    Has Anyone put a prinsu Rack on a MX series Truck topper?

    I have'nt found any photos of anyone doing this. Prinsu says they have seen it done. Trying to decide if I want the 5 ft or the 6 ft on a 6 ft shell. As you know the dimensions of the MX are not as rectangular as the other low profile ARE truck toppers.

    Buy the 6ft rack.
    Worse case you have to trim down the side rails a bit.

    Chances are you will need something between 5ft and 6ft to look good.

    I used Rhino gutter plates to put a frontrunner tray on my snugtop mid rise. I wanted it to hang over the cab a little so the bars are far apart... for canoes.

    That looks real good. I was originally thinking a short rack would be a better fit but that pic has me second guessing

    Thanks. I think the rack sort of hides the 'bubble' on the mid rise caps. Mine is 53 x 77". The black paint just started flaking off the slats in the touch less car wash. Not too happy.

    Found a long bed prinsu rack on a mid rise leer canopy. Horrible picture but kinda gives you an idea of how it would sit. I still can’t decide on long or short6147B83C-E528-43A0-896E-BBAD8A859CE7.jpg
