ARB Camper Shell for 4th Gen Tacoma

Icon Top Plate Reinforcement!?

Hey gang!! New to this forum and really excited about my 2025 taco coming in a couple months as a factory order. I have (as most of us have) seen the thread about the aluminum top plate located in the front shocks breaking when off-roading, possibly due to a new design that eliminated the external bump stops on the 24’+ Tacos. Now I do believe Bilstein addressed the issue, stating that their bump stops are now built-in the actual shocks. My question is, if I decide to add the aftermarket Icon top plate, in the event of bottoming out and cracking the aluminum part by Toyota, would Icon reinforcement plate “transfer” the load to a more important part like a control arm, thus potentially causing more expensive damage? Or is the Icon plate a cheap and effective preventative measure, “solving” the potential issue? Any advice is welcome and greatly appreciated!!

I got to see ARB’s new camper shell for the 4th Gen Tacoma while at SEMA in Vegas. This was on an Underground colored Tacoma and was paint matched perfectly. The camper allowed for a full drawer & kitchen setup which was rad. This camper had windows along with a nice notched for that signature 4th Gen rear mounted spoiler as well.
