    CMC’s still going down? I’m in five points work 7-5 Monday to Friday with one week day off a month. Could come down the 23rd of April but would need to wait on it, lame i know. What’s the best way to get in contact and coordinate this?

    No but a light bar mount might be in order for it.

    Any ideas on how to fortify these? Stretched them a tad with the camper.

    Replace them with bed stiffeners?

    Potentially... Need to think about how the load and unload process might effect the fit. Its pretty tight once the camper is sitting in there, to the edge of the bed mat and to the inside of the wheel well. They used up every inch of clearance. Didn't know if a steel rod welded to the same spot through the bed to the frame would work with a tie down on top.

    Bolts appear good, possibly the metal it's screwed into pulled up. Have no idea how to best address this. May have to just keep rolling as is. If it threads fine and don't see any failures, should continue to work. May just replace bolts and hangers. If any ideas come to mind let me know. Sorry for the odd ball question.

    its a pain, but you can remove that bolt from thise rings and
    the bolt looks fine. I’d be willing to bet the nut on the bottom moved.
    Might be able to remove that bolt and install a longer bolt/new nut with a large washer to help spread the load out.

    Sounds good. I have the bolt size from that thread and large high grade washer underneath if I can budge the nut. Thanks.
