Can we make a smartcap work?

I’m really interested in the Smartcap. Currently have just an old ARE shell now. I have someone selling a Smartcap for a 3rd gen( I believe) at a reasonable-ish price. Wondering if there is anyway to make it reliably work on our trucks. Both are double cab short beds. Anyone know how much of a size difference there are in the beds? Any other ideas on making it work properly? Thanks!

Short answer is you would need to do some gerryrigging
