Hello Everyone,

I know that the older Hawk's will sit up high on a T-100 because of the short bed depth but I'm not so worried about that. I think that some years the hawk base width was too wide for the Toyota T-100 and Tundra, is that right? Does anyone know if an '89 Hawk will slide onto a t-100. Maybee you can way in on this one Ben.

Thanks

It looks like you would need a mid 2001 or newer Hawk or Grandby...

Here is the info from the FWC site:

Toyota T-100 & Tundra Trucks will only fit the newer style ”full-size” Four Wheel Campers. We narrowed the base on the Hawk & Grandby in the middle of 2001 especially for the T-100 and Tundra owners. If you have a T-100 or Tundra and are looking at used campers, take some careful measurements of the camper and your truck bed before you buy. The Older Hawk & Grandby Models unfortunately will not fit. The tailgate opening on the Toyota is usually the biggest factor. The older campers are 60" or 64" wide where the camper will be sitting in the tail gate opening. The newer campers are 58" wide in the tail gate opening area (specifically to fit the T-100 & Tundra Trucks).

The post above explains it rather well. Before 2001 we built the camper specifically for a T-100 or Tundra making the width at the back 58" for the truck. The regular Hawk models were still made at 60" across the back.

So if you find a used one, be careful and make sure to get the measurement across the bottom of the back of the camper.

Thanks for the info and it looks like I am back to the search.
