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.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 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.
Jim - 11/19/2020Great quality, bolted right up and only took a little over an hour! Only thing that needs to be changed is the price! Very expensive.
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.
chris b - 09/26/2016Everything 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.
Quality products.
solid construction and easy to install
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Jason was great to work with on getting the proper camper tie downs for my truck as it was a new truck and was a bit confused as to the proper application. I had them installed within an hour. Even an armature bolt twister could do this! I have used my camper a lot since putting these on my truck and will tell you these are THE MOST SECURE ANCHORS I have ever used on any of my trucks PERIOD! You will not make a bad decision going with this product. I recommend these tie downs over any product available! I Don't normally give recommendations or endorse products. These I am truly impressed with.

The rear camper mounts took 10 minutes each to install. The front ones took 22 minutes each. The mounting brackets are well built and designed. It would have been nice if the install instructions we’re online so we could have read them before we received the mounts.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Steve Z at etrailer was sharp and very knowledgeable on the companies product. Steve was able to work with me on getting the proper camper tie downs for my 2015 Dodge Ram 1500 (Item #TLD2121). He told me when they would be arriving and they actually arrived earlier than expected. Great product, install was pretty easy, I had them installed within an hour. This is a very high quality product with heavy duty construction. They provide a secure attachment for tie downs to the truck camper. The instructions provided are adequate, but not great. I Don't normally give recommendations or endorse products, but these I am truly impressed with. Thank you so much Steve and etrailer.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Installed on my 2020 F250 Supeduty, they were easy to install. They were missing a few pieces of hardware but etrailer got the parts shipped out the next day. The front driver side plate did take a little puzzle like twisting to get around the brake lines but wasn’t really that difficult. I also purchased the rear tie downs and they are even easier to install. The front and rear took about 3 hours total to install. I only needed to buy a 32mm socket for the suspension bolt.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Installed on 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD. Absolute perfect fit on both sides. Thx for all the videos online etc... No joking, I had each on in 15 minutes. One is always apprehensive about fish wires and interior frame bolts. No problem here. I did do one thing different than any thing I read in instructions or saw on the internet. When I removed the top stock box bolt, I hung the unit loosely from the bolt. There was plenty room to move it around and install the frame bolt with the fish wire. Never lifting or holding the unit during this part of the install. Simply inserted the bolt into the frame with wire and hardware then into the the slotted hole of the unit, and added washers and nut. On this unit there's only one interior frame bolt. The other is thru frame. Excellent powder coat. Fantastic packing and boxing. Truly a first class outfitter.

TorkLift frame mounted tie downs are awesome. Just installed them today on the new Tundra and they are impressive. I have used Happijac tie downs in the past and they work and do the job. I wanted something a little beefier and TorkLift is definitely what I was looking for. Fairly straight forward install, takes a little tinkering but the fit is perfect and there is no doubt TorkLift did their homework. Great quality steel and welds look good. Great work TorkLift! Ordering from etrailer is always easy and they seem to have customer service dialed. They have better information on their site than most manufacturers.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
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.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
I have had both the front and rear tie downs installed on my F-250 Super duty with an Eagle cap 950 truck camper. These are the only way to go. Being attached to the frame it feels a part of the truck itself and and it is so much safer than any bed mounted tie downs. I have taken the camper off road and the stability is no problem due to being tied to the frame itself. If you want piece of mind for your camper travels, invest in these.
Ken C - 02/03/2021Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
They are easy to install and work great with the torque lift camper tie-downs. They are so strong that I use them as a step to reach things in the bed of the truck when the camper is not in the truck.
Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
I installed these on my 2018 Toyota Tundra myself. As advertised, they fit into existing bolt holes and installation was straightforward. My slide-in camper attached as advertised and the unit has been trouble free through some rough off road travel. I recommend this item highly and prefer it to my previous camper tie down system.
J I - 04/12/2021Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
They were quick to arrived from the time I placed my order. Although the tie downs didn't come with installation instructions, they were easy to install. These tie downs give me ease of mind that my camper is firmly secured to my truck.
Doug H - 06/21/2021Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
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.
Michael J - 05/18/2021Review from a similar Frame-Mounted Front in Camper Tie-Downs
Make sure the long upright is on the proper side of the bed mount.
