Identify this half cap

[JTdiRtyD]

Can anyone identify this half cap? I myself haven't come across this when searching for options, so I wonder if it isn't available from a US diatributor. Looks like a mini-OVS cap.

EDIT: Of course after I post this it starts showing up in searches from AliExpress. Description says it's aluminum, but I find that hard to believe since every other full size design I've seen like this is steel.

Would love it if @SmartCap would make a short / half height like this with glass and side open panels just like their standard size.

Agreed, except I wouldn't want the glass panels.

I'm thinking I'm going to end up with the Rebel Offroad XPLOR half rack, and then I'll have my own aluminum panels cut to enclose it vs buying their panels.

Please post pics if you do, would look awesome

That's pretty cool.

I like that a lot! I don't have a RTT but a couple of HF rifle cases on top would look sharp.

I want a half rack so I can keep my RTT low enough to clear the garage door, but I want it enclosed to keep gear out of the elements and secured. I've drawn up designs that have opening side panels, and honestly wouldn't be difficult to build (I've already built a full sized one), but as I get older I'm finding the value in time saved is starting to outweigh cost savings.

American Adventure Lab makes a half height canopy like that. The Pic you posted looks like a Chinese copy. A good looking copy though. Try Alibaba and see what pops up.

Oops...you already did that.

I did the same when I had a RTT. I built a half rack and was able to fit into the garage. But it was super heavy and over built. The more I look at this half-topper, the more i like it. I couldn't build anything like this for the price. There is value in unboxing something, installing it, and getting on the road within the hour.

I have the Rebel Offroad Xplore half height rack with their panels. I picked it up used for a steal. I have not added any molle panels yet.

@JTdiRtyD i reached out to one of the sellers. Waiting to hear back on shipping costs. It looks like there is a price break for multiple units

I have that rack and I've been very happy with it. I haven't enclosed it but that should not be hard to do. You'll need some hardware of course. When I got my XPLOR rack I also ordered a second hardware pack. It's come in handy when adding the side panels to the rack.

I've been contemplating trading my full size zRoadz rack for a 1/2 rack
