We hope to be picking up a used Fleet. Ahead of having the custom tie-downs installed how to we securely attach the camper to our Nissan Frontier. Apologies if this is a super dumb question.
Newbie needs to know what to expect picking up a Fleet

It is exactly the right question to be asking !
Others will chime in but you might start by verifying the camper size will fit... particularly between your Nissans wheel wells and
the side rail height.
Also, depending on how far you are travelling to retrieve the camper, are your truck rear tires up to the load ?
Good luck !

Sue you might contact Marty at ATC for tie down mounting positions. Enjoy your new camper.

We tried Timbren SESs but they sagged after about a week loaded.
We have Torklift frame mounted tie downs in front with chain and turnbuckles with Happijac buttons in the rear fender again just chain and turnbuckles
Post some pics when you get it and let me know if I can answer any Frontier related questions.
