I purchase this less than a year ago for my 2024 Toyota Tacoma short bed. I’m only selling this because I’m converting my Kuat Ibex to topper mode. Looks and functions like new. All set to easily transfer from one Tacoma to the next.
Specs: Part number T-80870
Durable double-walled aluminum...
I do have a backup valve they placed in the truck bed compartment on the passenger side in case my compressor goes out I can hook up a portable compressor.
At what point are the cradles necessary? I did not install them and have had no problems as of yet. Of course, I do have some off road adventures, but nothing extreme.
I had the Wireless One with EZ mount installed on my Tacoma OF to eliminate sag while towing. No other modifications needed. Works perfectly. Better ride quality. The best part is I just push a button to inflate and deflate. Here is a before and after pic.
How do you like your GFC? I was considering that too. I like the openness of windows with a topper. I had a smartcap on my Ranger and liked that, but have heard issues with it on the Tacoma, especially with the rubber seal.
Ok. I have the Kuat Ibex system installed on my truck bed. However, I’m thinking of making it into a topper with the full panel kit. Has anyone does this yet? If so, how has it been from a functional stand point for you?
With many years of experience towing various size campers with different size tow vehicles the limiting factor is always payload capacity of the vehicle. My best guess is the OP has exceeded his payload capacity. The scales don’t lie. Weigh your setup before making any changes.
It’s not going to matter what you’re setup is if your over payload capacity of the tow vehicle and/or the trailer. It puts undue stress on the vehicle and possibly puts your life and the life of others at risk. Weight does matter.
Have you weighed your setup yet? Truck and trailer together and separatly, loaded like you’re on a trip with a full tank of gas. What is your tongue weight on that trailer? Have you exceeded the payload of your truck? No matter what you do to your truck you still need to be within specs of that...
My climate control settings work so well I have not had to use the AC. I tried it once and it was too cold for me. Of course I do prefer open sunroof and windows as I prefer the heat. Sounds like a warranty repair to me.
