Manufacturer Says this is OK
I drew the 'wavy' red line where the manufacturer says the COG is located. They also say this TC is designed for LWB or SWB 3/4 Ton and higher trucks. Would you do this? Yes, it does ha...

I am used to seeing the rear tie downs at an opposite angle to the front and not in the same direction.
Agreed, with both tie downs angled in a similar forward direction this would cause the camper to be able to slide forward in the bed. Since the back wall of the bed is in the way it will lift in the back and dip on the cab over point. Probably not enough to do any damage to the truck but maybe a little to the camper, but sure will make for a scary ride on all but the smoothest surface!
hmmm...maybe with HJ's as they are tied to rear bumper.
With both our campers and frame mounted TL's they were mounted in this orientation. The TC is always loaded against the front bed wall so both front/rear tie-downs are holding the camper forward as well as down.
Why would you want to pull the camper away from front bed wall?
Am I missing something?
