Recommended Camper Tie Downs for 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 Long Bed
Question:
I would like to know what the best camper tie downs to use for my cab over camper. I’m going to tow a boat, so there will be steep boat launches, and our driveway is kinda steep. We have a Dodge Ram 2500, 2 wheel drive diesel, 4 door, original tow hitch, long bed 8 foot. The camper is 8.5 Lance lite 2000 lbs. flush with the back, doesn’t hang over bumper.

I recommend using the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs # TLD2101 and # TLD3109, which are the perfect solution for your 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 with the 8 foot long bed. TorkLift tie downs are high quality parts that have a durable powder coating to keep them in great shape if they're exposed to the elements and these will mount to the frame of the truck instead of the truck bed, so they'll help keep your camper from shifting when backing your boat down the ramp or coming out of your driveway.
I've linked a short review and installation video of these for you to have a look at.
