Frame Mount Camper Tie Down Recommendation for 2007 Ford F-250

Question

Question:

Hello, I am looking at getting a truck camper for my truck in the next few months. I need to get the correct tie downs for it. I have never had a truck camper so I want to make sure I get the best option. I have a 2007 F250 crew cab long bed. I do not have any steps or anything on this truck. It is 2 wheel drive if that matters. Do any of your tie down require welding to the frame or are they more drill and bolt on? Any suggestions much appreciated. Thank You

Hey Ryan, thanks for all of the info you listed on your 2007 Ford F-250. Based on all of that you would want the frame mounted Torklift tie downs part numbers # TLF2011 and # TLF3004 which do not require any welding or drilling to install.

Answer 2

The Happijac tie down kits for both of the vehicles you mentioned are totally different so you'd need to go with the #LC182910-182971 for the 2003 Ford F-250. There isn't anything that would carry over between the two trucks unfortunately.

Since you only need a front tie down setup for your 2003 Ford Super Duty all you need is the part #LC182910-182971 and you'd be set. Then for a set of turnbuckles you'd only need the part #LC182895 and have that covered as well.

Hey Bryan, that's a good question. The pricing can definitely be misleading, but I wouldn't use it to judge the quality of the tire. A lot of that comes down to promotions, inventory, and whether you're looking at a tire by itself or…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
