How to: DIY Wedge Camper

So is the recommended gap for Tacomas 2" between camper and cab roof? Or are you adjusting for a larger gap?

 

Measured mine. It's about 5/8" of an inch from the bolt to the metal. The sign material is 7/8" from the metal roof.

Ripcord has a scuff on his roof from the bolt. Reportedly from some sweet jumps.

 

Wow that is close. I was budgeting about 2” gap from the lowest rail to the metal. I suspect that would be 1.5” after alupanel and bolt heads.

Anybody have a source in SoCal for 1530 and 1545 extrusion? I’m having a hard time sourcing 2 10ft sections of both without having to pay freight from 8020.
Otherwise have also been considering joining two 5’ sections..

 

I would measure how much twist your truck has as every truck is different. The Tacoma has a ton of twist, enough that I've had folks ask me if something was broken when following me on trails, however my Gladiator has at most 3/8 inch of twist. Barely even noticeable.
