    You should put a weather strip between the camper shell and and the top rail of the truck bed then reattach the shell to keep water out.

    Yes, yes, you need to do a weather strip , better be dry than miserable cold & wet😢😮. We put a temporary tonneau cover on out truck for our trip because the camper shell was being build. So the camper sealer strip is an easy fix so no water gets inside the camper and can be removed to put in your favorite camper set up. Good luck❤

    I hope it doesn’t rain while out. Don’t forget a pillow, your window covers, tools in case you break down. Water for mechanical reasons and drinking. Tylenol, emergency kit, gloves, a burner camping pot that also percolates ( Walmart) you can boil potatoes and throw in cooler to slice and cook easy! Also cooked hamb. And sausage and cook with a seasoned cast iron skillet. If not this time do it for the next. Toilet paper. Paper towels. A spray bottle with vinegar water to wash the skillet. Rags for washing hands. You will be happy you have these things. Also a can opener. Cook some biscuits to take if you want and warm up the sausage and have some sausage and cheese sandwiches even if You dont have eggs. Or just take some already scrambled and cooked

    I think I would have went ahead and added the weather strip between the shell and the bed rails. You’ll need it for your other topper as well when you upgrade. Of course I’m assuming you’re going with a topper style and not a slide in

    If your camper is wet, air dry it immediately. If it smells it could be mold. Very dangerous. You don’t want to be breathing mold when you’re inside your truck. Figure out where the water is coming inside and seal it.

    Suggestions: 1) 12 volt heating pad for your sleeping bag or cot that plugs into your nice lithium battery. They're energy efficient and will keep you toasty warm inside while sleeping. 2) Refillable collapsible 2.5 to 5 gal water jug with turn on/off spout. 3) Handy dandy night time pee jug. 4) Single cooking element propane stove with a crossover skillet/pot with lid, and a couple of camping utensils (spork/knife), and cups. 5) Rechargeable nightlight that's energy efficient. 6) Something to temporarily mount your cellphone on so you can conviently watch movies/videos inside your truck camper before bedtime. 7) Smal table or shelf with a little cabinet/drawer to place under a side window. 8) Small 12 volt refrigerator/freezer, or an ice chest. 9) Small energy efficient fan.
    Now you're ready to go camping in your truck camper. My best wishes! Enjoy!

    if you keep using the camper shell for hauling items or whatever, in addition to the rail cap sealer, also for a tail gate sealer kit, water comes in that way too... then your next daily driver haul will stay dry. nice find on the camper shell, been thinking about putting one in my 2003 tundra, had it since we were both new and shiny 😂 amazing truck, never let's me down, a blessing for sure 🙋‍♀️
