    I would say no, if you're going to wheel it. That's way to clean to beat up.

    Trying to decide if I should buy an ARE camper top. I LOVE my softopper but also really like the hard tops too. If I did buy it I think id keep the softopper and switch in an out.
    Suggestions?

    Tighten them or loosen them it will squeak if either are true especially if it's only on start up

    mudding is fun but man it takes a toll on the truck in the long run. I've slowed down with wheeling cuz I'm trying to sell the taco next year. i heard u can use a bar of soap on the belts and it stops squeaking
