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.
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.
