TC and real off-roading
Who has taken a full-height TC down some nasty roads, or Jeep roads where the truck leans and is at the limits of tipping the camper off or something of the sort? I searched internet (never google)...

D2100 and R3500 are the Torklift models I have. Inserts are 1.5 inches and mounts are bigger.
They are new.
I just finished up putting in the drivers side front. Way easier than I anticipated, even fishing the bolts through was easy. I have Liquid Wrench on the other side bolt - not wanting to sheer the bolt off removing it - waiting…
The new mount is close to my nerf bars and does not hang lower, so I am not worried about it grabbing on something. Of course one that sticks between the bed n cab would not grab either. I dont plan on doing that kind of off-roading with a TC anyway, so no worries here.
Good point about the truck frame. I think the insert would break or bend first though surely, but I never plan to go rock crawling, so it is not a concern.
I have front and rear tie-down springs.
The fun part will be drilling through a class V hitch. 8 holes!
