Torklift Camper Tie Down Recommendation to Fit 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Double Cab Short Bed

Question

Question:

Hi, I have a 2018 Chevrolet 2500hd double cab 6 1/2 foot short bed truck. I thought I could get tork lift frame mounts, but from what I can find they dont make them for my short bed double cab. Kinda depressing. Question is what tie down if any is there that would be capable of holding up to a 4,000 lbs truck camper. The camper I had in mind will probably be 3500 fully loaded but want extra strength for safety. So what do you recommend?

We do carry Torklift Tie Downs that fit your 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500HD short bed, double cab. For that you'd want the part # TLC2223 for the front and then for the rear # TLC3215. These are custom fit for your truck and by far the best solution we have.

Lance does have a proprietary plug, but many customers see a standard 6-way or 7-way round and notice it doesn't fit their factory 7-way as well. I've attached an article to help if you have one of the 7-way or 6-way round connectors which we…

The current Torklift tie down part #TLD3101 that you have installed on your 1997 Dodge Ram 3500 only fits if you have the factory hitch. If you go with the SuperHitch part #TLD1100 you would need to change your rear tie down to the part #TLR3503.

Yes, the #TLD2142 is exactly what you need for your 2019 Ram 3500 with running boards extending under the truck bed. For the rear, you need the #TLD3112 if you have the factory hitch or #TLR3510 if you have the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum 30K.

The proper extension for your setup would be the one that allows you to have clearance of your hitch mounted accessory and also allows you to still be able to pull the steps down. If the receiver tube sticks out past the camper too far then you will…

It sounds like the purpose of getting the air helper spring would be to counteract the 1 inch compression you're getting in your rear suspension caused by the pin weight of your 5th wheel. If that's the case, I believe that the AirLift 5000…

There is not a plug and play adapter for your Lance connector that we are aware of. Typically this is installed by the Lance dealer. A junction box/7-way plug kit like #HS381-9000 is an option you have to convert the camper to match the 7-way RV…
