Expert Answers about Chevrolet Camper Tie-Downs


  • Do Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs Have A Weight Capacity
  • There is no weight capacity for the Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs # HSSF. The tie-down hardware kit # TDHP, that is used to secure the camper to the # HSSF tie-downs has a weight capacity of 3,000-lbs. My contact at Brophy said the tie-downs will handle the camper and the concern would be if the truck capacity was not able to handle it, but with an F-350 you should have no issue. Since the front tie-down is behind the camper tie-down, the rear tie-down must be forward of the camper...

  • Do Brophy Camper Tie-Downs HSWB Have a Camper Weight Limit
  • Brophy Camper Tie-Downs # HSWB do not have a weight rating since they do not support the camper's weight. The truck bed and frame handle that actual camper load and the tie downs provide stability to prevent the camper from shifting in the bed.

  • Do HappiJac Truck-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs LC236326-205221 Have Weight Capacity
  • So there actually isn't any specific weight capacity for the HappiJac Truck-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs # LC236326-205221. These are designed to handle the weight of any truck bed camper, and that's true of any camper tie-down, which is why there isn't a designated weight rating. If a camper can fit the bed of your Ram, the HappiJac tie-downs will safely hold it in place. The only other thing you will need with these tie-downs are turnbuckles, the HappiJac Qwik-Load Turnbuckles # LC182895...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2005 Toyota Tundra Hauling an In Bed Camper
  • To add a set of Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement to your 2005 Toyota Tundra 4WD, you will want item # TTORTUN4. This system is custom fit and has a 6,000 lbs capacity. This are our lightest capacity Timbrens for your truck and are still overkill for a 1,200 lbs camper. A better option would be the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-610-54. These have a 2,800 lbs capacity and only engage when you place weight on the rear suspension. SumoSprings use a system called progressive...

  • How Far Do the Brophy Truck Bed Camper Tie-Downs Stick Out from the Truck?
  • The Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs - Bed Mount - Black Powder Coated Steel - Qty 4 # HSSF will stick out from the bed rail differently for every truck model.

I went out to the warehouse to measure the bracket and from the inside to inside at the widest point it is 10-3/4 inches.

  • In-bed Camper Tie Down Recommendations for a 2009 Dodge Ram 1500
  • The Extang CargoCleats Truck Bed Tie-Down Anchors - Clamp On - 500 lbs - Qty 2 # EX1932, have a weight capacity of 500 lbs each. You will have to also make sure that the straps that you use also have enough strengths for the application. The tie-downs fit underneath the bed rails like in the video I have linked for you. Provided there is nothing in the way they could fit your 2009 Dodge Ram 1500, they are a universal fit, but will not work if you have the OEM bed rail cap installed. Since...

  • Inside Dimension of Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs HSAB
  • I went out to the warehouse to take a look at the Brophy Camp On Camper Tie-Downs # HSAB referenced in your question. From the tie-down where it will clamp onto the inside of the bed rails to the outermost part of the unit, I measured a distance of right at 11-1/2 inches. I have attached an image with this measurement labeled. As long as the jacks on your camper extend out further than this measurement, you will have no interference issues with these tie-downs. I have also attached a short...

  • Camper Tie-Downs For A 2008 Chevy Silverado
  • I spoke with my contact at Brophy and they stated you'll be fine using the Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs - Bed Mount - Black Powder Coated Steel - Qty 4 Item # HSWB as long as the railing on the back of your 2008 Chevy Silverado isn't over 5 1/2" wide on the top side and there needs to be a space of at least 2" wide on the underside of the railing. I've attached an installation video to help you as well. For turnbuckles I recommend the Brophy Basic Turnbuckles w/ Hardware for Camper...

  • Can Brophy Camper Tie Downs Handle a 3,300 Pound Camper in a 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500
  • There is no weight capacity rating on the camper tie downs # HSSF and they will work for any camper size that is properly sized for your vehicle. The associated hardware package # TDHP does have a weight capacity of 3,000 pounds so you wouldn't use it. Instead you could use 2 sets of # TLS9000. Ideally though you would use frame mounted tie downs custom fit for your 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500. If you want to explore that option I have included a link to them for you.

  • Why Does the Length of the Camper Matter When Using Brophy Camper Tie Downs to Install a Camper
  • I spoke with my contact at Brophy and he said that its more about the location of the weight of the camper instead of just overall weight. He also stated that most likely the Camper Tie Down # TDSF would not be the component that would break, but the vehicle would see damage to the stake pockets.

  • What Size are the Inner and Outer Tubes and Wall Thickness of TorkLift Camper Tie Downs
  • The TorkLift camper tie downs you referenced, # TLF2011 and # TLF3001 will have an outer assembly and an inner assembly. Tie down # TLF3001A will too but it has aluminum components. The measurements will be the same for all of these. I pulled # TLF2011 to take the measurements. The inner tube is smaller, 1-1/2 inches square with a wall thickness of 3/16 of an inch. The part of the inner tube that you tie the camper off to is 1/4 inch thick. The outer tube is larger at 2 inches square...

  • Weight Limit For Brophy Camper Hold Down # HSSF On 1995 Ford F-250 Longbed
  • After speaking to my contact at Brophy, she informed me the Brophy Camper Hold Down # HSSF technically does not have a weight range. This product is limited only by the weight capacity of your 1995 Ford F-250, so you will need to consult your vehicle owners guide to find the weight limit of your cargo bed. You will also need to ensure there is at least 2 inches of space between the truck bed interior wall and the lip of the bed in order for the hold downs to fit properly. I have included...
