I needed a “cap” for my 2012 TOYOTA Tundra, but definitely did not want to look like every other truck on the road with a traditional fiberglass cap.
The aluminum frame on this is very strong and very stiff and rigid once it’s bolted together. I would suggest using Loctite on all of the threads that do not thread into self-locking nuts.
If your truck does NOT have the bed rail system that bolts up high along the top edges inside the bed, you can still drill holes in the steel edges of the bed. There will be enough hardware in the kit to have two bolts with self-locking nuts on each corner, so it’s not going anywhere.
Having just got my truck, I did not notice it was not equipped with the optional bed rail system installed until after I installed the canopy, but that did not slow me down.
The canvas is a very heavy military grade, and it has a waterproof coating on it. I would highly recommend this product if you don’t want to look like every other truck on the road with a traditional fiberglass cap.
