2016 shell pics?

Leer 100XR - Dual vented windoors, pop out front slider, Thule racks, headliner.

Color match is pretty good. As mentioned quite often it depends on the light. The MGM color reflects light so differently depending on the angle of the surface that it's hard to even say if it's actually a color variance or just the difference in viewing angle. The fitment is great. I had an issue with the tailgate clearance from left to right side that I wasn't aware of until the cap went on and put it in context. Turned out that the dealer had to realign the bed.

I looked into @alive85's mention of Valley Camper Sales in Escondido and they were awesome. I'd happily recommend them.

 

@2016_dbag has an Inferno with an ARE shell...and a killer sleep platform with under storage. If you go to that post, there are more pics he posted later in the thread.

 

Taking the new Snugtop Sportsman shell out for some back country camping outside of Lassen National Park.

 

Do you have a lift on that beauty?

 

Stock suspension. It's all in the tires. KO2 265/70/17.

 

Siick. I have the same truck with leer 100xl on it.. just did my gril black today with a few other things, and looking for an upgraded stance now..Yours looks awesome. Trd pro wheels?

 

Yeah. They sit just far enough out to give it a subtly more aggressive stance, but it makes a big difference from stock appearance imo.

 

I like both of the third gens recently posted. Good looking trucks.

 

ARE V series is on! Got here in less than two weeks to my amazement.

 

How easy is it to take these shells off and put them back on? I'm debating on ordering one but would only want to use it when camping. A tonneau cover for the rest of the time. I've noticed they offer tents as well, but I don't feel like they would hold up nearly as well for beach camping with the stronger winds.

 

SCS F5 wheels?

 

If you have 3-4 people, pretty easy. Its 4-6 clamps on the inside and maybe some sealant.

 

So definitely not a one person job?

 

Def not. I tried doing a snugtop tonneau cover by myself once, ended up scratching the hell out of it and still wasnt able to get it on.

You need 1 person standing in the bed of the truck to push the shell up with their back and walk while the other 2 are on each side lifting and guiding.

You might be able to get it done with 2 people but depending on how heavy your shell is I would suggest 3-4. Wouldnt take that long, maybe 5-10min max

 

I had a friend break a vertebra in his neck trying to take the roof off of a 4 runner by himself. He was trying to push it up with his head. It is definitely a job for multiple people

 

Gotta have someplace to hang them long legs...always think ahead,,,I dont think there is any reason to call out more options...have fun take care of your knees.

 

I haven't removed my current one yet, but on my last truck I took my canopy on and off on a pretty regular basis without additional assistance. Just requires a little preparation and some work smarter, not harder.

 

Leer 100xl

Just realized the caps barely in the shot lol

 

Correct you are, matte bronze. I love them over the stockers. So much easier to clean too.

 

Bam!
