@@martinchen3838 thank you for the compliment! I'm glad you liked the video!

I do not know the exact measurements of the rack. I have since sold the truck and no longer have access to it. In my notes it's just listed as a 6' Top Rack. I would call them to confirm fitment for your vehicle.

@@935AV thanks. its an amazing truck, a bit sad to hear you sold it!

@@michaelgutierrez6743 honestly we were sad to see it go as well. The new truck has been incredible though and it's been a solid upgrade.

😲 Honestly you're not the only one who has told me the quotes they've gotten in the last few years and I'm in shock from that price. They have gotten extremely expensive.

They are Fabzone. You can find and contact them on Instagram. Definitely recommend. Solid product.

That would be a rad setup!

Yes, the camper is made of fiberglass. It held up to the weight of the tent no problem.

Thank you very much!!

I'm not sure if it's been discontinued, or maybe just renamed. My best suggestion would be to just contact a Leer dealer and tell them exactly what you want. They're usually pretty good about knowing the ins and outs of all the available options.

I did, a couple of times actually. In the end I settled on rear leafs from Dobinson's and Hammer Hangers from Archive Garage. Combined we had a really smooth rear suspension that articulated very well. My suggestion would be to take your truck to a truck scale twice, once fully loaded and once unloaded. Those two weights will allow you to see what your maximum, minimum, and average axle weights are. With that you can determine which level lead pack you need. They're usually sold in some form or regular, heavy, and HD.

Some people took that comment as a straight personal attack. It's wild and they legit got angry. I was just spitballing ideas on the video, but yeah they most all leak for sure in certain spots. Try some butyl rubber crammed in the front edge gaps. 👍🏼

Unfortunately that is what I've heard from many people. You're not the only one who's told me that prices have skyrocketed. It's unfortunate that the shells are so freaking expensive now.

The shell has the roof liner package and then we just put Velcro on the back of all our patches. They stuck extremely well. 👍🏼

Hey thanks for the compliments!! I'm glad you dug the video!! 😁👍🏼

They are a sweet upgrade for sure. You'll dig it. 😎👍🏼

The only weight rating I could find is for the dynamic weight rating, which is 250 pounds. The dynamic rating is the weight the shell can handle when bouncing around down the road. I describe this more, and about the dynamic weight rating around 4 minutes into the video.

I have since sold the truck, but beyond what I mentioned in the video I never had any other issues. The shell was great.

I do not know that there's a difference between a long bed or the shortbed dynamic weight rating. Sorry

I got them on Amazon. They were Naxen Climbing bolts, then I just ran some p-cord through them. It worked great! amzn.to/48JVjBY

It's crazy how much they've gone up.

Short bed ? Long bed? Did they say a difference?

My pickup is a short bed

I used a few of those to seal up the tailgate as best I could. It helped, but wasn't perfect by any means. It's definitely tough to seal it up. Maybe you'll have better luck than me.

@@andyv619 I’m just trying to get tips from people who have more experience

@@blakelynch400 that was actually me as well responding up top. Wrong account signed in for some reason. Anyhow I used a lower tailgate seal that spanned from the bed to the lower edge horizontally and then bulb seal foam on the vertical edges. It helped for sure but wasn't perfect. It's definitely tough to seal up a topper on a bed, but not impossible.

@@TravelingNobodys any advice on a perfect seal? Or would that make it sit tight as well?

@@blakelynch400 here's the kit I used... amzn.to/45fRPVl

It was a Prinsu cap rack. They have a short bed and long bed version. Mine was the king bed version. I think it's 5'11"

I'm glad you enjoyed the review! Thanks for watching 😁👍🏼

Honestly I really never did. The cap held up fine under the weight as long as the clamps were set properly. They were about the biggest issue that ever arose. If they were just perfectly clamped the shell could move while we were bouncing down dirt roads. It happened only once, and if the clamps were adjusted properly it was fine and didn't happen.

@@TravelingNobodys Thanks for the info!

@@varsityoverland no problem!! 👍🏼

My apologies, I don't really understand your question? Can you clarify?

I can run, but it's hard to escape the "Mando Van." 😂

Thank you!! 😁👍

Looking back on our truck this was our favorite setup we had. It was the cleanest stylistically, and was an incredibly efficient and functional setup. Lightweight and extremely capable off-road.

They do make one for the F-150.. 😁👍

I do not know and no longer have the ability to check since I sold the truck.

We did. The time came and we moved to a different platform. I'm trying to make a discussion video on the decision soon.

Nope. So far so good. It's crazy clear actually. No yellowing or distortion. I'll report back in a couple of years, but it sounds like it should maintain its clarity pretty well.

It's a Drake motorsports mount. Rago fabrication also makes a similar one and I think there's some other knock off ones out there on Amazon.

Just the butyl on the leading edges of the bed and some other sealing efforts around the tailgate. Aside from that the bulb seal did all the work.

Both racks are made by Prinsu Design Studio. They are the cab rack and the cap rack. The cap rack can be ordered by length to fit various truck bed lengths.

It would be difficult to secure the tent straight to the rails on the shell. You need space to get between the two to secure them together. As for mounting two individual rails without a rack, it's more possible than mounting directly to the shell, but I think you might again run into the same space/access issues.

@935AV ok.. I have shell Alu-Cab with 2 rails like your, and with 2 loads bar ( same cie Alu-Cab), I put my rtt direct to the load bar. My load bars are bolts to the shell with 40 mm feet hight , so have a lot of space for fix.

I got it at a local Toyota dealership parts department. I'm not sure if they still have them, but it's worth a shot if you're interested. It was Toyota of Chula Vista in San Diego, CA.

Yes they do!!

I'll try to, um, do better next time. 😁

Not if you just go to a Leer dealer, give them your paint code, and custom order your shell. Make super super easy actually.

No, no I don't. I sold the cap like three years ago. 😂

I'm glad it helped!! 😁👍🏼

I never did. I washed it at a DIY wash, not a drive thru mechanical wash.

I installed them myself. All I had to do was loosen the bolts securing the roof tracks and replace them with slightly longer versions. Then when I bolted them back on I sandwiched the anchors on. These are the climbing anchors I used... amzn.to/3XN7NC9

Thank you for such a quick response. Going to do the same.

@@henrydeleon5650 you're welcome. Glad it helped. 👍

I wish there was. I don't think there's a lot of them out there and due to that a video has not been made.
