Thanks so much for that info, and we do have camper tie-downs for your 2008 Chevy Silverado 3500 (including the dually models) Crew Cab with a long bed, factory hitch and no running boards. I verified with TorkLift for you that the correct tie-downs are the following:

- Front: TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs # TLC2204

- Rear: TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs # TLC3209

These are frame-mounted tie-downs, which means they are going to distribute the weight of your camper across your truck's base instead of its bed to give you optimal stability and the best handling. The only other thing you will need are turnbuckles, and for that the best option by far are the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles.

These turnbuckles are the easiest to use due to their lever-action handles, and are also locking to help protect your investment. They come in a quantity of four and you can choose from different colors:

- Black: TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles # TLS9529-2-LK

- Gray: TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles # TLS9522-2-LK

Additionally, for a dually, it could be hard to position the turnbuckles over the fenders, so there is an adapter that bolts onto your camper. If the distance between the front bumper of your camper and the center of the rear anchor point is less than 90 inches you will want to use the TorkLift Camper Anchor Relocation Kit # TLA7004.
