    Man I'm digging the high toppers!! If I wasn't so tall I'd do a topper again to camp with.
    My truck always requires a blood sacrifice when working on it.

    nicely done - next time just do the blood sacrifice up front, and avoid all the other issues.

    That's awesome! It's always better when you can put the work in and have the result you were after. I camp in mine and love it. I have a topper that is flush with the cab of my pickup so I don't have as much vertical room. That one you have was a killer price and looks great!

    Getting ready to touch up the silver paint on mine and repaint the 4-Runner racks that were installed on it.

    Thanks for sharing. Good info and inspiration :)

    Nice job....I've been looking for something like your find for a little bit, but high tops are like looking for hens teeth around my way.

    ..good to see that you used the proper tools at critical steps of the project :cheers:, probably why your work ended up looking so good.

    You've inspired me to once again take up the hunt. :pccoffee:

    Looks great.

    Do the sliding windows on the side leak from their tracks? Not the window frame to shell interface, but the sliding glass to frame. I'm trying to figure out how to address this issue. Mine leak from the rear corners.
