HappiJac Truck-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs

Video Transcript for Review of HappiJac Camper Tie-Downs - Front and Rear Tie-Downs - LC182906

Michael: Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're taking a look at the HappiJac Custom Tie-Down Kit for your truck bed camper. This kit is going to allow you to equip your Silverado or Sierra to haul your slide-in camper. It's going to provide the tie-down attachment points so you can secure all four corners of your camper. So you're not going to get any side-to-side, front-to-back, or up and down move movement, which is going to allow your camper to ride a lot smoother.

And you're not going to get as much jostling inside the camper itself.This is a custom-fit kit for your 1999 through 2006 Chevy Silverado Classic and your GMC Sierra Classic. I do recommend checking the fit guide on our product page to ensure that it is going to work with your specific package. This is a direct-to-frame bracket system. So your front brackets here, they're going to mount in between your truck bed and your cab directly to the frame of your vehicle, which is going to give it much more stability and you're not going to have as much top heaviness, or it's not going to sway nearly as much. And just being mounted to the frame, it's going to give you greater peace of mind that it's going to hold up well.You do have these centering guides here that are going to prevent the camper from shifting in the truck's bed.

The rear enters here attached to your truck's bumper. And again, give you the third and fourth connection connecting point to make sure that your camper does not move. Your whole kit is going to include your two front anchor plates, your two guide plates here, your two L-brackets, as well as your two rear anchors here. All the mounting hardware you need to get it installed, including the plastic spacer pieces here and the adhesive to get those mounted. It's also going to include instructions to walk you through step-by-step how to get this all installed, make sure that it's done correctly.Now, there are a couple of things that are not included in this kit.

You are not going to get the stabilizing bar that is required for this kit. You can find that here at etrailer.com using part number LC182971. We've gone ahead and pulled that part here so you can see. This is the part that you are going to need, it is a very long stabilizing bar. If you already have this bar, you can obviously purchase this kit and you'll be most of the way to where you need to be.

If you don't have this bar already, like I said, you can purchase it separately or you can get a kit that's going to include all the hardware here and the stabilizing bar, just by combining the two part numbers here at etrailer. So it would be part number LC182906-182971. And that's going to get you everything that you need except the other component, which is not included in this kit, which is your turnbuckles. Your turnbuckles are going to be what holds your camper down to your tie-down locations.HappiJac offers several different options of turnbuckles to make it easy to get your camper tied down and connected securely. We have those options here at etrailer.com as well. I would recommend picking those up because they are going to work with your system better than just a rope or a bungee cord, whatever you might be tempted to use instead of the turnbuckles. They are especially specially designed with springs, interiors, and different things like that, so that they'll work well with your system and it's not going to create too much tension or anything like that.The metal components of our kit are made of steel. So they're going to hold up well, you're not going to have to worry about them breaking down or anything. This kit is made here in the USA, so you can trust that the quality is held to a high standard. And it is going to come with a one-year warranty from HappiJac. So again, give you a greater peace of mind knowing they stand behind their product, you can trust that it's going to be well made and hold up well for you. That's going to complete our look at the HappiJac Custom Tie-Down Kit for your truck-bed camper..
