Question:

Im searching for a set of frame mounted camper tie-downs for a Ram 1500 w/68inch bed. All Im finding are expensive Torklift tie-downs, and only the D3107 will fit for the rear tie-downs. Are there less expensive options available, such as Billis RVE tie-downs or another company ? Thank you for your time and help

For a more economical option we have the Brophy camper tie downs, but they are not frame mounted. They are bed mounted.

The Brophy Camper Tie Downs, part # TDSF, are a universal application for full-size trucks and they will fit your Ram 1500. The hardware to mount the tie downs to the vehicle are included. These tie downs will fit campers up to 8 feet in length.

If you have a larger camper I would recommend the Brophy Camper Tie Downs, part # HSSF which is a more heavy duty tie down. The tie downs wrap around the bed, not in the stake pockets, and are mounted inside the bed. They will not work with a slide-in bed liner.

There is no weight capacity rating on the camper tie downs and they will work for any camper size that is properly sized for your vehicle. The weight capacity will be on the Brophy Camper Tie Down Hardware Package, part # TDHP that is used to attach the camper to the tie downs. The hardware package has a weight capacity of 3,000 lbs.
