Anyway, it's on both sides of bed. At about the same intensity.
I did bolster the tail of the camper for a while, to stop movement, but I think it just made it worse, as the forces were increased on the trail of the bed, rather than just letting it rock around on the rubber mat.
Next time it's going to be an F550 or Ram 5500. I blame the aluminum bed currently.
It looks like you're using bed-mount tie-downs. An aluminum bed, heavy camper, and bed-mount tie-downs sounds like a recipe for these kinds of damages. I'd switch to frame mount to prevent further damage, or use this as an excuse to buy a flat bed with storage boxes.
