The fact that the camper has shifted to the side and blown out the front side of the truck bed and has caused it to not sit correctly on the floor of the truck bed is the likely result of why the bed is collapsing.
Do you have a rubber truck bed mat to help keep the camper from sliding around in the bed?
What kind of camper tiedowns are you using, Torklift frame mounted or something else?
What are you using between the camper tiedown anchors and the truck's camper tiedown points - turnbuckles or Torklift fast guns?
I've never seen the side of a truck be blow out like yours has. Id say the camper keeps shifting that way and causing the problem.
The only fix is to replace the truck bed, or the truck, and stop the camper from shifting to the right side of the truck bed so it doesn't blow out the bed side again.
