X2 on that. I don't have a topper on anything I own anymore, But LEER and A.R.E pretty much own the market on fiberglass toppers as far as quality goes. I had a Raven fiberglass topper on my 94' when I bought it some years back, it was a very good quality unit! |

Re: 02 Silverado, cab height topper
I had an ARE for a LONG time.
Bouncing around my farm, with all my crap in the back, I never had any problems cept the brake light not working right(who needs those, right?) I had even drilled holes in the top and had work lights and 2 offroad lights on it.(2 works faceing back, 2 to the sides, and the offroads to the front)

Re: 02 Silverado, cab height topper
I put a Leer 100XL on my 99 when I bought it new. Never had a problem with it in all these years. I like the headliner option. It's just thin carpet glued on the inside of the fiberglass, but it sure makes for a nice topper. Can't stand the rough chopper gun fiberglass interior without the headliner. Just ordered another 100XL yesterday for my 2012 Sierra I have on order. I think it's still the best looking topper out there.

Re: 02 Silverado, cab height topper
I went the easy way....picked up a used topper. I dont know too much about the brand(snugtop), but it is in decent condition. Will need a little paintwork to match my truck, but for $150 I dont feel too bad about the black top on the dark grey truck crazyL
