I'm asking about experience people have had installing strut brackets. As the title suggests, I'm considering all 3 methods. While thru bolting is probably the strongest, is it necessary? Are any of you having issues with self tapping not saying tight or pulling out? 3rd option I'm considering, is to drill and tap the camper for the bracket screws(not ball studs) but if the plate isn't at least 3/16" thick, that option isn't viable. What say ye.
