Brophy Slide In Camper Tie-Downs - No Drill Bed Mount - Qty 4
Fast Shipping and product packaging was excellent.
I used these to mount a vintage 1970 Avion C-11 to a 1993 D250. They worked great and were much stronger than I expected - and it was a huge cost savings (and a much more attractive look) than some of the frame mounted options of more than $1000. There were some oddities that I noticed. It was impossible to mount them exactly the way the instructions suggested because of where on the wings near the cab,. The brackets also could not stay on with the camper unloaded because they would hit the jack mounts, meaning they had to me bolted in after the camper was in the truck but before lowering the jacks, making the access to the bolts a frustrating 'feel for it' experience.I'f suggest the manufacturer secure the bolt so that you don't need to hold both sides when tightening/loosening, and also refine it to need less turns to do so. It took me 2 hours to mount the first time, and not much less when removing them with the limited access. The pads also came off in the first use. I gave it a 5 star because I realize there are limited options for older campers and anything universal is going to have issues with some thing - so that's just my input and experience. Overall pretty reasonable for the price and functionality.

Brophy Stake Pocket Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Bed Mount - Qty 4
Put these on my 2002 F350. I have used torklift in the past and could never seem to get the camper (very light, 1100#) from moving around in the bed. I think that was due to the length of the chains and the angles they were at. With the Brophy's everything is good and tight. It can flex a little and sometimes does off road, but it is rock solid like a part of the truck 99% of the time. I have had none of the horror stories about it deforming the bed sides or anything like that. I would buy them again.
These appear to be well-made. I had a hard time drilling the holes, as the tubes that go in the stake pockets are rounded on the side that faces into the bed. The resulting slipped hole broke a couple of the sheet metal screws provided, luckily I had plenty of spares in my misc. hardware bins. The diagram shows both screws per bracket on the inside of the stake pocket. For my 1970 F250, I found it sturdier to do one on the inside, one on the side of each pocket, offset in height a little. Most of the problems I had were my own fault, though, trying to do this by lamplight as it got darker outside. I will point out for future users and to the team that writes the instructions: The instructions are very clear with a good diagram. Many of the other reviews say these twisted or bent on dirt roads, or bigger campers bent them, or they didn't fit the vehicle. There are very clear, concise guidelines about what not to use them on, including "Not for off-road use" The only problem with the instructions was this: For the hex bolts that go from the top through the bed rail, it says to use an 11/32 bit. The bolts provided are only 5/16. 11/32 is bigger than the hole in the brackets for these bolts. A 5/16 bit worked just fine, and was more readily available at my local hardware store. I will add pictures when we go to pick up our camper. For now, these seem more than adequate for the size, weight, and style of truck and camper we use.

TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs - Custom Frame Mount - Rear
The hardest part of the installation was removing the frame bolts from the truck that are reused. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and each piece fit perfectly where it was supposed to go. You don't need to be a mechanic to get these installed, but the proper tools are a must, along with a good chunk of an afternoon.
Kate was very helpful and professional Waiting for notification of my return

Good product ….. Holds in place perfectly…..would recommend
Very well constructed and heavy duty. Liked the idea of no drilling during install. Excellent fit and provided stability safety for upcoming family camping trips with our truck & camper. Would recommend these tie downs for anyone who owned a truck camper set up!

HappiJac Camper Tie-Downs - Custom Bed and Bumper Mount - Front and Rear
After one week on truck, in Southern California, components are discolored and rusting. What’s up?
The only think I didn't like is that the 3/8" frame bolts (connecting to the frames that the truck bed sits on) use lock washers instead of nylon lock nuts (nylocks). I feel these could come loose over time so I used nylocks instead. Otherwise it was a great installation. Installed on a 2007 F250.

HappiJac Camper Tie-Downs - Custom Bed and Bumper Mount - Front and Rear
I put these on my F250 for when I carry my Northstar Camper and they have made an enormous difference, especially in sway. They work!
You should make the front angles a little longer for the top of the frame of the truck but thank you very much all done

HappiJac Camper Tie-Downs - Custom Bed and Bumper Mount - Front and Rear
I never got any of the parts but this stabilizer bar. Where is $[XX] worth of parts. I ordered this stuff 3 weeks ago.
I am extremely happy with this setup. Installation *could* be done by a single person, but would involve A LOT of figuring out special approaches to holding things in place for alignment and tightening. But I had a friend help me and installation went about as perfectly as one would hope for. I have used the oriduct for multiple trips, sone of which were on washboard gravel and dirt roads, and the setup has worked perfectly. My truck camper is a popup and pretty light, and the setup holds the camper in the truck very nicely. I suspect it would work very well even for heavier and larger truck campers, as well. I called support before ordering and was provided with perfect information in a very professional and caring manner. I am 100% satisfied, and highly recommend both this product and etrailer as a company.
What our customers are saying:
"Great product. fast, professional, and well communicated service. it was a pleasure buying from y'all. thanks again"
