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 off­road). 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.

NOTE: Short bed trucks will use the two factory bolts that currently attach the corner bumper
brackets to the frame (see photo below). Loosen the corner bumper support bracket at the
bumper (both the upper and lower fastener), as this will allow the corner bracket to hinge out
from the frame after removing the two nuts, which attach the corner bracket to the frame.
