I'm contemplating this but I want to see what kind of caps looks best. I really prefer a high topper. I have a regular one but it's the wrong color and I will have to sand it down and then paint it. I don't want to go through the hassle only to not like it in the end..
So, let's see some pictures....

 

Here is my old truck. I miss it everyday

I have never liked duallys with caps.

But I liked Britts.

 

One more picture

I don't know what it was about your truck Britt, but I never liked caps (can't pull a CN) or red trucks. But I always liked yours. A lot. And it's making me want to get new crossbars for the Yakima rack in my closet and put it on the truck... I've got a longbed and still have to pull stuff out to put the bikes in the bed.

 

That is nice. The cap I have has lots of window on the sides too but it has a couple inches of fiberglass at the front too. Other than that it is very similar to the one pictured. I also need a new rear window for it and the mfr wants around $600 for a replacement. I can get one made out of Lexan for $175.00 and then put all the hardware from the broken one on it but I also don't have a key for the lock. It looks like it has an auto opener but I don't have a controller for that either.
I don't know, I may just get a new one. I just don't want to shell out hundreds of dollars only to be unhappy with the finished product and then go out and buy a new one anyways....

 

how much weight could be set on that rack on the cap?, btw, really nice truck, i like it a lot

 

Here's our 98.

I don't really care for caps either, but we need one for all the crap we carry around that can't get wet.

I had one on my 98 dually (Same exact truck as yours Chaikwa)and I was always taking it off and putting it back on. It was nice having the option...
I think I'm going to start sanding mine down to get it ready to paint. I am way too tight to get it painted at a paint shop so I will be doing it with spray cans. Fortunately I can get Dodge Bright White paint at just about every auto parts store around. I hope it looks good when I'm done. Can you get clearcoat in a spraycan too?

 

Here's mine with the infamous IBCT.

 

Mike, the window latch was intended to be wired to unlock with the key fob. Thats the way it worked as long as I knew its history with the previous owner. I never had a key for it.

 

Here's mine. Got it off right now and the 5er hitch in.

 

best i could do

 

Thanks Iker. I actually had the blue one on the truck for a couple of days so I know what it looks like. It just looks completely different when it's a different color. The cap actually works well with the lines of the truck. I like it. It would be awesome if I could just hit the key fob and the latch would automatically lock or unlock. Unfortunately I know it will not work like that without some work. I think I'm just going to fab up a whole new window and latch system as it looks like a pain to switch the old stuff over to the new window...
