Might possibly want to attach some 2x4s to the bottom so you don't ruin the truck roof, it looks awfully close...Nice looking oldy

You may also not want to to much downward pressure on those jack brackets that you are using for tie downs. This may cause the bottom section to seperate you will be able to see that at the bottom section of the back door were the opening will be wider at the top than the bottom. If that is how you want to tie it down I would recommend install something between the truck rail and the bottom of the camper to help suport it.

BW: am not sure what you mean. How would you recommend doing this?
edited: oh ok, bottom of camper that is above the truck rail. I was thinking the bottom being down in the bed of the pickup. Got it -
Thanks for advice. This is a new adventure for me.
