Used Top question

F150V898 · #1 05-21-2003, 09:24 AM

I am looking for a high top for the truck bed (to get SUV look and luggage comfort), a used one. Are there places that sell them used? Brand new tops seem to run between 700 and $1200 and I think a used one would be better.

I have asked around and been told that 6' beds of 98 F150 with super cab are unusual and should be custom made, which is bull since I see brand new ones manufactured on the web.

Autowreckers around seem not to carry used tops I can look at.

Thanks

Hey Indy...

I'm not sure what you have but, I've been looking for a lid as well. I have a supercrew and, from the sounds of it, what you might have is for a 6' bed. I thought I'd ask just in case...

I am away from the truck right now and I am not sure, it is the regular (6' ?) bed. I'll have to have my brother measure it for me.
