I realized this while trying to get the topper hatch door to seat properly, there is a dent in the left side top surface of the rear bumper. Just another reason to replace.<br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8249/8552323677_2bb2e46f21.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8246/8552323335_6ced640f75.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8529/8553426608_8c3f1b61ba.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8513/8553425952_a9872f1659.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8391/8552321777_fc06c3b5d5.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;">The "tool box" on the left hand side will become the kitchen. Sand tracks on a hinge will extend the preparation surface. The next job is to pick up some Yakima risers that will fit the Rhino rails installed on the topper, then remove the Maggiolina from the Subaru and mount it to the truck.</span><br style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;"><br style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;">Also, stereo deck showed up yesterday as well as the seat covers. Stereo I am impressed with, hooked it up to an AUX power supply last night and a speaker and its soooooooo much better than stock.</span><img style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; max-width: 100%; vertical-align: bottom; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;" rel="lightbox" src="http://www.expeditionportal.com/for...ountry-Taco-Build/images/smilies/sombrero.gif" class="inlineimg bbc_img"><br style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;"><br style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;">Seat covers look somewhat underwhelming in the box, but I'll give them a try and see what I can do.</span><br style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;"><br style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;">One more quick edit, for those in the area </span><a style="box-shadow: none !important; -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; color: #22229c; padding-right: 13px; background-image: url('http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/images/misc/external-link.png'); background-color: #fafafa; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat;" href="http://scottystrucktoppers.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Scotty's Truck Toppers</a><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; background-color: #fafafa;"> comes recommended by moi. Scotty and his partner were great, took care of me, and even had a good time with my two year old. I felt happy to fork over the dough at the end of our exchange -- good guy, good business.</span>
<br><br>Watch <a href="http://boulder.craigslist.org/rvs/3667527440.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Craig's list,</a> you might be able to land a deal. Buying new has its advantages, but these things are built to last. Might be worth the trouble if you're going to be waiting anyway.<br><br><br>Mouldy said:Looks good. Wish those blasted MGT's didn't cost so much. Thanks for the measurements. Gives me an idea with mine, even though I haven't seen it yet.
<br><br>The RTT sits almost 7.5" above the cab of the truck and about 3.5" above the top of the ARE MX topper. I still plan on installing a low profile roof rack over the cabin area as there is plenty of space there for it.<br><br>Hope that helps,<br><br>SagMouldy said:Looking good Sag. Looks like that topper adds maybe 3 inches above the top of the cab. Can you verify that at all?
<br><br>Yep, I post there as well.highdesertranger said:Saguache have I seen you over at expedition portal? highdesertranger
