On your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD, when installing the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs, part # TLC2220, and part # TLC3212, there is no drilling required for installation. This tie-down system is designed for trucks with a 6-1/2 Foot Bed Extended and Crew Cabs without running boards that extend past cab.

I have attached links to the installation instructions for the tie-downs you can check out.

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…
