    Don't think it would be possible. My Waterport sets above the bed using the factory Waterport Mount. If you fashioned your own Mount then yes it should be possible.

    I would choose a low bedrack and RTT if I had a choice between the two. For sure!

    If I go with a bed rack, it'll be the RCI that's the same height as the cab. That way if I want to swap it to the truck, it'll match with the eventual Martin camper rack I'll buy. I want things to be modular so I can use it on both if wanted/needed. :D

    I'm gonna continue forward with the camper shell I think. I don't have much in it and if it doesn't work...….I'll change plans. At the very least, I can try a few camp sessions with it before putting solar and A/C money into it.

    It's not much different than these. Other than the fact it's gonna have a huge flat spot to pull against :rofl:

    I'd still prefer a bed rack and RTT! That camper looks out of place on a newer truck in my opinion.

    Mine will be a trailer :D Good thing is, I can use the camper shell and change if need be. I think that'll be the cheaper route.


    We got O'Charleys tonight

    I want a custom offroad trailer or tear drop trailer one day. Something I can tow onto the trails, or drop off at a camp spot.

    That's what mine will end up as. I have a utility trailer if needed, so the Taco camper will just be for camping and stuff like that. I'll be around 3K when done. A LOT cheaper than I could have bought one for...…….plus it matches the truck :rofl: :rofl:

    I think it will be awesome to have a Taco bed as a trailer.

    Was a waiter at O’Charleys in high school. I probably spent more time eating the rolls than I did doing my job.

    Stock as all get out.
    Alright guys I need some advice, just purchased some King 2.5 ext travel coilovers. Should I still use my taco lean spacer or adjust preload accordingly?
