"New" A.R.E. DCU cap. It has the barn doors with windows, thicker outer skin .040, double side doors on both sides, tool boxes on each side and inside lighting. The tool boxes are divided into four sections. 5 Heavy duty SS T handles and locks with security screening over windows. Also has a front window. It sits about 3" above the cab of the truck in height giving the topper some extra head room, and making the side and back doors bigger/taller! $750

Found two of them in a warehouse for sale, got one for me and one for a friend. Friend never paid so its up for sale. I will stress the "new" because it has been sitting in a warehouse for a few years but is new never installed untill the other day when I went ahead and put it on my truck. The one I am keeping is out getting painted.

-One door dent size dent in the lower rear, same size on the lower side door.

-One small dent in the roof that can not be seen when the cap is on the truck.
-Its missing one of the 8 door struts and one post on the drivers rear door used to keep the door open.
-Someone took inventor at the warehouse and wrote on the back doors in sharpie.

Its covered in warehouse dust and as soon as it warms up above freezing I will wash it off and take detailed photos. $750 firm, just need my money back. Can also get it painted any color for $200 more. Fits a shortbed Ford Superduty F250 F350 1999-2010. I will post it here for sale first then the local Craigslist.

NEW this prices out right at $2,499 with paint matched color or $2,199 white. And an option no longer offered at ARE is the .040 heavy skin that this has. Add that to the new price as well!

I can also sell a small trailer to get it home if you don't want to mount it here. HF trailer for $175 if you want it, new they are $300 plus??

Superduty beds are the same inside demintions at the top of the inside rail as pre 99 Fords but the rest is different.

Its 83” long by 74” wide at the front and 72” wide at the back. Between the tailgate is 64.5”.

Was going to do that today but it was just to cold out. Looks like we will get above freezing tomorrow. I will clean this one up and take some pictures with all the doors opened up.
