HappiJac Frame-Mount Camper Tie-Down & Stabilizer Bar Parts Guide

HappiJac direct-to-frame camper tie-down systems use truck-specific front support braces, rear anchors and a stabilizing bar to help locate and secure a truck camper. The FT-UT9 and FT-DR10 mounting kits fit different truck configurations, while the USB-010, SB-020 and SB-080 stabilizers have different lengths and applications. Identify the original system before ordering individual parts.

Choose the correct tie-down system

Important: FT-DR10 is specified for certain Ram pickups but excludes RamBox and short-bed dually configurations. Similar trucks may use different hardware. Match the year, bed construction and mounting instructions before ordering; the stabilizing bar should be selected by the actual tie-down system, not just its length.

USB-010 (182971) — 59¼-inch stabilizing bar

Single 59¼-inch bar used with specified FT-UT9/FT-CG9 frame-mount arrangements. It is not a substitute for a different bar length simply because the truck has a similar bed.

What is supplied with a frame-mount kit?

The complete FT-UT9 and FT-DR10 kits include two front support braces with brackets, two rear anchors with brackets, and the installation hardware. The stabilizing bar and the four camper-to-truck turnbuckles are not included. A replacement bar contains a single bar rather than another complete mounting kit.

How to identify a replacement stabilizer

Check the part number on the original kit or instructions, then measure the existing bar and look at its mounting-hole positions. The USB-010 is 59¼ inches, SB-020 is 57¼ inches and SB-080 is 56⅞ inches. Even small length differences can prevent the front mounting assembly from aligning correctly. The FT-DR10 is a separate application; use its specific instructions to identify the matching bar.

Complete the camper-to-truck connections

The front and rear mounting anchors still need correctly selected camper turnbuckles. See the HappiJac Qwik-Load and standard turnbuckle guide to compare front, rear and quick-release options. Check the truck's camper-loading instructions, use the fastening torque values in the applicable HappiJac manual and inspect each mounting point before travel.
