Camper Tie Downs

I own a 2007 F150 4X4 Supercrew with a 6.5' box and am looking to purchase some camper tie down bars. What are you guys currently running and how do you find them (price/ease of installation)? I will only have this truck until November (lease ends) and plan to buy another F150 so would like to be able to take these bars off and put them onto my new truck. Any suggestions?

I looked into them for my slide-in.

They are a two piece set and super expensive, and where I am, I'd have to wait 8+ weeks to get them, I just use 4 heavy rated tie downs, two attach to my hitch and two attach to the frame by the rear wheels.

Thanks for the info. Do you have any pics on where you are hooking into? Don't the tie downs ride on the body of the truck? I would love to get away with not purchasing the bars for this truck.
