Question:
Hello, I have factory installed running boards on my 2016 Ford, F250 Super Duty truck. Will the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Front - TLF2012 and TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Rear - TLF3006 fit my 2016 Ford, F250 Super Duty truck. I was a little confused when I read: without board or step underneath truck bed and with a factory installed hitch. Does without board mean: running boards?

Expert Reply:
Yes, you are correct without board does mean running board.
The TorkLift Custom Tie-Downs # TLF2012 and # TLF3006 will fit as long as those factory running boards don't extend past the cab of the vehicle. This is because the access holes where the tie-downs mount can be used or covered up in most cases by the running boards. The TorkLift Rear Tie-Downs # TLF3006 will also require there to be a hitch installed with an open ended receiver tube to mount properly, this is why there is the notation for factory hitch as well.
If this describes your 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty then these tie-downs will work for you, if it does not then just let me know what your truck is outfitted with and I will guide you to the right setup.
The last item you will need to secure your camper to your truck is the Torklift Turnbuckles. I recommend the Locking FastGun Stainless Steel # TLS9526-2-LK turnbuckles. With these FastGun turnbuckles you won't have to manually tighten them like standard turnbuckles.
