Frame Mounted Camper Tie Downs And Hitch Extender For 2024 Chevy 3500 Dually  

Updated 02/02/2026 | Published 01/27/2026

Question:

I have a 2024 silverado 3500 dually with a factory 2 1/2inch hitch. I need a 4ft extension and frame mounted camper hold down brackets. The boat Im pulling is only 2000lbs but might want to pull a bigger trailer sometime.

Hey Dale, thanks for reaching out. We can provide all of that! Here are the frame mounted tie downs and hitch extension I recommend for your 2024 Chevy 3500 Dually:

- TorkLift Tie Downs - Custom Frame Mount - Front and Rear # TL94PR

- Titan Hitch Box Extension for 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches, 41" - 48" Long # RP45018

For the tie downs, they will fit the 8' bed dually models without running boards, or with running boards that are cab length only. The rear tie downs will work with the factory hitch.

The extension is rated for 4,000 lbs at 48" so it'll work great for your 2,000 lb boat.

Keep in mind the turnbuckles are sold separately, and for that the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles for Frame-Mounted Tie-Downs # TLS9529-2-LK.

What kind of camper do you have? Any cool trips planned?

I installed the tie downs and they are working great. Did not have to drill any holes which was nice. In terms of the hitch extension I’ve been looking at these as well. At this point I’m leaning towards replacing the factory hitch and installing the one that has two large square tubes. I have a 2021 Chevy 3500HD. Hope this helps.

@JoeG Hey Joe. Yea that is a good call replacing the factory hitch with one of the TorkLift dual receiver hitches. The TorkLift hitch extensions are by far the strongest out there. Its a pretty clean setup plus you can get the most extension and the most weight capacity so its a win-win. For the 2021 Chevy 3500, the hitch you will need is part # TL74FR. How long of an extension were you needing?

My tie downs worked fine but I did have to shim the right side rear it was made wrong and the outer part would not clear the fender

Hi Dale. I've installed the torklift tie downs and torklift super 30k hitch and use a 48" super truss and pull a 7k cargo trailer. I 1st tried a Curt 48 extension but that didn't work well. So I bought the torklift 48 ext. But. You will need to buy rear torklift tie downs that are correct for the torklft 20 or 30k hitch. The 48" torklift super truss works great with that set up.
