Correct TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs for a 2020 Ram 3500 with Factory Hitch 8' Bed

Question

Question:

Im looking to build a slide-in camper and figure out a way to attach it to the truck w/ Torklift Tie-downs [ or another option]. Ive got a new 2020 Ram 3500 SRW w/ 8 box and factory trailer hitch [ round pipe on hitch]. The frame is a 2 3/4 w x 6 h tube instead of the old c channel frame. Is there a Torklift bracket that will fit front and rear? There arent any factory-drilled holes in the rear other than the 4 horizontal holes for the trailer hitch bolts. The front has some punched six-sided holes for compression nuts. Thanks,

The correct TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs for a 2020 Ram 3500 with factory hitch and 8' bed is part # TLD3112 for the rear and part # TLD2140 for the front. This is a direct bolt-on fit option with no drilling required. In order to attach the tie-downs to the truck bed camper you can use the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles part # TLS9522-2-LK.

If you are looking for tie-downs for the camper, we do offer the TorkLift Camper Anchor Relocation Kit part # TLA7004.
