Show me your shell!

Got the Sherpa Equipment Crows Nest installed on my Leer last night, pictures to follow.

 

21' Trail Edition w/ Leer 100R

 

Man, could we have anymore of a similar truck?! Haha Looks great!

 

Finally got my A.R.E Overland Shell. Options I got were, Carpet Lined, Pet Screens, Front window door, Pressure switch LED light Strip and the Roof Rails.

 

After along wait I finally got my canopy on. Went with a ARE MX with a windoor on the drivers side. Found a slight leak on the windoor so I adjusted the handle so hope that fixes it. Couple little discrepancies but the installer is working to correct them

 

My old 2015 with the SnugTop.

 

Got my shell installed last week.
I had a chance to clean up the truck today and take a few pics.
Leer 180 with windoors on both sides.
I'm pretty happy with the way it looks, the paint match and overall quality of the shell.
The dealer also did a nice job on the install.

 

What did they use to fill the gaps on the front rail? Nice!

 

They took the top piece off and put some weather stripping underneath it. Then reinstalled.
The shell also has a double seal on the flange that seals on the truck bed.

 

The dealer did the same thing to the front rail on my truck like yours. Nice truck and topper. I have a topper as well but different model. Mine is 100XQ.

 

Did you install the cargo net or did it come with the shell?

 

The dealer installed the hooks. I installed the cargo net. It would be good if you use light stuff (such as vests) in there. Not heavy stuff because they will come out of the net if you take off at the stop light or stop sign. I will consider to go back to the dealer and add the hooks on front and back ends. So the stuff will stay put.

Other good thing is that if you aren't using cargo net, you can hold something such as TV or furniture so you can straps them by using the d-rings on floor and the hooks in the ceiling. That way, they won't fall over or slide around.

 

What cargo net is that?

 

I don't remember the brand or size (I got it about 2 years ago) but here you go:

Bought one and it doesn't overlap the decal, but it's close. I removed the decals anyway for a clean look.

 

Wrapped my third brake light today just to reduce glare/ the annoying look of a brake light that doesn't need to be there. Getting to the bulb is a royal pain, so I figured this was a clean, quick and easy way to get the job done. Works well and figured some here might be keen on the idea.

 

Is the aluminum frame inside obtrusive at all? I’m between the HD and the Evolve or Revo. I like the idea of the HD, but the thought of bashing my head, or my dogs their heads, on that thing is holding me back.

 

Do you have any clearance issues with the hitch rack and the tailgate? (also, what kind of Kona is that you got there?)

 

with the bike off and the rack flat, the tailgate sits about 2-3” above so works pretty well. Handlebars get in the way of being able to fully open the rear glass with the bike up there. Seen a guy in the area I ride that has a hitch rack that swings right outta the way. Pretty slick

Kona Process 153. Great bike for where I ride. Climbs well but great for techy descent
