    In search of the "perfect" camper frame

    I did this by making some mini "ISO' locks. The female portion welded into the camper frame. The male portion stayed in a socket in the flatbed. When camper was not on flatbed, the male part fit down into a recess so as to not be in the ways. They worked well.

    They are from Southco. Requires a 2” hole. They have them with keyed locks as well. I have them on my electrical box, but am switching to the keyed units for safety. Pay attention to ones you order as there are different model numbers for for thickness. Doors close with satisfying clunk.
