    Hey guys,
    First post on TW, so be gentle! Lol. I’m finishing up my 1.5 year truck camper build and it’s time to tackle the bolting down to the truck phase. I’ve thought about taking out the bolts near the tailgate that actually hold the bed to the frame and putting them through the floor of the camper. So the camper floor wold be sandwiched between the bolt head (with washers)and the composite bed. Then go with the Brophy tie downs toward the cab end of the bed. Your thoughts or recommendations with this.
    Thanks

    I do. My plan is to finish the build, do a trial camping trip in the mountains, and then do a thread with pics of the build with descriptions, and a video walk through. Hopefully it will be in the next month.
