My Leer 180 looks nearly new after 8 years ... I offroad moderately during camping and hunting seasons, it hasn't cracked or leaked yet.

I think if you buy from the factory you can specify heavy duty layup, which uses extra fibreglass and reinforcement. I would also get the bed stiffeners mounted right away and you should be good to go!

Couldn't agree more. Have a Leer cap and bed stiffeners and no problems after 3 years. The truck is used daily and never abused. Moderate off road use with hunting, camping, etc.

Bed stiffeners help maintain structural stability. I didn't do much weather stripping other than around the bed and don't have any leaks other than a rare drop of water or two. I hesitate to completely seal the bed and cap because of condensation.

Hope that helps
