Bought an ARE LSII cover for my S-Crew

I have an 04 S-Crew Lariat and ordered the ARE LSII Tonnau Cover. It is on order, but I was wondering if anyone had pictures of one on their S-Crew? Also, I wonder if the shaking toward the back of the bed will cause me problems by bouncing into the cover.

Anyone, Anyone?

Thanks, JJ

I have an LSII on an scab Lariat and the shake is not a problem
for me.It takes a large bump to make it move.Also it does not touch the painted surfaces.The front corners are a tight fit but no problem so far.Sorry i don't have a picture.

ARE LSII for 04 Lariat 6.5 bed=$750.00 to $900.00 depending
on options. My lid was $900.00 + tax.

Hi everybody.....

First of all I don't know what you all are talking about when you say "shaking at the rear of the bed?!?!

I have the Lariat SuperCrew with the 5.5" bed, and DON'T have any noticeable shaking or vibration in my bed at all.

The ARE LSII Tonneau Cover does NOT touch the body of the truck anywhere. And, the front of the cover is flared slightly outwards so that when the cover is fully raised, the front portion of the cover won't hit the sides of the body.

Threre is a self adhesive rubber weather strip around the inside, bottom lip of the cover, so that when the cover is closed, there is a very slight gap between the body of the truck and the cover. If your cover is touching the truck body at any point it is installed INCORRECTLY, and needs to be loosened and repositioned.

I paid $775.00 + tax for my cover.....with NO ADDTIONAL CHARGE for installation.

My cover is 99+% weather tight; the only time I got water in my bed is when I accidentally directed my pressure washer perpendicular to the side of my truck when I was washing it....DUH, HUH!!!!!

I am hoping to detail my truck in the next few weeks, and will take some pictures of it and post them in my gallery on this site.

Has anyone seen the Advance cover from Elite? I had one on my sport trac. cost was $510 with the group buy on thesporttrac web site. It looked good, was water tight and weighed only about 30lbs. I'm considering one for my SCREW. I love saying that , SCREW!--Jack
