If your truck comes with a factory hitch without a running board, you will need these two items:

TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Front, part # TLF2007
TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Rear, part # TLF3001

If your truck comes with a factory hitch with running boards under the bed, you will need these items:

TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Front, part # TLF4007
TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Rear, part # TLF3001

The second option has the same rear tie-down, but the front tie-down is different. Both have a powder coated steel construction to resist rust and corrosion.

You will also need turnbuckles. I am a fan of the TorkLift FastGun Turnbuckles for Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Stainless Steel - Gray - Qty 2, part # TLS9522, because they do not have to be manually tightened.

I have included product description links, video review links, and a weblink about installing a camper below.
