How to Install the TorkLift Frame Tie-Downs Part TLD2132 on a 2018 Ram 3500

Question

Question:

Hi have checked for installation holes in the frame under my truck and do not see any pre drilled holes or an area of the frame where this tie down could mount or fit. Can someone contact me and help me figure this out. Part # TLD2132 Maybe there is another video showing the installation on to the frame but I could not find one.

The TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs part # TLD2132 for your 2018 Ram 3500 do not use any pre drilled holes in the frame rail nor do they require any drilling. These are a unique set of camper tie-downs in that they use hooks to sandwich themselves around the leaf spring bracket. I have attached a photo which shows the top mount hook for you as well as the installation instructions.

These can be tricky to install so I urge you to take your time and look over the mounts carefully. Unfortunately, neither we nor Torklift has an install video of these tie-downs at this time.

It sounds like the 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 you are getting has the short bed. In that case, yes, you definitely want the sliding 5th wheel hitch for clearance. The good news is you will not need to purchase the entire B&W Companion #BWRVK3775.…

Seal 171255UC has an inner diameter of 1.719 inches and outer diameter of 2.565 inches. A seal that has those dimensions would actually be #58846. I've added a link to a video review of this seal for you to take a look at.

M12-1.5 and 1/2"-20 threads are not going to be interchangeable. The diameter of an M12 thread is only going to be 0.4724" while 1/2" threads are going to be 0.500" in diameter. We currently only have 1/2"-20 Lug Nuts…

The 7290 that you see is a casting number. It is found on AL-KO hubs that fit #99 spindles. I found that the bearings used are #28580 which would be the inner bearing and #25580 which would be the outer bearing. For the seal use #91030.

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…

Answer 12

The factory prep package or pucks are not the same between Ram, GM and Ford. The spacing is all different which means you cannot use a 5th wheel hitch for Ram pucks on a GM with pucks. Take the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for example which is…
