For simplicity, I'm pretty much settled on the straight back sides now. I'd have to change too much to accommodate just a 3" taper on each side... meh.  |
Just wanted to chime in here. I think you'll be amazed at how much more stable the truck feels with the topper on. Any junk you put in the back will only help with the balance since the truck is made to be driven loaded. Your lift coefficient is knocked down to a minimum and it will feel like you're driving an arrow.
As far as the side taper, you have kept your taper to a minimum, this will keep the pressure drop along the top to a minimum also, this will keep the higher pressure side air from wanting to roll to the top. I think side tapers would help, but not enough to make a huge difference.
Keep it up!!
