Hi Misty; I recommend the Brophy Slide In Camper Tie-Downs # HSWB. These are specifically designed for newer full-size Ford pickup trucks. You will also need the Brophy Basic Turnbuckles w/ Hardware for Camper Tie-Downs # TDHP.

What kind of camper do you have?

Brophy Camper Tie-Downs #HSWB do not have a weight rating since they do not support the camper's weight. The truck bed and frame handle that actual camper load and the tie downs provide stability to prevent the camper from shifting in the bed.
