Hi team, quick update on the gmc... yes its still going, has about 610,000 on it now. I finally got my hands on some gas struts to lift the topper. Only 15 bucks each from princess auto - love that place. Finding the right place to install them was a challenge, but success! The struts hold the cap up nice and actually hold it down when closed. A video would explain best. No more clamps needed round town, but i will clamp it when on highway.
I reshaped the tail a few months back, cut the corners off and lifted the tail angle slightly. Looks better now. Says me anyways!
