Warnings
Truck Bed and Camper Protection
Torklift does not recommend installing your camper on top of a
plastic bed liner (or other compressible material such as foam).
These materials can act as a spring, causing increased vertical truck
camper movement independent of the vehicle. Plastic bed liners can
slide on the truck bed surface, and the truck camper can slide on top
of the bed liner. Using a plastic bed liner or similar compressible
material will void your warranty and may additionally cause truck
bed and/or camper damage.
Minor movement or settling can occur in some incidental harsh
driving conditions (on or off-road). A rubber bed mat is
recommended to protect the truck bed and camper, but is not a
requirement to maintain the Torklift legendary lifetime warranty.
Suspension
To significantly reduce body roll, sag and sway Torklift strongly
recommends the StableLoad. Torklift International StableLoads
improve safety, handling, and to help level your truck. More
information can be found at (www.Torklift.com/stableload).
If your truck is additionally equipped with suspension air bags
Torklift cautions against over pressurization as this may lead to
unsafe vehicle handling characteristics. We have found that airbags
used in conjunction with StableLoads have allowed operators to
lower air bag pressure by 50% or more. Only pressurize suspension
air bags enough to level the truck.

Step 1:
Locate the area of install directly above the forward most
leaf spring hanger on the passenger side of the vehicle.
Begin by using the two supplied bolt fishers to fish one
1/2”-13 x 1-1/4” Grade 5 Bolt with one 1/2” Star washer
through holes 1 and 2 as shown. Reference photo 1.1 and
the bolt fishing guide at the end of this instruction booklet.

Step 2:
With the threads of the two 1/2”-13 x 1-1/4” Grade 5 bolts
sticking out of the frame, place the Rear Side Plate over
the bolts by pulling the bolt fishers through each hole in
the Rear Side Plate. The key holes in the plate should be
facing the ground. Remove one bolt fisher and install one
1/2” Flat washer, one 1/2”Lock Washer and one 1/2”-13
Hex Nut onto the bolt. Leave hand tight at this time.
Remove the remaing bolt fisher and install the same
hardware onto the second bolt. Reference photo 2.1 for
the proper plate orientation and hardware installation.
Leave hardware hand tight at this time.

Step 3:
Reuse the two supplied bolt fishers to fish one 1/2”-13 x 1-
1/4” Grade 5 Bolt with one 1/2” Star washer through
holes 3 and 4 in the vehicle frame. Place the Front Side
Plate over the bolts by pulling the bolt fishers through each
hole in the Front Side Plate. The key holes in the plate
should be facing the ground. Remove one bolt fisher and
install one 1/2” Flat washer, one 1/2”Lock Washer and
one 1/2”-13 Hex Nut onto the bolt. Remove the remaing
bolt fisher and install the same hardware onto the second
bolt. Reference photo 2.1 and leave hardware hand tight.
Step 4:
Lift the battery tray up into place between the two side
plates so that the bolt studs stick through the keyhole
slots. Clamp the side plates against the battery tray to
properly align all the parts. Alternately, install one 3/8”
fender washer and one 3/8” nylock hex nut onto one of
the protruding studs on each side of the battery tray.
Tighten until the side plates are flush with the battery tray
but not clamped tightly in place.
Figure 4.1

Step 5:
With all three parts properly aligned, tighten the four 1/2”
hex nuts securing the side plates to the vehicle frame.
Remove the battery tray from the keyhole slots once the
side plates are secure. This can be done by removing the
clamp or loosening the two 3/8” nylock hex nuts used in
step four.
Torque the four 1/2” hex nuts to 55 ft-lbs.
At this point, the installation should look like photo 2.1 on
the previous page.
Step 6:
Place the supplied Battery Box on top of the Battery Tray
and slide it all the way to the side that has the four holes in
the bottom, leaving approximately 3/8” between the
battery box and the bent up flange on the tray. Mark and
drill four holes in your Battery Box that line up with the
Battery Tray. Install one ¼”-20 x 1” Hex Bolt with one ¼” x
1- ¼”Fender Washer through each of the four holes from
the inside of the box outward through the battery tray.
Secure them with one ¼” Flat Washer, ¼” Lock washer
and ¼” Hex Nut. Tighten each hex nut until the lock
washer is pressed flat, and then one additional quarter
turn. Refer to figure 6.1 on the next page for the correct
Battery Box mounting.

Figure 6.1
Step 7:
Place your battery inside the Battery Box and connect the
battery cables (not included) to the appropriate battery
terminals. Two 50amp quick disconnect terminals are
included in the kit to make installation and removal of the
battery tray easier. Use the supplied strap to secure the
lid closed. One 50amp terminal should be hanging outside
the box by a short length of wire. This will connect to the
vehicle side of the wiring once the battery tray is installed.

Step 8:
With you Battery Box bolted onto your Battery Tray and
the battery installed, lift the assembly up between the side
plates and lock the tray into the keyhole slots. Secure the
battery tray in place with two 1/4” Pin and clips.
Install one 3/8” x 1- 1/2” Fender Washer and one 3/8”
Nylock Hex Nut onto each of the four protruding studs.
Refer to photo 6.1 for the completed installation.
Torque all four 3/8” Nylock Hex Nuts to 20 ft-lbs

At this time, you have completed the installation.

Battery Charging Wire Diagrams
To test if you have a factory battery separator, use a
voltmeter or a 12V test light to test for key on/ key off
positive power at the RV Plug. See RV Plug Diagram on next
page.
NOTE: Wire color is going to vary from manufacturer to
manufacturer which is why you should always wire by
function and use a Volt Meter or a 12V test light when
wiring. There is no official industry standard for wire color.
If you are trying to wire by matching colors, there is a very
good chance that it will be wired incorrectly. Be sure to
test each wire to ensure you are wiring for the correct
function.
