A.R.E. MX Series

While researching my recent cap purchase I found a lack of pictures on the web of this cap on our trucks, So I thought I would share some pics. Although I think the cab height caps look the best ,I needed more height and the ARE Mx series is the nicest of the mid-height caps to me.

That is exactly the cap I'm looking at, too. Are you still stock height on the suspension? What is the height of the top of the cap?

I already miss my truck cap from my '17 F250. I had an A.R.E. TW series. I loved it.

Your cap/truck combo looks very nice!

Very nice

I went with the ARE z series so that it looked totally oem with the edgeless glass all around .
Unfortunately, z series is only avail in cab height.

how did you get the frameless glass? Or is it just not an option on long beds?

Hi Tropic, They call the option Side Vent windows. You should be able to order with long bed.

when I bought my z series, they used the door sticker color code so it was an exact match.

Just put on my ARE Z series topper/cap on Saturday. It's not the MX Series but has anyone noticed how close the topper/cap is to the bed of the truck? On the back end, on either side, there is hardly enough room to slip a piece of paper between the topper and truck bed. Do folks just accept the fact their bed paint will get scratched or is there something I can do to make the gap a little larger to prevent it shifting and rubbing?

The ARE dealer did take my door sticker code and vin. I'm just worried because my painter did the same thing when I had some paint match done and it turned out alot brighter. Now I'm in the process of having him fix it.
