These custom fit tie-downs give you the safest and most comfortable ride when hauling a camper. They mount to the frame of your pickup - no drilling required! With the arms removed, the brackets can barely be seen.
Features:
If you're looking for the best tie-downs for your camper, frame-mounted is the way to go. The frame is the most solid part of your entire vehicle, so it just makes sense to attach your camper to something that's not going to warp, bend, or twist. Even more importantly, the camper's center of gravity will sit lower and its weight will be spread across the entire bed. This avoids a top-heavy load perched on top of your bed rails that's liable to sway and get pushed around by crosswinds. The camper's not going to shift or slide around while you drive; it's going to stay put, and your truck is going to handle just like it does without a camper.
Quick Tip: If you have a plastic or spray-in bed liner, it's important that you use a rubber mat under the camper to eliminate any sliding or bouncing.
Frame-mounted tie-downs are also a great pick for preserving your truck's good looks. The brackets install on the frame, tucked nearly flush with the underside of the vehicle. Remove the arms from the brackets when you're not hauling your camper, and the brackets will be barely visible.
Completely custom to your vehicle, the tie-downs attach to exisiting holes in your frame so that there's little to no drilling and no need for any modifications. Because they're custom, you'll want to use our in-house application guide to make sure you get the exact right model. The tie-downs you need might be different depending on what type of hitch or other accessories you have.
Once the tie-downs are installed, use a set of turnbuckles (sold separately) to secure the camper to the tie-downs. The shank on each arm has 2 pin holes so you can choose how far out they extend, that way the turnbuckles can reach the anchors on your camper without making contact with your truck. Tighten the turnbuckles to the correct level of tension (not too tight!).
Make sure the anchor points are offset from the tie-downs instead of lined up with them so that they will hold your camper from multiple angles. This is important for keeping your camper from shifting. Two holes in the attachment plate of the tie-downs let you find the best angle for you camper anchors.

Hello neighbors, it's Brad from Etrailer and today we are at World Wide Technologies Raceway, and we're walking around taking a look at all of the trailers and all the different combos of rigs. And this one caught my eye. I love in-bed campers. I think it's an awesome way to get around and still be able to camp but also have the usability of a truck. You don't need a big old RV to tow things around. And we ran into Leroy, talked to him.
He's got the torque lift mounts here. And he's taken this to Colorado to visit family. And the fact that that holds that in place is key. With that camper, you're really gonna want that stability. The torque lift does a really good job of making sure you have solid points that mount it and keep the camper in place not moving as you're going down the road.
Now having the torque lift tie downs are gonna be essential for your in-bed camper. It's gonna bolt directly to the frame creating a mounting point that extends past the outside portion of the bed. And that way you can have your strut in place and anchor this down. You do have adjustability here with your jam nuts being able to really tension that down perfectly. And you're gonna have them on all four corners of your bed so it's gonna keep it nice and stable.
So I was talking to Leroy about his trips out west to Colorado with this, and a lot of what you're gonna get is gusts on the highway, and something that he did as a racer and fabricator, he made his own wedges inside of the bed to kind of keep that in place because your anchor guard torque lift does act as a little bit of suspension to kind of keep that in place. So that really keeps it nice and steady and just kinda make sure that even over rough and rocky terrain, it's gonna stay in place. Torque lift camper tie-downs come custom fit for your truck, like Leroy has here on his Ram. You'll want to use our fit guide here at Etrailer to ensure that you're getting the proper fit for the front and rear of your truck bed. While you're at it, be sure to pick up a set of torque lift turn buckles to make the connection between your in-bed camper and custom tie downs.
They're available in the traditional style like Leroy has and also as a locking fast gun turn buckle with quick release levers, making it fast and easy to secure your camper to your truck. An awesome day at World Wide Technology's Raceway. We got to meet lots of neighbors whether they be local or around the country right here in Etrailer's own backyard in Madison, Illinois. Now it's awesome to see them in their element with their race cars and we're happy to allow them to have the parts and accessories necessary to make sure that they have the best experience while towing their race cars around.
