WELCOME TO THE

GFC SUPPORT CENTER

What type of help do you need?

Is the Platform Camper Universal Fit?

Each supported vehicle has a uniquely-designed camper to fit its bed and cab dimensions. We do not produce a universal model or shim kits to adapt from one truck to another.

Do you support my vehicle?

We support 117 vehicles and counting, so there's a good chance that we do. You can check on our Vehicle Compatibility page. If you don’t see your vehicle, please fill out the “Unsupported Models Form." Reach out to our sales team for more info at +1 (406) 905-0987.

How much does it weigh?

The standard size camper weighs around 270 pounds depending on options. The XL size weighs about 300 pounds.

Will it fit in my garage?

The Platform Camper's RTT is the thinnest pop top assembly on the market at a svelte 6". Reference the vehicle compatibility page for more dimensions. Beef Rack Crossbars are an additional 2.5 inches.

How do I mount it?

We recommend having your Platform Camper professionally installed by one of our install teams at any retail & install location. However, if you're having the camper shipped to your home, please check out our DIY install guide.

What if my truck bed or cab isn't stock?

If you have a modified vehicle, please reach out to tell us about your setup.

How easy is it to take it off?

While the Platform Camper is easy to remove–thanks to a simple, four-fastener attachment system–it was designed to be left on your truck without hindering its use as a daily driver or work rig.

“Cabana Mode” offers incredible access thanks to its full length opening panels. Unless you have a very specific scenario, we almost guarantee you will never want to take it off.

Can you lock the camper?

Each panel on the topper has two locking latches. Additionally, two latch locks are optional for the pop-up portion.

What are the panels made out of?

The panels are made from 5000-Series aluminum, and offer an excellent balance of weight and strength. The panels are powder coated for aesthetic appearance and color.

What are the color options?

Platform Camper panel standard color choices are Black and White, Grey, Metallic Grey, Silver, Blue, Bronze, Green, and I Dare Ya Red.

The tent fabric options are Tangerine or Stone Grey. Check out the options & FAQ on our Platform Camper page to see swatches.

Can it vent underway?

Call it Stealth Ventilation. While it wasn’t an intentionally-designed feature, opening the rear latch does allow for significant ventilation (both stopped and driving) while still appearing closed to a casual observer. This has the added benefit of limiting visibility of passers by, something most dogs appreciate and discourages randoms from walking up and interacting with your animals while you’re away. That combined with the insulating roof provides a covert option for transporting dogs comfortably. That said, never leave an animal in a hot enclosure. Greenhouse effect is real and that applies to any topper, especially ones with windows (operable or not).

Please note that this method is only recommended for V2 campers.

Can accessories be added after install?

Thanks to the Platform Camper’s modular design, all GFC accessories can be installed at a later date.

However, available build options (such as camper windows and tent side doors) must be specified during the ordering process.

Is it cross-compatible with different generations of the same truck?

Our V1 and V2 Platform Campers are notcross-compatible between truck makes and models.

The ONLY exceptions are Generation 2 & 3 Toyota Tacomas. However, the rear panel must be swapped due to differing tailgate designs.

What Cab-Racks are compatible?

Tacoma Short Bed: Sherpa Animas (30”), Stock Rack w/out crossbars, Modified Prinsu (HABITAT WILL NOT WORK WITH SHORT BEDS)

Tacoma Long Bed: Sherpa Animas (44”), Stock Rack w/out crossbars, Prinsu Habitat

Tacoma Double Cab (2005- 2022): Martin Off-Road Camper Rack.

Tundra CrewMax 5.5 (2022): Sherpa Cub Rab.

What are the Platform RTT's dimensions?

The standard Platform RTT exterior dimensions are 53"x97". When closed, the RTT will be 6" thick, which is the thinnest RTT on the market by a significant margin.

The Platform RTT's interior dimensions are 50" x 90"; it's 55" tall at the peak.

How much does the Platform RTT weigh?

The Platform RTT weighs around 135lbs.

Do you support custom mounting?

The RTT can be mounted to most aftermarket racks by using our Aftermarket Kit. For those going the more custom route, take a look at our Custom Mounting Disclaimer for more support.

We do not accommodate installation for non-GFC supported mounting setups at this time. If this sounds like you, we do require that you have your completed unit shipped.

How do I mount an rtt to my Land cruiser or 4runner?

Toyota Land Cruiser 60 & 80 Series Gutter Mounts: This kit includes 4 gutter rail clamps and hardware.Click here for Land Cruiser Gutter Mount Install Guide.

5th Gen. Toyota 4Runner Mounts: The 4Runner kit utilizes the factory roof rack mounting points and includes an antenna delete kit for unparalleled low-profile mounting.Click here for 5th Gen. 4Runner Mount Install Guide.

Does the RTT support a load?

The RTT will lift with 75 pounds on the roof.  Using our Beef Rack Cross Bars, the RTT supports up to 500lbs of mounted cargo when closed.

Make sure to check your vehicles specific load capacity prior to mounting cargo.

Does it come with a ladder?

The Platform RTT features a door on each side, as well as a rear door. Ladders are not included, but you can purchase one here.

Is it compatible with aftermarket roof racks like Yakima & Thule?

Crossbar Mounting Straps: Compatible with standard Yakima/Thule or comparable round, square, or aero-style crossbars. Crossbars need to be at least 56" long and can be no wider than 2.5" for proper mounting. This mounting setup adds an additional 0.25"-0.50" in height over your existing crossbars.Click here for Crossbar Mounting Strap Install Guide.

Aftermarket Rack Mounts: Compatible with most aftermarket rack systems that utilize t-slot style crossbars (Prinsu, Sherpa, FrontRunner, etc) and most truck topper integrated track systems with spacing no greater than 53" apart. These mounts add an additional 1" of height to your mounting setup and you will need to source your own rack-specific t-nuts and bolts for the installation.Click here for Aftermarket Rack Mount Install Guide.

With either setup referenced above, the mounting points should be at least 48" apart for proper installation and use. If you have a setup with a lesser distance, please let us know so we can advise you on the best way to mount your RTT.

Check your manufacturer's recommended capacity/ weight specs before mounting your RTT.

How much is Camper shipping?

For Platform Camper customers, the best option is to choose a professional installation at one of our retail locations.

Platform Camper shipping and installation at one of our retail locations costs $600, and is payable with the final invoice.

For freight shipments and pricing, contact us via email: support@gfcengineering.com.

How much is RTT shipping?

If you are located within the Continental US, shipping is a flat rate of $750 and your RTT will ship as soon as your order is placed (next business day). Your RTT will be delivered via Old Dominion Freight; we will send tracking info and delivery instructions when your order ships and the carrier will reach out to you directly to schedule the delivery.

If you would like liftgate service, you will be able to request that from the carrier at this time. Shipping times typically range from 3-7 days depending on location.
