    Greetings. Just picked up an ‘11 regular cab auto 4x4. 160k miles. It’s got issues as it was an Ohio truck but the price was right so I’m going to have fun with it while it lasts. Prior owner was not very mechanical so fixing the low hanging fruit. Daily driver is a crew cab Tundra so this will be something to tinker on.

    I’m on the hunt for a cap and from what I can tell the crew cab caps won’t work on a regular cab?? Is it a looks sort of thing or are they so different it touches the back of the cab?

    Pretty sure it's the back of the cab angle and the topper hits the cab. Welcome to the forum :thumbsup:

    Windshield was cracked so I’ve replaced that already. So nice to look through clean glass.

    And headlights were nasty and since it’s not a show truck it was rock auto to the rescue.

    Definitely an improvement.
