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.

TORKLIFT’S BOLT FISHING GUIDE
Your guide to understanding the installation of our frame mounted tie downs.
Note: The hardware may vary as to
-Coiled End of Bolt Fisher- what is being fished along with the
bolt. In this instance a 1” X 2” plate
washer is being fished along with
the hex bolt. Different applications
may require fishing through various
star washers and flat washers for
example.
Desired Hole on Vehicle (Place the coiled end of the bolt fisher through this
hole).
This side of the Bolt Fisher should come
out of a hole where the required hardware
(for example 1” X 2” plate washer) can pass through.
This bottom example shows the bolt when it’s completely fished through
the vehicle. You may find it easier to keep the bolt fisher attached until
you get the tie down receiver in place so that the bolt doesn’t fall into the
vehicle frame.
WARNING: PULLING TOO HARD ON THE BOLT FISHER CAN RESULT IN
LOST FASTENERS, OR BROKEN BOLT FISHER.

TIEDOWN INSERT INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
On one end of each of your tie down inserts is a triangular plate referred to
by Torklift as a bullet plate. Your tie down inserts should be installed with the
shorter side of the bullet plate facing away from each other, i.e.. The shorter
side of the front insert should point to the front of the truck and the shorter
side of the rear insert should point towards the rear of the truck.
Once installed, attach the TorkLift directional stickers to the face of the
bullet plate on the insert as a reminder.
DRIVERS SIDE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE REAR
IMPORTANT NOTE: Your tie down inserts are designed to have clearance
inside of the receiver. This is to account for road debris, as well as aid in
installation and removal. Some rattle may be expected if the inserts are left
installed while not under load from the camper.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FINISH MAINTENANCE
OF TORKLIFT PRODUCTS
POWDER COATED STEEL:
To keep your Torklift products looking good follow these guidelines. All steel
powder coated Torklift products are sandblasted for maximum adhesion and use a
high quality industrial urethane based powder coat. Due to the extreme, harsh,
undercar environment that your Torklift products live in, (consistently sprayed with
corrosive road chemicals such as salt, and road debris), Torklift does not warranty
the power coated finish.
To minimize corrosion from these factors on powder coated steel products, Torklift
recommends regularly cleaning and inspecting the powder-coated surface and
touching up any affected areas with enamel or urethane based aerosol paint
product. If there are any areas of surface rust, there are also aerosol spray rust
converters available on the market that can be used as a preparation to touch-up
paint application. These finish maintenance products are available at any
automotive parts supplier.
POLISHED STAINLESS STEEL:
Torklift utilizes quality grade 304 stainless steel in our stainless steel polished
products. 304 stainless steel is well known for its anti-corrosive properties.
However, in some environments such as coastal regions or when coming in contact
with some road chemicals, corrosion may occur.
For a quick clean simply use WD40 and a cloth rag. We also recommend occasional
polishing of our polished stainless products to maintain their attractive finish. Use
an approved stainless steel chrome or aluminum mag wheel polish cleaning product,
which can be purchased from any automotive parts supplier.

Frame Mounted Tie Downs
Leading the camper tie down industry in
strength, quality, advanced design and
installation. TorkLift TRUE frame mounted tie
downs are far superior to all tie down
systems available.
The TorkLift system is unique in its design
and is patented. Four independent tie down
points (with no belly or crossbar) working
much like your receiver type trailer hitch as
the inserts are removable allowing the
system to be virtually undetectable when not in use.
They are designed for each make and model to fit tight to the frame so as not to
compromise ground clearance. TorkLift tie downs are not universal ‘one size fits all’
therefore all the problems with correct fit for each particular application have been
eliminated. Original SuperHitch & SuperHitch Magnum

trailers behind your truck and camper. With a max towing capacity of 14,000
lbs.(6350kg) with an extension*, (17,000 lbs.(7711kg) to 20,000 lbs.(9071kg)
