TC Sliding Around in the Bed of Truck

[HadEnough]

Hey guys.

My Arctic Fox seems to be sliding around a lot in the back of the truck.

It has the quality, stainless frame mounted tie downs. 4 stainless FastGun ones.

However, it keeps slipping back due to the awesome power of my Cummins Turbo diesel with Edge performance enhancement and custom exhaust.

Instead of sitting tight up against the rear of the cab, it slips back about a foot. And it's a short bed truck so it's concerning me a bit.

It has the rubber mat under it and the the tie downs are about as tight as I can get them but it still slips back. (doesn't slip forward again... Stays back).

Is this something I should be worrying about?

It's in constant use. I've been touring the country full time for a year.

It slips back a foot?! I would worry.

That is a problem. If your tie downs check out (something has to be amiss) I would go with a LineX spray in bed liner with your rubber mat on top of that. I have a FWC camper that I use on a lot sorta serious 4wd roads and my camper has never moved an inch in five years.

Your tie downs should be at the greatest angle possible,
The front ones should angle from the camper to the front of the truck
The back should angle from the camper to the back of the truck

Your short bed camper slips back a foot? And it concerns you just a bit? LOL Best laugh of today! How far back can it slip before you'd be really concerned? Two feet?
