    Very nice! Will that shell hold a rooftop tent, or racks for more storage?
    You plan on sleeping on the deck inside the shell or tent camping?
    I'm in the planning stages and debating between a shell or a rack for a RTT.

    OnespeedTRD, We are building a camping trailer that will hold a roof top tent. We are having a 5x8 utility trailer built with a side swinging gate and a flipped axed to accommodate bigger tires. I'll be adding tires and wheels for the trailer, along with racks and a few other small mods. I'll post a picture of it with the truck when we have it together. Everything should be arriving in a few weeks. If it's just me camping with friends or me and my son, we will sleep in the camper shell (main reason I went with a double cab instead of a crew cab was so I could sleep in the camper shell).

    One thing to keep in mind, if you mount an RRT to a camper shell, you will take a pretty big hit to your MPG, which is why most people opt for a low profile rack in the bed of the truck to mount it. You can also get a 3.5'x5' utility trailer, flip the axel, add some racks, and then have a small RRT trailer you can just hook up to and go. You should check out reddit.com/r/rooftoptents.

    Bumper, lights, and winch are installed!

    Winch: WARN VR Evo 10 (WAR103252)
    Semi-Hidden Bumper: WARN Winch Mount (WAR103209)
    Lights: Rigid 6" 360-Series (RIG36200)
    Bumper Shims: Coachbuilder Front Bumper Shim Kit

    To fit the bumper shims and the semi-hidden bumper we had to replace the stock flange bolts with 2" long Grade 8 3/8" Flange Bolts

    Ha! Just went through this yesterday! Warn semi-hidden/Evo10s on a '21. Didn't do it myself, but the shop called and said the studs were too short, but that you got an extra 1/4" from the bumper itself. Decent clearance before, so I didn't replace the studs... Hope I don't regret it! Pick it up tomorrow.

    Yeah I thought about just using a single shim instead of two. I emailed David at Coachbuilder before hand and he told me exactly what I needed to do to get them all to fit. You probably saved yourself a couple hours of labor.

    Unfortunately, you are correct.. I was checking for Toyota tundra overland options and the Cali Raised Bed rack caught my attention... I can say it is a good price for a bed rack..... at first I was looking at the Leitner Bed Rack but the price is crazy lol.

    I have an RCI rack that I no longer use that is in excellent condition. I don't know where you are located or which truck model you have but if everything works out and you can use it..... PM if you are interested.
