Congrats nice topper. Any idea where the third brake light was taped into?

 

It maybe just the picture, but is the rear of the topper higher? just wondering as I have one on order.

 

It is the same height. They used an adapter that plugs into the backside of trailer connector. No splicing

 

I hope my shell place does that, they usually splice

 

Very nice. I own the same topper, just don't own a truck yet. "Awaiting Shipment)

 

Thats what my shell place is saying . Thats why I have been trying to figure this out to have prepped before I get the cap.

 

Can you ask them what adapter they used?

 

what tires do you have mounted? They fill the wheel wells nicely.

 

Hankook 325 65 18's.They are 34.6 tall and ride very nice..I'll check on a part number for the harness

 

Did you have to do a front level for those tires, and is there room for mud flaps on the front?

 

Truck is stock. I just installed Husky mud flaps, fit very nice

 

Nice looking truck and topper!

I have the same model of topper on my current truck. The installer did the splice-in method to power the third brake light and it didn't last very long. The installer also pushed the topper too far forward on the bed and the topper contacted the rear of the cab and rubbed off all the paint. I don't know if this will be a problem on the Superduty but it sure was on my Titan because the rear of the cab was curved but the bed and topper weren't. Repaint on the cab and topper.

I think the Leer 100XQ is the best looking topper available. Mine has been fairly resilient. The paint is in good shape after almost 10 years. Most of the problems are of my own making. The hatch mechanisms (latches and hinges) seem to need to be adjusted once a year.

I hope the light and switch have been improved. Mine is kind of cheesy and never really put out much light.

 

Nice truck...but I could never bring myself to install a cap. Ruins the look for me, although I realize some folks just want the enclosed space.
