CL Torklifts, Will they work for my F250

[n0m4d]

I picked up a 2016 F250 CC SB and before buying a new set, I have been trolling CL to see if any used ones are hanging around. Would anyone happen to recognize these and know if they are a fit for my truck. I did send the seller a note asking for the model #.



I tried to match up google images with the picture from the ad but there seems to be several styles of these that show up in my results.

Having just gone through this with my 2016 CC SB truck, you have to be careful. The part numbers change due to cab and sometimes bed length.

What he said.
Torklift Application Guide
Bed length and cab size make a difference. That info isn't included in the sellers CL ad.

A few reasons, I find that people here have been helpful and nice and I like to participate in forums. Many of the members here have experience installing and reinstalling Torklift setups. When I looked up the vehicle on TL's site, some of the matches looked similar to the ones in the ad and some did not. Also, it would be less likely for TL to tell me how to hack their products for off-application use (if that was what I was asking, which I was not).

I had a simple question for those who have installed front TL mounts on their Super Duty Crew Cab Short Bed, did they look like the ones in the picture? The answer was no. I since got a confirmation from the seller that they were for a long bed. That's all I needed and I very much appreciate the responses I got.

I'm new here so if I'm breaking protocol when I ask people here about a commercially manufactured product, just let me know and I'll only deal directly with that manufacturer in the future.

Why would you ask that here and not call the helpful people who manufacture them for the correct answer? Call them, maybe the difference is so minor all it would take is a drill to make it work. Maybe not, but at least you'll know.

Curious what listing was for- says 99-11 Ford but not even close to whats on our 01 F250. To bad picture doesn't show- model# is right there on the cover of instructions.

Those look different than what I recently put on my 2016. Different sized holes. I installed mine myself, so I got a good look at them.

They look different than mine which are for a 6 3/4 bed. Mine mount to the front spring perchs on the front.

The frame mounts are frame-specific so if they come from different model, you won't be able to use them.
You can redo the rears, who usually go to rear hitch bar, but no way you will be able to adapt fronts.
Go to TL site and enter the truck the seller has and then yours.
See if the TL numbers will match. Slim chance, but sometimes you can get lucky
I am can fabricate and weld steel and last February picking up new truck did not want to spend $650 for few lb of steel.
So I was able to fabricate rear ties with material I had in my garage, but for front I spend the money on new TL.

I think we are on the same page. I actually am re-purposing a rear set already and I'm not bothering with the ones listed on CL as I'm pretty certain they will not fit. I will likely go new, just was looking to see if any used ones were hanging around since the f250 was generally unchanged for so many years. Thanks!

I got a message back from the seller to let me know that they were from a truck with an 8' bed. I'm going to assume that the front's would be different for a truck with 6.75' bed and move on. I think the ones I'm looking for are kinda forked to go under/behind and over the shackle.

Look up the truck model shown Below picture.
Record model number.
Look up your truck. Will they fit?

Since torklift eliminated price competition even if 1/2 of them fit it may still be a deal. Check prices
