    Mostly stock with a few minor mods.
    If you don't like the color combo, coat it with a black bedliner like Monstaliner. I did a strip around the base of mine just to cover some dings and scratches from buying it used and it has held up fine for the last 4 years. A black topper would look great on desert sand.

    Ditto. I replaced my hardware after a year of buying my Leer new. In the summer it can feel like a sauna inside and the hardware isn't very good quality galvanized/zinc coated stuff. Definitely not a red flag or anything.

    Was it the peer pressure or the fact that some responses were from people who want it if you pass! :rofl:

    You might want to consider getting there quicker!

    Haha that may have been part of it! If he was selling it in SoCal I would never post it on here for that exact reason lol.

    At least I know where to sell it if I don’t like it.

    Solid deal. I paid $500 for mine two years ago. The kicker? It was repainted white. My truck is silver. Guess what the original color was? Yep, SILVER. :facepalm:

    Yes, it's a good deal.

    That said, after having them for 5 years, I wouldn't buy any shell that didn't have Windoors. Game changer.

    I can't help but wonder if there's any reasonable way to get that layer of white off and expose the silver below it. Probably far fetched unless they rattle canned it.

    heed this advice!! unless the seller lives near a famous BBQ place, you do not want to waste your drive time.

    Welp, I secured the bag fellers. I’ll post up some pics of it on the truck as soon as I can. Any suggestions for counteracting the sag?

    You may need an add a leaf or a new leaf pack to correct the safe.

    Headstrong off road sells them , also wheelers off road too I think

    I had thought about an AAL but I really don’t want to have to do anything to the front. I think 1-1.5 inches would do the trick

    It shouldn't bring you up by too much then. I did the headstrong +3 AAL and was perfect for my needs as I raised the front too. You may only need 1. Might consider measuring your wheel center cap to fender and keep it all recorded.

    Good point. I have 5100s on the front that are already raised 1 notch to level so I have a bit of room to play with.

    If you don’t buy it I see it is on a Va tag truck and matches my paint color. Just sayin’...

    Stock for now.. maybe
    Glad you got a good deal! Everything you hoped and wanted and in as good of shape? I know taking a bit of a drive to pick up stuff like that can be frustrating if its not as advertised once you get there.
    Nice find
