    I am just curious. Does it have the insulation ring between the bed and topper? If not, once you put it on, it will be level. I had the same issue and that is why it was a hair smaller. The "gasket" is almost 1" thick.

    Sure about that? I was searching for a used shell for ages, there were none around. Then I did find one, I responded to the Craigslist ad within hours of it being posted and it was already sold.

    There are a lot of people on this website who are in the same situation. If I had a long bed silver cap for sale I could sell it ten times over on here.

    ace hardware,and pep boys all sell a camper shell gasket.It comes in a roll and cut to fit each side. You can double up on it to get a little more height. Also, check with a local RV store.
