Show me your shell!

Windows, frame and all, can be swapped out. I've watched it done on my cap three times, all under warranty.

 

I'm not sure of the model but it's a Leer topper I want to carry 2 78" fishing rods safely off the bed whats the best way. Also what model is this?

 

That's a 100rcc Comercial cap. For poles on the roof, I Would get a pvc tube. Or track down an old Leer or Thule locking rod/ reel holder.

 

More likely a 100R

 

R normally have the windows cut. RCC come with the sides solid. I could be wrong though.

Anyways, it is an "100r" series in some sort of configuration

 

But really, I just lay my poles in the topper diagonal. No issues yet

 

I have a 100RCC with the side sliding windows

It's most likely a 100R because there is no roof rack pylons mounted through the roof

You can get a 100R with no side windows

 

Your right.

With a 78" - ( 6'5" ) pole you could lay it across the back ledge of the topper side to side diagonal. I kept a 7' & 6'8" one piece side by side in my short bed like that for years. Once I get my gear back, I will continue to do it again.

 

Finally got my shell painted (was silver and drove with it that way for 8 months) this past weekend. Found the shell for $300 after looking for almost an entire year and then $250 paint job. The brand is ATC made in Kansas. Yakima racks.

 

Looks really good!

 

Hey all, talking to a guy that is selling his truck with camper. He's willing to sell his shell for $1200. It's got side vented windoors, the fold-down vented front window and roof rack. He said it was $2500 new. His truck has 42,000 miles on it but I don't know how long the shell has been on it. Is $1200 a good deal for this (keeping in mind I'll have to get it painted)?

 

I see better deals all the time. I bought a top of the line ARE for $175 (they sell for over $2k), all it needed was to be painted...you can do better!

 

They seem to depreciate fairly fast, at least as far as resale. Mine was around $1600 new and I got it around 5 years later for $400 off here. A good deal but they can be found. Be patient. Craigslist is your friend.

 

I paid $1000 for the CX which is a little more expensive. So you are close.

 

Just bought my Tacoma last night and it came with a Leer Camper Shell. While it is nice, I do not need it for what I use the truck for.

Is $400 a good price? After reading some comments here, it seems I may be a little low because its in great condition.

 

I had shopped for used for a while until I found the color match. They all seemed to be in the $1k range for a good quality in like new condition.

 

If he paid $2500 new for it he was taken over. I have a Leer top of the line cap and I paid $2200 for it last Sept. with Yakima rack system, roof liner, removable front slider, inside netting, insides screens. It's not that old since Yakima just started make those aero bars a couple of years ago. Offer him $1,000 for it or lower. If he is selling the truck he would make out better selling it to you.

 

Windoors aren't a cheap option. I think mine were $300. I paid $2200 for mine with tax. Had I got the roofrack option, it would have been $2500

 

My new topper with sliding windoors on both sides, removable front slider, roof rack, and one piece rear door love it thanks man
