Built to last and easy to use, the Supertop collapses to store behind the cab and allows unrestricted access to the bed. The kit includes a soft top, removable windows and powder coated Belt-Rail frame system for quick and complete installation.
Features:
Bestop's Supertop for Truck replaces bulky camper shells and tonneau covers by providing the benefits of both in one unique system. Supertop covers the complete bed and stands cab height to offer the same storage space as a camper shell. And it features the flexibility and durability of a tonneau cover, folding away when not in use. The top requires just one person for an easy, no-drill installation and can even increase fuel efficiency up to 10 percent by cutting down on tailgate drag.
The top folds away easily using Bestop's industry-leading bow-release system. The bow system also makes for quick top removal.
Supertop features patented sliding Belt-Rail system for mounting and installs easily with four clamps that attach directly to the vehicle bed for a secure fit. Supertop is made with durable, weather-resistant fabric and powder coated hardware for long life.
The top comes equipped with heat-sealed, DOT-approved vinyl windows in 31 percent tint. Heavy-duty zippers on all windows make removal and attachment simple. Side panels also attach with zippers for effortless installation and removal.
A rear tailgate bar enables user to open the tailgate without unzipping or removing the rear window. The rear window can also be rolled up and secured with elastic garters for bed access with no need to open the tailgate.

Built to last and easy to use, the Supertop collapses to store behind the cab and allows unrestricted access to the bed. The kit includes a soft top, removable windows and powder coated Belt-Rail frame system for quick and complete installation.We live in Portland, OR, where it rains a lot for about 8 months of the year. The first few months, our Topper was great! Then Summer came and we decided to put the top down (collapse it). When the rain season began again, we put the top back up. To our surprise it was leaking horribly through the seams and through the fabric. We contacted etrailer and they said we should contact Bestop directly. Bestop said that etrailer sold us the wrong model for our truck and they would not honor the warranty. We went back to etrailer and they were happy to replace our Topper for us with one condition - we pay for return shipping. Well, it turns out, return shipping would cost us over $400! That is more than half of what we paid for our Topper. We gave up and decided it was not worth it. I DO NOT recommend this Topper or Bestop in general. eTrailer was responsive, but unfortunately their return policy makes it unfeasible to return a bulky item like this. Very frustrated with the product and warranty policy. DO NOT BUY.
The biggest piece of garbage! Even worse than their jeep tops. I will definitely be sending this product back and will never buy bestop brand again.
Did the job as expected. Provided the flexible covering we needed on the cross country move. Latching system on the windows an rear flap could be improved..
Fitment was so so. Back of bed where canvas meets tailgate there is a 3/4 gap. Other than that it works for my needs.
I bought this as a gift for my son - and he absolutely loves it. The cover fits tightly, and the quality is excellent. He loves the zip off "windows" and that the cover folds completely forward. It is exactly as described.
Installed in an hour and half. As it was only 70 degrees. It was a tough stretch, but I got it. The only think I wish was that the window near the cab would open. Good quality product. Looks great.
Great top for my truck and very durable, exactly what I was looking for.
Great product and the communication between me and the staff were excellent. It was a pleasure dealing with them. The product was pretty easy to figure out as well.
Thank you for the prompt delivery. Looks awesome on my Tacoma!
etrailer support is amazing! I received the first top with the top ripped where the snaps attached to the top.
After I sent them pictures, they had me send the bad kit back, and right away I received the 2nd kit. Everything went well as you can see in the picture. One person can lower it, deliver tall objects, then raise the top back up without having to remove the top off the support rails.
This topper is not as convenient and user friendly as described. The side windows can not be fully opened for ventilation. Just the side zippers for apx 2 " air gap. To open the back window, you have to unassemble the back bar then to roll it up is obviously bad for the plastic window. Same goes for putting anything taller than 20" in the back of bed- including my dog, bar has to be removed. Not convenient. The rubber that runs along front and back of topper doesn't fit into bed of truck, so air gap and easy for rain to get in. Would not buy this again. Great idea, just needs to be more user friendly,more thought out.
Great addition to my Super Duty. When I ordered the newer version was unavailable to I went with the previous model (newer model does not have side windows and a few other minor changes). I like having the side windows as it makes it easier to see when getting gear in and out of the truck bed. The topper is VERY weather proof. I have driven it through a couple torrential downpours and very little if any water made it inside. Installation was easy and putting it on and off the truck is easy (easier with 2 people just because of the bulk of the unit). This is perfect for us when travelling with our Airstream to keep items protected from the elements. It is tall enough to accommodate bikes in a homemade rack (front wheels off).
Overall I love the product and the idea, but I’m not happy with quality and finish. Needs more work to be the product it describes to be.
The pros:
Ton of space. I can put so much in bed of my truck now. Especially having a fifth wheel hitch in bed of truck, I still have the space to put other things. Great for shopping or leaving stuff in bed and not feel like it will go missing. Still have not camped with it but I look forward to.
