Happijac Tiedown vs. Torklift Tiedown
I don't want to start a war, but I have two simple questions that requires simple answers. I don't even want to know the WHY of your answer. Just a SIMPLE survey. How many Torklift tiedown owners...

I have had both on two different trucks with the same camper. The HappiJacks lasted over 150K miles and I have no complaints. On that truck I have an aftermarket rear bumper so the little buttons that the rears tie onto are solid as a rock.
On the new truck the rear bumper looks flimsy as anything I'ver seen and I have no plans to mount another 250 pound bumper on the back of that truck, so I elected to go with the Torklift frame mounts and Fastguns on the front. Only beef I have with that setup is that I have to remove the fastgun on the fuel tank side whenever I fill up, but it's easy. The truck in general *feels* a bit more secure with the Torklifts, but that might have to do with the new truck being an F-350 as opposed to the old truck being an older F-250.
