    I've been thinking of a DCU wedge for my 2012 AC to replace my cab height Leer (FB marketplace special). I've had a snugtop highliner, a GFC, and the cab height leer. I am look for something lighter than a GFC or Super Pacific, but more headroom than the High Liner caps -- wedge DCU seems to fit the biil.

    Curious what brand and options you selected and what was the price?

    Hey Joe: do you have a rough idea of what that top weighs before you built it out?

    Guess I never posted in this thread, just the general shell one

    I am a big fan of aluminum caps, I really like the side door accessibility. This is my second one.
    I monstalined it, and installed solar panels and a shower and 270 awning

    I was trying to subtly say there are many options.
    Pick your options and call a dealer.
