Hello, I have a 2017 Ram 2500 with the rambox and was wondering if this would fit my truck and if not, what might? I have had the hardest time finding mounting hardware for the rambox. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reaching out, Austin!

Yes, the TorkLift Tie Downs # TL29DR will fit just fine on your 2017 Ram 2500 with the RamBox kit. The issue you might run into is making sure the camper is able to fit your truck bed since it's narrower than normal.

Be sure to also pick up some turnbuckles like the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles # TLS9529-2-LK so it's easier to secure the camper to the tie-downs.

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.…
