Hello Shelly,

Welcome to etrailer! I'm glad you found us.

For your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with the 6-3/4' bed, factory hitch, and running boards that do not extend past the cab, you'll want the TorkLift Tie Downs - Custom Frame Mount - Front and Rear # TL86NR. Since they're custom fit for your truck, they bolt directly to the frame for a secure mounting point and help keep the camper stable while you're on the road.

I also noticed you previously purchased the TorkLift Tie Downs - Custom Frame Mount - Front and Rear # TL85PR, which will fit great on a 2016 Silverado 2500.

When you say you already have the tie-downs, do you mean you already have the removable arms, or are you referring to the turnbuckles? If you're referring to the turnbuckles, that's great because you can absolutely reuse those. If not, you'll also need the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles for Frame-Mounted Tie-Downs - Stainless Steel - Black - Qty 4 # TLS9529-2-LK. They're my go-to recommendation because they make loading and unloading your camper quick and easy, and the built-in locks help keep everything secure.

Unfortunately, TorkLift does not sell just the frame mounting brackets by themselves. They are only available as part of the complete tie-down kit to ensure you get the correct, vehicle-specific brackets for a secure, frame-mounted installation. I attached an image of what everything looks like once it's installed.

What kind of in bed camper did you get? I can't tell if your email means you ride horses or not, did you get the camper for horse shows? I used to show Western as a kid which is why I am asking. I am determined to have my own someday =)

we bought the complete kit for our 2015 chevy silverado 2500. we were traveling out west. our camper had everything including a slide out, bathroom with shower and a generator. sorry i cant think of the brand name but it was a great one. unfortunately my husband is now 100% disabled and we never got to travel out west due to his condition. enjoy it all while you can.
