We do have camper tie-downs other than the Torklift, but there are several restrictions for their use.

One of the tie-downs is part # HSSF. These clamp onto the bed rails of your truck. The restrictions are the bed rail cannot exceed 5-1/2 inches wide, and they require at least 2 inches of space beneath the bed rail, and they are not compatible with trucks that have drop-in bed liners, plastic bed rails, double-walled beds, or step side trucks. I have attached a photo that shows how these tie-downs are installed.

If you find you can use the # HSSF tie-downs, you will also need turnbuckles like part # TDHP. This kit includes 4 turnbuckles, 4 S-hooks, and 4 chains.

Based on the restrictions for the Brophy tie-downs, if they will not work, you can check out the attached link I provided. Just use the drop-down on the page to find the tie-downs that match your truck.

Based on the vehicle you said you have, the Torklift tie-down kit I recommend is part # TLF2021 for the front and part # TLF3008 for the rear.

The turnbuckles I recommend for the Torklift tie-downs is part # TLS9526-2-LK.

For your 39" entry height, the 5-step Brophy Camper Scissor Steps, #AS25 will work just fine. I prefer this to the 4-step for your entry height; I think you will find these steps to be a great addition to your camper and they will not be setting…
