Torklift tiedowns

Looking to purchase another TC and going to order the torklift tiedown system. Have used Happi jac system for 5 years in past but do not want to drill into new trucks bumper and bed. My plan was to just but the tiedowns for truck and then purchase the torklift super hitch next april. Shows that I may need a different rear torklift tiedowns with super hitch. I might tow our car next may to our seasonal destination, have not decided yet. Torklift guide states D2124 (31) for fronts and D3109 or may need R3507 in rear with super hitch for 2015 ram 3500 CTD DRW Long bed. Can I buy the R3507 for super hitch now and super hitch later or purchase both at same time? Going to try to call them today.

    I flat tow a jeep behind a 920 Lance and 3500 drw with the factory hitch. I use an aprox 24"-28" Curt, I think extension. 2 1/2" on truck end and 2" for tow bar.

    If you do that then you would end of having 2 sets for the rear if I get what you are saying. Personally, I would go and bite the bullet and get the superhitch with the correct tie downs that bolt into the hitch, then you are done. Pricey but well worth it. Our tiedowns were not included with the superhitch.

    I think the Super hitch design has the rear tiedowns included.

    If you are going to flat tow, the hitch that comes with your truck is more than enough. I flat tow with the OEM hitch, and have since 2004.

    I recently added a Curt (about $250) 2250 lb tongue weight capacity hitch, but not needed to flat tow. I have a 4+foot stinger and want capacity to tow a trailer.
