2001 Tacoma toppers/caps

Anyone know any good bed toppers or caps, ive looked at leer and some other places and they dont have any for the first gen. Thanks!

 

There are many manufacturers that make toppers for a 1st gen DCSB.

Leer included.

Leer 100R and 100XQ are options.

Search the 1st gen marketplace here
or Craigslist. They pop up occasionally.

Or contact a local retailer and prepare to grab your ankles and grit your teeth.

 

Alright thanks! I tried the leer website and put all the info in and none popped up, maybe they dont make them anymore or something.

 

I plugged in 2004 Tacoma, double cab (short bed) and these are the results:

 

Im dumb, i didnt scroll i thought it was 1 per option (like commercial) thanks my man

 

Check out softopper -around 850$
Got one about a month ago but its still in the box.
Light, easy up/down, one person removal

 

I got the 100R 15 years ago. The clearcoat is starting to peel off in spots but all things considered it’s been a good cap. My main complaint is the back window will drain rainwater inside the bed when it’s up, which is not ideal if you live in Oregon. I have been told the 100XQ has a better rain gutter system on the back window. It’s also kinda heavy. It’s a tough two person job to install/remove by hand. If I was to do it over again I would look into a softopper. They didn’t exist when I bought my cap.

 

My 2003 has an ARE CX-series cap on it, put on by the original owner, I believe (I'm the third). It's scuffed and scarred in places, and not perfectly waterproof, but it's surprised me how much I appreciate it. I thought I'd use it once in a while and was looking for a place to park it. Nope. Hasn't been off the truck yet. I'm thinking about replacing what's almost certainly the original perimeter seal later this summer, hoping that might solve a minor (tiny even) water leak at the front bed corners.

These kinds of things show up used all the time and often have a lot of life in them. Start watching Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace in your area -- something will turn up.