Able to take apart alone without help like with other bed campers. Takes about 30 min but it can legit be done by one person.
Lots of light inside during day. I’m glad I got one with window but at times I wish it was without for more privacy. I’m split on that.
If you have a dog it’s great. Also, when you remove windows inside and back you just have roof to protect from sun with tons of air. Super cool.
The cons:
NOT water proof. If you have things inside that can’t get wet… in rain they will. Leaks everywhere. Not horrible but everything you don't want to get wet will be wet. Still need a water tight tote for clothes and electronics.
The walls can not support highway speed. So I had to add broom sticks across frame on indie to give windows support otherwise I feel like they will get sucked in and ripped off.
Not sealed. Dirt and dust gets in through the corners of camper. As well that vacuum issue. So the corners of windows and and frame have big gaps where LOTS of dirt gets in. Do not follow anyone on dirt road. Everything inside will have a coat of dirt.
If the canvas has no holes on stitching and seals are better it will be a great product. Also, if you have a bedliner (like rihnoliner like I do) forget getting velcro to stick to front for securing to truck. I had to buy a 1”X1” aluminium angle iron and rivet it to bed of truck. Then to that smooth surface I used the velcro tape. That’s only way. I can add picture of that when I get a minute.
I thought after it got wet a few times and was on truck for a few months the holes on roof would close up, but they did not. Holes where stitching is leaks water.
Overall I still love it, and would buy it again, but quality and build is just not there. I take mine apart once a month to pull my fifth wheel and having the ability to do that alone without help is still worth it for me.
It’s a nice looking topper. But I had difficulty putting it together. The top poles with holes punched in them for quick release extensions had large burrs. I had to file out each hole. Also the back window took three people pulling on it to get it stretched enough to get to the passenger side zipper. I’m hoping that after time and some hot weather it will stretch and form better and be more user friendly.
Fantastic cover!!! wife bought it for me, I can keep the truck bed dry, and still fold it forward to use my truck as a truck. price was good, workmanship superb,easy instal, only isue I had with it was the clamps were of no use, bo I bolted the rails to the bed, no big deal. thanks I.ll get 1 for my next truck!
good material!!
The windows, need to be 1" or 1/2" bigger, so when you start driving the wind won't open them from the top of each window; from time to time you have to adjust the upper channels were you clip the windows cause the wind open them little by little.
If you change the idea of the upper channels for a third zipper will make it stronger against the wind.
I purchased the canvas "topper" for my 2014 Toyota Tacoma. I wanted something that was lighter than a conventional fiberglass topper. I also wanted something that i could move or remove easily to haul taller objects in the back (Motorcycles).
Installation was recommended for 1.5 hours. I took my time and did it alone, it was almost exactly 1.5 hours. If possible I recommend 2 people to install. The canvas is tight when new and some stretching was in order.
Once installed i spent the next day driving through rain for a total of 312 miles. No issues with leakage or no extra wind noise.
Overall I would give it a 10 out of 10. It exceeded my expectations.
Lastly e trailer made the transaction very smooth and delivered it super fast and in great shape. They continue to make me a lifetime customer.
Prompt service, good product with straight forward instruction.
I bought this Toyota FJ40 with no top dint want to spin to much on a hard top but still needed a top, so I opted for a soft top, did my homework on the internet and came across ETRAILER.
I'm glad I found them, got the best deal and fast delivery. The good fit just made my truck look much better.
Cheaper than the bestop website! Super quick easy service and shipping.. Even out to Hawaii
The quality of the bestop that was on my Jeep is why I chose to get one for my truck instead of the other brand. Etrailer was great to deal with. They matched a lower price that I had found online, and got the top shipped out immediately even late on a Friday afternoon. It showed up on Wednesday, earlier than predicted. Now for the top... I expected a great fit and easy installation. The rails and bows were simple, But the bed on my Dodge is wider at the front than the rear. The top is made for the narrower width, so the rails barely sit on top of the bedrails, exposing the stake pockets on the bed, and making the whole thing look goofy. Highly disappointing! The way side panels attach is another bad design. I expected a zipper across the top, like the jeep tops, but the plastic j channel set up was a real pain to keep in place. Im thinking maybe I should've ordered the Softtopper.
1970 Toyota Land Cruiser Good top, quick shipping and a fair price. Easy to install and looks good. The only drawback is the area above the doors where they meet the top leaks in the rain. (Using Bestop half-door uppers on Aqualu lower half-doors) Hate it looks so much like a Jeep but there aren't a lot to choose from.
Directions were terribly inaccurate, spacer needs to go in the rear clamp, set screws are a terrible fit due to burs and powder coat over the threads, rear bar had the seal installed backwards allowing water in. Spent most of the two hours deburring the holes drilled for the connectors. Material is very high quality but components are lacking. Not happy at all, should have been an hour install, I have the best top Jeep top and am very happy with it but this install was a mess. Needs improvement.
