    EDITED: I still have a bed cover from a 15 crewmax I can throw on, but im pretty sure it's a couple of inches wide. I don't have the backflip mounting rails though.

    still need a width between the bed rail caps though.

    I'd like to think you're opening your options to some of these "overland" or nicer camper like RSI

    I’ve never bought one, but I seem them all around town. Maybe an electrical supplier?

    I when I am hopping around fishing spots, I roll the window down a bit and have a hanger for the butt end of the rod in the topper. 10’ doesn’t reach the front row seat.
    Something like you posted would be nice to have them strung when you leave the house, though.

    8k for gen 1 Go Fast Camper currently on a 2006 double cab. Price seems a little high for an old GFC, but you don't see very many of them for 1st gens. GFC 1st Gen.jpg

    Yeah not sure which is correct, or where he measured. It does say it came off of a 2000 Tundra.

    hmmm. I saw one for sale on the actual GFC forum a while back for only 6k and it had all the same mods, though that one was for sale in Florida and not the ToyoBro state of CO.

    When I first saw how expensive those GFC campers are, considering they're just a normal topper with a couple of struts on the roof, I was bewildered. Wanted one for a good while, but it's just not worth it when you could get an actual used camper for the same price...

    No such luck, they use RC for regular cab, EC for access cab, DC for double cab, as shown here from their documentation, with LB for long bed, SB for short bed, XS for xtra short bed, maybe?
    It's really hard to read the damn serial plate on that advert, with the model number etc. but below is a touched up enlarged version from the ad.

    Follow up... I finally have my answer. 3rd gen double cab short bed outside bed measurements are not as close to out FGT AC as I would have hoped. From the furthest outside point of the bed rail, they measure approx 69.5" wide and 82" long. So much for something from a 3rd gen fitting the FGT :(
