I could, but that unnecessarily raises the center of gravity of the vehicle and camper. Campers are already quite a heavy load for mid-sized trucks so keeping the CG low is very helpful.

So it’s obvious the manufacturers don’t have a clue how tall they should make them..you would think when they first start doing R+D that they would take the correct measurements in order to correctly build a product that actually works

The Kimbo was designed around earlier Tacoma models. The 2024 has a higher cab from bed height, and has the roof shark fin. I am already going to have to put a spacer under it to accommodate, even without the fin. The fin gotta go!

I was re-routing cameras today and snapped a pic of the shark fin hardware inside the roof. From this side, not much to it. Somebody should be able to blank this. Question begs where you move the antenna.

I actually welcome the additional topper height on my GFC / definitely anticipating a spoiler of some kind via CaliRaised’s rack/light bar combo or maybe GFC expands on the R1T spoiler for other trucks.
