Re: Trazer Cap?
Poor guy probably didn't know what a can of worms he opened up with that one little sentence about factory option.

Re: Trazer Cap?
So then, my 1/2 top is a dealer installed option or a period correct aftermarket part? It does have a MTC serial number. Could it be listed on the SPID

Re: Trazer Cap?
The way I read this whole discussion is, the half top was an aftermarket part, that could be ordered with the truck, which would qualify for a dealer install. But as far as who installed it, I think only the guy who did it knows. It could have been put on years after the truck was built, by anybody. If your spid don't list any top at all, I would guess it was ordered without the top and put on at the dealer. Do you know if your radio antenna is original? That's one way you could tell if it was a special ordered truck or off the lot. They used to ship them to the dealers without a radio, and when someone bought it and wanted a radio, they put it in at the dealer, and used a telescoping antenna. If it was ordered with the radio, it was intalled at the factory with a one piece stainless antenna. Sorry 44 but I think it all boils down to just a guess.

Re: Trazer Cap?
The ratchet strap was to pull the windshield, I thought I had alignment issues, but the more I looked I found out the floor was to high. Once I hung from the drip rail the top dropped into place, but I will admit getting the three bolts into the visor mount was abit of a task...
Looks like you used up your quota
