Get the safest and most comfortable ride while hauling your camper with tie-downs that mount on the frame of your pickup. Great for your truck's looks: remove the arms from the brackets and you'll hardly know that the brackets are there.
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.

Back tie down box was fine but front tie down box was broken open with one of the T bolts hanging out. Fortunately both T bolts were in the box. There have been numerous reviews about bad packaging and parts missing and beat up so I think whoever is packaging these parts should take heed and do a better job. The rear tie downs went on fine with the help of the video instructions. The front however were harder and required me to grind down the T bolts so they would fit correctly (see pictures). I also had to enlarge the elongated holes to get the bolt in. Also the order of the instructions was in my mind incorrect. I installed the angled bracket supports first and then the main brackets. My recommendation would be to post a video of the installation procedures like they did for the back tie downs. All the parts were well made except the front T bolts and I am hopeful that they will last a long time. The pricing in my mind is high but they appear to be the only game in town so it is what it is. I do recommend these as they seem very strong and well designed.
I think it is a great product but expensive. In retrospect I could not do what I wanted with the truck and hitch so I spent the money needlessly. Not any fault of your company. I would have been just as well to leave the stock OEM and not spent the money anyway. Live and learn.
The mounts were well made, but ridiculously expensive. instructions were dismal, once I figured it out, the rear mounts went quickly.
I have purchased many TorkLift products from eTrailer, all of which have performed as expected. The installation instructions are thorough and easy to follow. eTrailer product support and customer service is second to none. Thank you for your continued reliability.
This is a very well designed and manufactured product. A lot of thought went into form, fit, function and the installation process. Not having to drill, cut or weld on the vehicle and still end up with a robust, flexible mounting system is excellent. Installation is a bit of a task, as long you take the time to read the installation instructions everything goes smoothly.
I would highly recommend this product to anyone considering frame mount tie downs!~
I bought this when my previous belly bar and rear tie-down bent badly when our truck slid off the road into a steep ditch and our camper nearly tipped sideways off our truck. This product is a bit better then my old set up, but I expected something much better for this very high price. It wasn't too tough to install, but that is despite the poorly written instructions. I am also disappointed that the tie-down point has a slot cut in it which seems would significantly weaken it. I am not optimistic that this will not bend or break if we have a similar significant side load such as when we slid into the ditch. I will probably weld the slot shut to strengthen this tie-down point.
The application took dexterity in fishing bolts/spacers and washers through the frame. That is the price to pay for a drill-less install.
Harry and Harriet Homeowner can install this in their garage without a lift.
The final result is excellent - inconspicuous and strong on our 2015 GMC 3500HD
Well built. Installation took about three hours for front TLC2223 and rear brackets TLC3215 on 2017 GMC2500, instructions were not as clear as they might have been. I am pleased with these brackets, and with TorqLift tie spring loaded tie downs camper was rock solid.
Fit perfect and tie down a heavy truck camper.
I have a 2017 Chevy 2500. Installation system was great, install was simple if you watch the videos. The camper is very stable with these tie downs. Much better than my previous set up.
I highly recommend this TorkLift system!
Thanks Katherine everything was still in the box just installed the torklift hitch it fit perfectly thank you for your help with my order awesome customer service.
Could not be happier with the quick service I received from etrailer and outstanding product I purchased. The install was a breeze with the easy to follow instructions and I am now able to stay wherever it is I am playing! Thanks for the great prices and good service ??
Although the price was higher than for other tie-down systems, it was definitely the right purchase. It is rock solid, and I do not regret getting it. It worked great on the maiden voyage (3 weeks of asphalt, gravel, and dirt roads).
Installed easy
The frame brackets have been working great although the tiedowns took a turn after eight months
Love them and easy to install
These brackets are stout, the pictures don't do it any justice. I installed them on my 2017 GMC 2500. The hardest part of the install was fishing the bolts through the frame. The second one only took about 15 minutes. I'm only using the front ones because I have an after market exhaust and the back one would not fit. Everything packed good and decent directions.
Everything that I have purchased from etrailer came in on time went together easily no problems at all
Fit well, long term finish and quality leaves plenty to be desired, after 5k miles in a year and being stored indoors finish is peeling and rusty on the edges
They work great !!! Very satisfied with the quality of the products and your customer service.
works as described and love it. keeps a clean look during and when not in use
So easy to install, look great on the t ruck
They seem like they will work well, but hard to install and very expensive
they wear well i have no problems
Awesome customer service !

To help extend the life of your tie-downs and prevent further rust, you can clean off the rust at the edges and cover any bare metal spots with a black, rust-inhibiting spray paint.
