Just installed my Datin Fabrication canopy rack yesterday. The quality is pretty good and it seems very sturdy. I believe I’m the first to have a rack installed over top of a Softopper on the Gladiator. Should make for a very usable space

Can the Softopper fold down with the rack on?

Anyone know if this is a thing that someone can make??
Been asking myself. Even pinged bestop for a softop cover version and they mentioned a weak market for something like this. Was looking at the Maximus-3 sport bar and maybe getting a canvas cover made to fit that.

Got the LEER 100XQ. Really like the OEM looks of it.

Could you share some more pictures of your Leer top? How does the rear glass work/seal to the tailgate?

hey so there is a rubber seal and when you close the rear glass it seals against the tailgate. I’ll try to get better pictures.

Please pardon my stupid question but how does one clean the windows between the gap? Meaning the rear cab window and the front cap window?

Is it possible to carry a bicycle on the tail gate with the back window up?

If it comes with the option, my leer cap on my ford had a removable front window. If not, S.O.L.

The inside window of the LEER cap can be removed with two latched and you can clean the window pretty easily

I’m not sure I understand your question. You mean a bike in the bed with the tailgate down and the window closed ? Or just physically on the tail gate ?

I can actually with both of our bikes in the bed. Mine I remove the front wheel, and my GFs I can fit with the wheel turned and the tailgate and the window closed. I do plan to get a hitch mount so that it’l clears up the bed for me.

Great looking top! I was looking at an ARE, which are nice, but I think I like this Leer better. Seems to match the body lines better and the rear glass has some style cues from the Wrangler back glass.

The ARE doesn't seem to have a color/texture that matches the standard black hardtop (non paint color matched). This Leer looks like it matches very well.

Now if I could just find someone nearby so I could see one in person!
