Ive been trying to figure out where to get these, but just cant find them anywhere! Hoping to find the triangle shaped anchor brackets that are on the camper in the attached picture!

Angle iron, angle grinder, drill press.....DIY seems super easy.

I appreciate those ideas! I figured that Id easily be able to just find that bracket or another similar product designed for truck campers on the internet.  They are not listed anywhere i can find.

Is this considered an acceptable way to tie down a FWC?

Next question, I guess, is what do those brackets attach to? Is it the outer edges of the tub or the aluminum upper structure?

I would think it a better choice than single eye loops, and you would have 2 bolts minimum into the frame, potentially 3 if it is triangular on the horizontal surface. Proper install though would require access to interior framing for bolting through.
