My camper reaches 6000 lb with all the souvenirs and even with TL tie-downs I observe the 1.25" tubings pretty carefully.

My front tie-downs were shaped into quite jigsaw puzzle as the frame is bend and twist at the mounting point. Would take me weeks to fabricate something to fit on try-by-error mode.
If you have C&C frame, those might be straight frames and easier to fit.
But once again -rear tie-downs are easy to make, but I did not see any better way than send TL $350 for front set.
