Want info on this Kodiak with a Lance 1181

Bolt the raised platform to the camper and to the deck - This will be your permanent mount. You can then leave the turnbuckles in place and call them "stability enhancers" since they tie the outboard side of your structure to the truck but are not then main tie down hardware. Finishing off the open sides in to storage will complete the look, but explaining the attachment method above will show that is not an easy on/off module from the rest of the vehicle. Tie your electrical connections into the truck harness using a junction box instead of a quick connect plug/socket to show your intent of not removing the camper.

Speaking with the people at the inspection station and getting all of their expectations addressed prior to making the official visit will help make this process go smoothly.
