dont take my word for it but in my foggy memory i tried this style a few years back and the forward slope of the shell coupled with the stright up back and flared ridge on the top of the cab it would not fit. it was to close for my comfort at the top. if you have access to the shell try it on and see how it looks before you buy it.

I was worried about the flare myself. Guess the best way is to test fit.
