    Just figure I would let folks know that today, I confirmed an ARE MX canopy off a double cab fits an access cab after selling mine off a double cab to a member on here who has an access cab.

    Here is a pic on my double cab:

    Here are pics visually seeing check if the bed length on my double cab and access cab are the same (Yes...I have both a double and an access cab):

    Here is a pic on a member's access cab:

    Just remember this is for an ARE MX, so don't know if all manufacturer and models would fit the same. Just waited to help other members out when they are looking for a canopy.

    Yessir, the only cabs that are different are single cabs. The angle for the front of the shell is different. Single cab shells have less of a curve at the top.

    So a shell from a single cab will be fine on a AC or DC, but a shell from an AC or DC will rub either the taillight or the roof section slightly.

    Yeah, I think the main concern is really the Standard cab vs the Access/Double even though they are similar lengths.
