TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs - Custom Frame Mount - Front
part number: TLC4204

  • Creates attachment points for securing your camper to your truck bed
    • Requires turnbuckles (sold separately) to attach camper to tie-downs

    • Extend arms out from truck body to clear bowed sidewalls and fenders
    • Choose between 2 anchor holes to get the best angle for a secure hold

    • Uses pre-existing holes in the frame - little to no drilling required
  • Includes 2 front tie-downs and installation hardware
  • Made in the USA
  • Lifetime warranty


A Safe Ride is a Comfortable Ride

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.


Don't Ruin Your Truck's Looks

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.


Custom Fit, No-Drill Installation

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.

Securing Your Camper

TorkLift Tie Down Example

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!).


where to put camper tie downs

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.

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.

Have been using these for a year now and have complete confidence in them. Rock solid attachment points.



by: Tim C03/03/2024

Tommy C recommended the TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs. The Instructions are great and very easy to follow. They supply some cool wire helpers to hold bolts in the frame for you. All went very smoothly and a very secure. I love how solid the Camper feels on the truck.

Installed on Chevy 2018 3500HD with factory nerf bars. Gnarly installation. Drivers side was difficult. There was one bolt that I couldn't access the back side because the gas tank is in the way. I was able to install these but I'd recommend professional installation. Holes in brackets do no line up well, like 3/8" off. Driver's side bracket also interferes with the park brake cable, instructions have you zip tie the park brake cable to the hose above, so when the park brake is actuated it moves the hose along with the cable. This shouldn't be done like this. Overall, poor engineering.



by: Kevin03/18/2024

No complaints they work as they should. Watch if your have aftermarket exhaust. Make sure you have clearance.

Was an opened box and missing two 3 1/2 bolts I had to go buy. Sturdy product. Quick Delivery.



by: Robert04/19/2024

A little on the pricey side but they are heavy duty and well built. They work great and still look new after the first year.



by: Kaela08/24/2023

The camper tie downs do not fit my vehicle and they won’t honor free shipping back to them. Customer service isn’t good and they apparently do not have ones to fit my vehicle.



by: Gordon04/26/2024

The holes did not line up going to have to have machine shop modify holes.$[XX] dollar expense.



by: Mike 02/29/2024

Solid set up for my truck little tricky to install need 2 guys at least I did but very solid set up

I have to thank you and Will who helped me on the phone and your company at etrailer you are truely a great company and had helped me get the correct parts after a parts being missed boxed knowing it wasnt not etrailers fault i will continue to use and support etrailer for all the great work thank you again



by: Don06/12/2020

I bought the TLC3212 for a pop up cabover camper. This is a strong well made steel mount that will outlast the truck. Total installation time for this was 15 minutes so its easy. That being said the written instructions are worthless and before you read them just put it in the fireplace kidling box. The video, unlike the TLC2220, is poor with many opportunities for remaking. Fortunately the mount is simple so most that can turn a wrench will figure it out. Note to the manufacture, please replace the long 2' bolt with a shorter one so you can get it into the leaf spring box.



by: Craig L11/09/2019

Product went on easily, but not heavy enough for the Lance 1181 installed on my truck. Even the spring loaded connectors bent the brackets and had to have both front and rear strengthened while traveling in the Yukon.



by: Charlie05/06/2016

I installed the front tie-downs without any problem, except the factory bed bolts are to short, about 2-3 threads, I know this because if you torque bolts to 50ft. lbs. you will strip the threads in the nut, I had to tap out nut and go to the next size, on one side only, got longer bolt for other side. Other than that, the instructions are very good and made installing easy.



by: Mike Pomeroy05/29/2020

Fairly easy install, received the wrong parts, but was sent correct parts right away. Customer service was great. My only complaint is the paint on all 4 brackets has either fallen off, or in the process of falling off. These should be powder coated. Because of this, they are now covered in rust, joys of living in northern New England



by: Charles04/05/2018

These rear tie downs work fairly good - some issue with the bolt next to the frame, not enough room for washer and nut. will have to keep a eye on it to see if it works loose.



by: Cody 10/02/2023

Easy enough to install. Very strong mounts. Wouldn’t use anything else.



by: John M.12/02/2016

TorkLift frame mounted Tie-Downs installed nicely, and work very well. Travelled across the country and back hauling my truck camper with no issues.



by: Lee07/23/2020

No problem with installation. They have worked perfectly on a two and a half month trip of 8500 miles including off road boondocking. Got them to replace an original bumper hold down because the bumper was being bent upward.



by: Mike12/04/2017

These require a decent effort to install and an entire afternoon, but their solid and sturdy design provides confidence that you're camper isn't going anywhere. I've driven up/down some pretty rough mountain roads with no worries. They clear the diesel exhaust pipe just fine- which was one of my concerns.



by: Kevin09/13/2019

Very easy ordering from e-trailer and the install went very smooth. Pretty easy task almost anyone can do. My only complaint would be that I wish manufacturers would start including nylon lock nuts rather than split lock washers. It all still worked great either way. Thank!



by: Chris09/22/2019

Perform well. Hard to install through the truck frame. I lost one bolt in the frame; otherwise, good product.



by: Christian 03/06/2023

I'm surprised by the great quality of these mounts.



by: Jon 04/12/2023

great product



by: Nick M.09/21/2020

Easy no drill install. They work great!



by: Ansen11/08/2022

Fit perfectly! Works great keeping my camper on the truck and very little shifting.

  • Tork Lift Camper Tie Downs for a 2016 Chevy Silverado 3500 with Single Rear Wheels
  • To determine the correct camper tie downs for your 2016 Chevy Silverado 3500 we need to know the bed length, cab style, and if the truck has a factory hitch, aftermarket hitch, Tork Lift hitch, or no hitch. All of the front options for models that have running boards are # TLC4204 and they are currently listed for Crew or Double Cabs and 8 foot beds; none for short beds. So if you have a Crew or Double Cab with an 8 foot bed then for the rear you can use # TLC3215 if you have a factory

  • Camper Tie-Down Kit Recommendation for a 2012 Chevy Silverado 3500 Long Bed Dually
  • I recommend adding the following TorkLift Tie-Downs to your 2012 Chevy Silverado 3500 long bed dually: - Front # TLC4204 - Rear # TLC3212 These are designed to fit if your truck has a factory trailer hitch so you'll want to confirm that prior to purchasing. To complete your tie-down setup I also recommend picking up turnbuckles like the TorkLift AnchorGuard Derringer Turnbuckles # TLS9020. These are easier to use than chains and provide a fast and easy way to help keep your

Near the top of the page is a drop-down box you can make a selection based on the bed length, cab style, running boards, and whether or not you have a hitch installed on your Silverado.

  • Camper Tie Down Recommendation for 2019 GMC Sierra 2500HD with Lance Camper in Bed
  • Since the camper is longer than the bed of your truck you will have to go with a Torklift style of camper tie down as the Brophy tie downs can't be used with the campers longer than the truck bed. If you can get back to me with the bed length, cab style, and if you have running boards and a factory hitch I can set you up with what you'd need. Here's a link to everything in the meantime though.

Instead, for your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado, you're going to want to use the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs # TLC2219 for the front, and # TLC3212 for the rear.
