TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs
TorkLift's custom, frame-mounted tie-downs let you secure your truck bed camper to your pickup for the long haul. By attaching to your truck's base instead of its bed, these tie-downs better distribute weight to keep your setup from being too top-heavy.
TorkLift Trailer Hitches
TorkLift's SuperHitch dual-receiver trailer hitches let you tow a trailer and carry a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier at the same time. Pre-drilled mounting points are in place for attaching TorkLift's super-sturdy camper tie-towns.
TorkLift RV and Camper Steps
GlowSteps ensure proper footing as you climb into or out of your RV or camper. Lightweight, rustproof scissor steps easily fold up for storage. Glow tape provides nighttime visibility.
TorkLift Vehicle Suspension
TorkLift StableLoad pads install in your vehicle's factory overload springs to give you improved handling with minimal sway and body roll.
TorkLift Hitch Accessories
Heavy-duty SuperTruss hitch extensions work with TorkLift SuperHitch dual-receiver trailer hitches to extend the top receiver of the hitch so that it clears your camper, allowing you to tow your trailer while your camper's installed. Extensions maintain a high capacity and can be used with weight-distribution systems.

- Going with a 5 step or a 4 step scissor step for your slide-in truck bed camper will depend on where you want to mount the step, the manufacturer of the step, and also personal preference.
If you like the TorkLift GlowSteps better, I spoke with my contact at TorkLift and he recommended a 5-step scissor step # TLA7805 for your camper's door height. He said if it was mounted lower, the 4-step # TLA7804 would work fine, but he would go up to the 5-step scissor step. I personally also think...

We recently installed this solar panel on a trailer to maintain the charge on a battery. I have attached a review and installation video of this solar panel for you.

- The main difference between the Torklift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles, # TLS9522-2-LK, and the AnchorGuard Derringer Turnbuckles, # TLS9020, is how the camper tie-downs are mounted on your truck.

- To maintain the warranty of the Torklift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs, # TLN2409 and # TLR3500, for your 2010 Nissan Frontier, you will want 4 spring loaded turnbuckles like the Torklift SpringLoad XL Turnbuckles, # TLS9050A or the FastGun Turnbuckles, # TLS9526. Torklift requires spring loaded turnbuckles for frame mounted tie-downs due to the tension they provide.

- When replacing steps on a 5th wheel trailer you will want to stay with the same number of steps unless going to more steps retains the same retracted dimensions of your existing steps. For aftermarket steps there is no fit information in regards to specific trailers. You would have to go by the measurements.
TorkLift steps # TLA8004 have a mounting base that is 27-7/16 inches wide and 12 inches deep. When retracted the steps hang down 16-17 inches from where they mount. The 3-step model,...

- Unless you're planning on carrying a truck bed camper again, the Torklift # TLF1002-30 Hitch you referenced would be overkill for you. A Class V hitch like the Curt # C15410 would be a less expensive option. For a ball mount, use the Draw-Tite # 40331 with the # 19286 2-5/16 inch trailer ball.

- The TorkLift PowerArmor battery box # TLA7708RS has the following internal dimensions: 26-1/2" long x 7-3/8" wide x 12-9/16" tall. You would have to place your batteries next to each other and measure them to determine if both will fit in this box.

The 3 step version part # TLA843 has a bracket height instead of 27-7/8 inches so it would not be an ideal fit.
