Several Different Options for 2024+ Tacoma I’m drafting this up to compare topper options for the Tacoma, and if I forgot any please feel free to let me know. Toppers give you full bed coverage, weather protection, and added security for gear. There are a lot of different styles out there: modular stainless, aluminum, fiberglass, and fabric. So I pulled together a list to see how they stack up. What to Look For Construction material (steel, aluminum, composite, fabric) and how that affects weight and durability Access style, whether that’s full gullwing doors, sliding glass, or soft roll-ups Modularity and accessory support if you plan to run racks, lights, or gear mounts on top Where they are manufactured (US, overseas, combination of both), if that's important to you GFC GFC builds lightweight, modular toppers designed to handle heavy use while keeping the weight down. Their platform style makes them popular for campers and gear haulers alike. Lightweight aluminum construction American Made Accessory mounting tracks integrated Built strong for off-road and overland use Check price online: LINK HERE SmartCap SmartCap makes a modular stainless steel truck cap that’s built tough and designed for customization. You can swap out panels, add gear mounts, or scale the cap workload without replacing the whole thing. Five-piece modular design lets you change or upgrade panels Designed for full weather sealing and durability Mounting provisions for racks, lights, and gear Check price online: LINK HERE Rough Country Rough Country’s topper options aim to combine utility with ruggedness for overland use. Their caps use heavy construction and modular layout to give you real capability without compromising security. Strong frame construction and sealed doors Modular panels and mounting integration Lockable and weather-optimized design Check price online: LINK HERE A.R.E A.R.E builds a wide range of caps from basic fiberglass shells to high-end modular models. They’re one of the most established names with options for both work and adventure. Multiple lines depending on need (work, sport, overland) Tight sealing and weather resistance Strong aftermarket support Check price online: LINK HERE Alu-Cab Alu-Cab’s canopies are purpose-built for overlanding, with aluminum construction that keeps weight down without sacrificing strength. They’re modular and set up for accessories from the start. All-aluminum welded construction Built for heavy use and remote travel Accessory compatibility for racks, lights, and storage Check price online: LINK HERE Softopper Softopper makes a collapsible fabric topper that you can run when you want coverage and stow when you don’t. It’s an easy option if you want flexibility without the weight of a hard cap. Collapsible fabric cover on an aluminum frame Sets up or stows quickly Weather protection with flexible use Check price online: LINK HERE OVS Overland Vehicle Systems builds an expedition-style topper aimed at rugged use. Their caps feature full wing doors and tough construction for trail and overland trips. Gullwing side doors for easy access Heavy-duty materials and seals Designed for racks, lights, and gear mounting Check price online: LINK HERE Westin Westin’s EXP cap is an aluminum topper with gullwing doors and roof rails for added gear capacity. It’s a good balance of strength, utility, and reduced weight compared to steel. Aluminum double-wall design Multiple access points, including gullwing doors Roof rails for racks and accessories Check price online: LINK HERE SnugTop SnugTop has been in the truck cap space for decades, known for OEM-level fit and finish. Their toppers are more traditional but give great sealing and compatibility. Full fiberglass shell design OEM styling for a factory look Wide availability and proven track record Check price online: LINK HERE Final Thoughts This is just a draft comparing what’s out there right now, so if I missed a brand or option that should be on the list, drop it in. Looking across them, the differences mainly come down to weight, material, and whether you want a permanent setup or something removable. Thinking about how often you’ll use it, how much gear you’ll run, and how permanent you want the install to be will help narrow down the right topper for your Tacoma.

Hey everyone.
I have a gen 4 TRD Sport and recently purchased the ARB rear recovery hooks. Was wondering if anyone in the forum could guide me to someone who makes/sells the collared pins for mounting the hooks. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks everyone!
