This is a discussion thread titled "Clamp-on or bolted for camper shell?", within the Aftermarket Products forum, part of the Technical & Vehicle Assistance Forums category.
What is the thought on attaching camper shells? I won't be removing it and I hope to keep the truck a long time.
I hesitated having it bolted on because they had to drill holes in the rail and I was afraid of rust (live on the coast). The clamps seem a little bit in the way, but I could get used to them as long as they don't let it shift.
The installers lined it up great so I hate to mess with it, but I need to get it done the best way before I start throwing a bunch of gear back there.
Any input on this would be appreciated.
Thanks

All a man really needs for happiness in this world is a good woman, a faithful dog, and a big-a$$ed set of tires on his truck.
