If you go to Home Depot or Lowe’s they sell 2- 3 inch thick foam insulation in the building materials department. I measured the width and length of the bed and used a saw to trim to accurate dimensions. It provides enough lift to get up and over the Chevy rounded portion of the bed. I’ve had it...

Oops I made a mistake. They are E rated tires.

1/2 ton Silverado, E rated tires. That's great gas mileage your getting in your rig. Is it diesel or gas?

After looking through this whole thread I still have some questions. When I had my firestone ride-rite installed by a dealer I was told to keep 60psi in while fully loaded for my 13 silverado with Nitto terra grappler g2 285/65/18 tires. Long story short after reading through everyone's...

haha would love to see this update.

I'm in the same boat for with newborn coming and a 2 year old. We were thinking of putting some bumpers and barriers up top, but it's become a jungle gym for the 2 year old. I'll update you if we come up with any solutions.

I plugged mine in as well before sliding the camper in.

Looks Awesome! Can you add the open end tie does as an aftermarket piece to the Yakima rack?

I don't have the room for store my Hawk inside my garage during the winter months. It usually doesn't get below freezing in the Paso, CA Area. That being said, my Hawk now lives on my Chevy Silverado outdoors year round. I was looking to invest in quality car/ camper cover. Anyone have any...

How did it workout?

I ended up buying a used 18 Hawk in PHX this weekend. After reading through countless posts, I felt like I had enough info picking it up and putting it on the truck. Before the trip, I ended up having 10/40 Overland in Riverside Co. install Firestone Rite Ride Airbags and having them put in...

Got my Hawk home safe from PHX. Thanks for the help and advice.

I ended up going with the foam under the hawk. This is how it sits after lifting the jacks. Thank you everyone for the advice!

Thanks for the input everyone. I picked up my hawk and ended up going with the 2 inch foam in the bed as a platform. Worked out great.

Driving back through Joshua Tree

Digging up old posts for a new Hawk owner. Picking up a 18 Hawk this weekend for my 13 silverado. Did any of these modifications workout?

Did you ever end up finishing the project? I'm about to pick up my Hawk with a 13 Silverado that does not include the 'chevy notch' in it. Curious to see what needs to be modified for it to sit in the bed.

Not to hijack the thread but this video from four wheel camper shows the hawk protruding a little past the tailgate (not flush) with the end of the bed. Do you guys think this is to accommodate the "Chevy Notch"of the truck bed? Apparently Chevy is the only truck that has a rounded edge near the...

Hey quick ? For anyone still following this thread. I have a 13 Silverado 1500 and was told I need to build a platform with 2x4’s to accommodate fitting a 2018 hawk. Has anyone with a Chevy/GMC 6’5 bed experienced this problem? Cheers!

Hey quick ? From a fellow Chevy owner. I’m picking up a used Hawk and was told by a dealer at 10/40 that I would potentially need to build a platform with 2x4’s to accommodate the Chevy bend at the end of the bed. Did you run into this scenario? Cheers

Hey everyone. I'm finally getting a used 2018 Hawk this weekend. One question I have is are towing mirrors necessary? I already ordered a pair, but they won't arrive in time for my first trip. Should I pick up a universal set for my 2013 Chevy Silverado? Thanks!
