Show me your shell!

excellent help agtex, thank you. I will need to call the dealer Monday and have him run some prices seperately.

Are you kinda feeling like you could definately do without the gun case then? That is what's pushing me to the wilderness package.

 

Yeah, if you plan to use it solely as a gun case then I think it's worthless from the factory because there is no way to secure the gun once you have it in there. Hopefully I'll be able to rig up something that will take care of it, but if not it will still be nice to have the extra storage space as I only have a reg cab.

 

You were a tremendous help for me. With the double cab, my back seats fold down and make a good table. I can do without this overhead storage. I'll be making a call Monday and putting on my wheel$Deal hat Many thanks again.

 

I did remove mine and I'm currently using it as a small tool box, by glue a carpet to a 1x8x?? lumber cut to the inner length between the cap walls and turning it upside. It will not handle properly any long gun in it, even with the already carpeted interior and since I use my cap as a bed when hunting/fishing/outdoors it was not able to dress comfortably in the camper. Later I will be able to send a photo of this setup.

THIS IS THE PHOTO...

 

thanks for the help vega

 

Finally pulled the trigger. Should be here this week. Hope to have it installed for our trip next weekend.

I went with an A.R.E.

I'll post pics when I get it.

 

Leer 100XL,

Very satisfied with this high quality unit..
I was torn between 100XR and 100XL, but opted for the sleeker look over functionality.. Glad I went with this one in the end.
Rear wing windows open about 2.5inches and the front slider opens up also, so it gets cool air plus I have a 12V fan in there for warm nights
Oh, forgot to mention that I have a truck Bedz in the back too.

 

I really like my ARE MX series, with the Windoors, although actually I just brought it back to the dealer and they removed it from the truck to send back to the factory. The paint and/or fiberglass was cracking around one of the windows.
ARE was extremely acommodationg, the dealer was great. I'm supposed to get it back in a couple of weeks, so hopefully things are fixed properly.

It's too bad it happened, but it's nice to see a compnay willing to stand behind it's products.

Shawn

 

now you tell me.............just messin'........get some pics up when you get it back.

I ordered a V series.

 

just got mine two weeks ago

 

Sorry, I do have pics, but none with me for the next few days anyways.

I'm not too worried as I was pleased with the response from ARE.

The V series looks like a nice cap. Did you get any options?

Shawn

 

If it makes you guys feel better, my LEER is doing the same thing - two chunks of fiberglass came out be the rear window. Waiting to hear back from the LEER rep...

Mike

 

See tha pictures attached for my cap.

Let me know LEER's response.

As I indicated before, ARE was extremely accomodating.

I'll have to see how it is once I get it back.

 

oh yeah we gots some options vented windoors, fold down slider, yakima rack system, headliner, and 2 extra lights.

I hope to have it before our trip to Kentucky this Friday.

 

just had a cab height ARE installed on Red Zepplin looks smooth its a nice fit but i think im going to add a seal around the window so i can pass treats to the dog with out letting rain or heat in.

 

hey bro, title of thread says show me....just messin', get some pics when you get time, I'd love to see it.

 

Those connector 'boots' are notorious for causing paint abrasion on the cab and/or the canopy.

 

here it is

 

Any word from LEER?

My cap has been repaired. I have to go and have it re-installed on Wednesday.

Shawn

 

Not yet. Apparently my dealer has to call the rep again, and they have not done so. Getting a little annoyed...

Not sure what else they need. The dealer called it in originally, and then asked me to send the pictures in. I did so, and the rep asked for the serial number. I provided that. It's been over two weeks since that happened...
