    That’s another reason why I like the aluminum. No rust.

    I have a SB version on my LB. Didn't want too much overhang over my ST window and love this rack. Fairly level with the prinsu.

    Going through this again and the Aluminum Rack for over here in the Salt Belt might be a smarter idea. I have actually just bought a Brand New Softopper as the one I bought from a Member on here I believe was not meant for a Tacoma. Pic one is old Softopper in which you will notice it sits above the Roof line. Second pic is the new Softopper which is level with the Roof Line. Does the Aluminum need to be primed before painting? Or can I just paint it?

    @SOS CONCEPTS if I choose to add Rotopax Mounting is it on just one side or 2? Plus this rack comes all apart correct which helps with shipping I would imagine?

    Yes to the bolting together. Usually just one side I believe I'll double check and get back to you.

    Softopper is offering a group buy through 10/31/19 for a minimum of 10 purchasers. $45.95 off the price of a new top. That's your choice of top color, either 2nd or 3rd gen, short or long bed and delivered to your door with no sales tax outside of CO. Purchase normally through them, notify them you are part of the group buy. I don't have enough posts to list it in the group buy section.

    Interesting quote from them concerning fit, ......Everything is the exact same on both models (2nd or 3rd gen long bed) other than the rear window panel and hardware...
