Ford F-250 and F-350 Heavy Duty Camper Tie-Downs Installation And Review Videos

TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs Installation - 1997 Ford F-250- Video

Today on our 1997 Ford F250 Heavy Duty, we're going to be installing the TorkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs for the rear of the vehicle, part number TLR3501. Here's the tie-down receiver that we're going to need to mount to our vehicle's hitch. You want to try to put it as far back on the hitch in the vehicle as possible, but yet you also have to keep in mind that you want to make sure it doesn't interfere with things. Like back here, we wouldn't able to drill our four holes, but right in this area here, on the other side we have plenty of room to drill through and not hit anything, as well as to install our hardware. We also want to make sure that the insert right here, when you put the insert into your receiver, that it will clear the body of the vehicle, which it will. We're going to go ahead and hold our piece up into position. We're going to take a paint marker and mark the four holes that we'll need to drill. Now when drilling out the holes, we will use the step drill bit method by starting smaller and then working our way up to a 7/16ths drill bit. more
