Hello Bart, thanks for reaching out. I can definitely point you in the right direction, but I will need a bit more information on your truck before I can recommend the correct tie downs. Can you please answer the following questions for me?

1. What year is your F350?

2. Are there running boards or steps on the truck? If so are they cab length only? Or do they go from wheel-to-wheel?

3. Do you have a factory installed or aftermarket hitch on the rear? If aftermarket, please tell me the brand.

Drop your answers in the comments below for me and I am happy to recommend the correct front and rear tie downs.

@BartK Perfect, thanks! You will need the F2032 for the front and F3008 for the rear. We sell these tie downs in a complete kit as part # TL87DR. Sounds like you already have your turnbuckles so this will be all you need. Here is a link to an installation video:

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…

Answer 8

It sounds like the purpose of getting the air helper spring would be to counteract the 1 inch compression you're getting in your rear suspension caused by the pin weight of your 5th wheel. If that's the case, I believe that the AirLift 5000…

Yes, it will work. You'll just need to cut the Lance 6-pin connector out and rewire it into the etrailer Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit w/ Junction Box and RV Style Connector item #e99011. Here are the individual functions of that Lance 6-pin:…

Answer 12

The 6-pole sockets that we carry can only handle up to 12 gauge wire so the only way to really swap away from Lance's proprietary connector would be to treat it like a standard camper and switch to a junction box and 7-way connector like parts…
