The best option I have for you to carry bikes with a truck bed camper attached is on the front of the vehicle with a front mount hitch. The Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65080 is a confirmed fit for a 2008 Toyota Tundra and what I recommend. Then, you can use a bike rack like the Hollywood Racks RV Rider 2 Bike Platform Rack part # HLY 64FRto secure the bikes.
