    Lift, wheels, tires, sliders, and skidplates...so far.
    The website claims they make this for the long bed too but I have scoured the interwebs and can't find a single pic of one on a long bed.

    17' TRD rims/BFG Ko2, OEM Roof Rack, TRD Pro Grill, Locker down console , Snugtop Rebel, lots MESO mods
    Just got a 2018 Taco off road in cement , looking for a shell. this GB sport looks really nice on a taco over the rebel.
    How is the ventilation in the GB Sport? looks like just two small pop out windows vs rebel sliding windows with screens?

    I have dogs and I want to be able to get as much air as possible in the back, cant seem to find any info on window compares between the two models GB sport vs Rebel.

    Thinking about picking this up. Have y'all had any issues since you've had it? Any features you'd recommend to get with it? Looking for good quality top that matches style of the rest of my taco.

    It's too soon for me to review my top but I love it!

    Its the best looking top in my opinion but it would be nice to have windoors like the other models. I don't use my truck as a work truck every day so it's not too bad. As far as ventilation, if you open the front sliding window and the two side pop out windows you can create very good airflow. As you drive the air flows around the cab into the sliding window. See the gap between the shell and cab? That creates a channel for air flow. I had my dog in the back and he poked his head thru the sliding window and I could see his fur blowing.

    Nice looking cap. Like the side window - much nicer than the option available on my ARE CX Revo.

    Do you have any photos of the side window open, or any of the side window from the inside?

    Thanks! Can you still use the rail cleats, or does the top prevent them from being used?

    You can still use them. The guy I picked up the top from had them installed on his.

    I just bought the truck a couple weeks ago so they are still in the glove box.

    How is the visability looking through rear view mirror? Looks like the rear hatch/window is small.

    No loss in visibility with the rear view mirror in normal conditions. When driving and looking out of it, it's the same.

    The only time I lose visibility it's when I back up into my dark carport and its bright outside. The rear cab window becomes reflective and I cant see past it. That's when the rear view camera is helpful.

    Thanks again! Another question if you don't mind. With the tail gate closed, and the hatch open, does the opening seem small? Looks like the hatch hinges are mounted lower than on other models. Thanks again, you have provided more info than i can find on the inter web.

    No worries. I had the same issue when looking for info so I dont mind. It can probably help other people in the future too.

    I'll take a picture in a bit

    @adoyot71

    I dont know what you'd consider small but yeah it doesnt open up to the full height.

    Walked my dog and came back to snap some pics. Had to brighten them up since my carport is dark.

    I just meant the opening between the top of the tail gate (closed) and the header/hatch hinge seemed a little smaller than other openings. Thanks for the photos!
