Wolf Creek 850 roll over story

So in this case a frame-mounted tie down on the rear probably would have saved this camper from going airborne.

If this is correct then our friends at HappiJac are possibly incorrect. A contributing factor is a HJ issue due to thier attachment points on the weak bumper that is not strong enough and should not have been used as an attachment point. Culability is shared and it perhaps is not totally a Northwood issue after all. If Sleepy is correct, and he likely is, then having the camper tie downs too tight when going over a bump but not necessarily too tight standing still, could also contribute to the tie down failing in the camper. I still maintain it is the combination of a chain of events that basically was the perfect storm in this case. Torklift tiedowns might well have saved the day. In my mind a bumper attachment because that bumper attaches to the frame is not a frame mounted tie down. I have had both HJ and TL and hands down TL is a far superior and much stronger tie down system. All four corners go directly into the frame of the truck.
