Can someone grab me a couple dimensions as sanity check for fitment of a hawk on newer superduty? In a bit of analysis paralysis spiral over an inch here and there on paper.
Here is what would be helpful
-Camper bottom to cabover underside (and how much clearance that provides on a superduty roof)
-Camper bottom to underside of the wings that go over the bed rails
-Camper front to where the floor pack widens.
I have a 22' superduty now that I hope to have a good while and want to overhaul the frame I welded up to fit this instead. Right now I have sketched out 23" to clear the bed rails and with the constraints of my frame (avoiding excessive cutting/welding) that puts the cabover at 48.75" which I'm thinking is a lil taller than ideal, wondering about lowering things 1". Figured I'd ask what the factory ones are coming with and how well that fits. Also I have the distance from the front to where the floorpack widens at 60" which might not be enough room after the wheel well ends, again I figured I'd ask what the factory version is coming with these days as a sanity check.
Update on me, as always life is busy/crazy, kids keep growing, projects that draw focus come/go.
I shelved the buildout on my frame because of the above and reality I wanted to replace my aging dodge at some point. I have my new truck now and despite being pulled in numerous directions still getting that spark to want to have a truck camper again. (I have a trailer for family camping, etc. but we all know the perks of these setups for wandering). Not making any proclamations on timelines/success, haha, learned my lessons there over the years. ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
