Hey y’all,
I am starting to plan for my trip out to Montana from Maine. I always carry a mechanics set, but I’m curious if there are GFC-specific tools, bits, etc., I should add to my tool roll. I like to be prepared for everything haha.

Hello JCP,
YES, a set of SAE T-Handle Hex Key Allen Wrench Set. You can just about work on anything on the GFC with a set.
Have fun!

You probably already have it in your mechanic set, but it’s good to have a 1/2” wrench or socket to retighten the four bolts mounting it to the truck (at least for a Tacoma). They’ll explain at the install but the camper can slightly settle when first driven so you might need to tighten a bolt or two.

Do you know what thread pitch they are? I kinda want to have 2 nuts per bolt so one doesn’t back off
They are bolts going into T-nuts in the Tacoma bed rails, so no opportunity to add a second nut. But I think you’re only supposed to have to do it once really. I’ve double checked mine a couple times and they’ve stayed tight.
Looks like the bolts are 5/16-18.
