions were not clear and the photos of the install included on the instructions were very poor quality. Additionally, the instructions said to torque the bolts but there was not sufficient room to get a torque ratchet on the bolt. In fact it was very difficult to even get two of the nuts on the bolt. Look at the attached photo and you will see that there is no way to get a torque ratchet on this nut. If you order this product expect it to be tough to install and difficult to mount it according to the specifications.

The torklift tie down system is a must. I’ve had them on my GMC Denali the make loading and securing my lance camper a breeze. I just ordered a new set because I recently purchased a new ram truck and the old bracket wouldn’t fit. Not sure how it could be done with out your products.

Perfect fit. Very strong and secure. The leaf spring bolt on my 2017 F350 could only be loosened by a local diesel mechanic. The Ford dealership and corporate repair shops wouldn’t loosen it for me due to their liability concerns. The bolts that you need to feed through with the wire leads are a bit tricky. Be sure you have something like vise grips to clam onto the bolt once it is in place before you remove the wire. You don’t want it to drop back down into the frame. You also need to hold onto the end of the bolt while you hand tighten the nut until the star washer can bite enough to keep it from spinning. Then you can crank it down with your ratchet. All in all, the instructions were very good and complete. I was able to do the installation myself with just the one trip to get the passenger side leaf spring bolt started. I look forward to many years of camping with my unit securely tied down to my truck. Thanks!
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Sturdy and convenient to use, but the powder coat finish has proven to not be very durable or able to withstand typical on-road use. I think other owners may have experienced the same. I would have expected a better finish.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Looking good. The frame mounts arrived well packaged and in good condition.
Installation was very difficult on the 2014 f150. There are no videos covering this year of Ford. The written instructions were OK but the pictures truly are worthless, all you can see is a white stick pointing at some black object in a black picture.
Do not attempt to install these mounts by yourself on a 2014 ford f150, there isn't enough room and you don't have enough hands.
I wasted 3 hours trying to install the drivers side by myself and gave up. With my beautiful assistants help we were finally able to install the drivers side in 45 minutes. The passenger side too 45 minutes as well to install.
Once again the product looks good and arrived in great shape. Time will tell how it performs.

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.
