Hi Roger,

For your 2012 Ram 3500 Dually with cab length running boards and a factory hitch, you'll need the TorkLift Custom Frame Mount Tie Downs part # TL26VV. This is a front and rear set of steel tie downs that will bolt to existing frame holes, so no drilling is necessary. Please be aware, the TL26VV is for a 6.5' truck bed and will not work with an 8' bed. Also, if you have the aftermarket Mopar rear-mounted kick out steps that mount under the bumper these tie downs will not work for your truck.

Because your truck is a dually, you might also need the TorkLift Camper Anchor Relocation Kit part # TLA7004. It will move the anchor points away from the fenders which can make it difficult to position the turnbuckles. You'll only need this adapter if the distance between the front bumper of your camper and the center of the rear anchor point is less than 90 degrees. If needed this is also an easy bolt on installation.

If you're in need of turnbuckles, I recommend the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles part # TLS9529-2-LK. This is a set of four turnbuckles with lever-action handles that make it easy to tighten and release the turnbuckles. Four keyed alike lock and keys are also included so you can secure them to your camper.

Have you used a side-in truck bed camper with your truck before?

I received the tiedowns and installed them. However the two front extensions are drilled differently. I have to pick up my camper so I drilled new holes in the wrong one which will work till I can get the correct one.
