  1. SmartCap Experience. Water Ingress anyone?

    Hallelujah happy days!!!!. Smartcap finally made it right, they're taking this thing back. I guess a BBB Complaint hits a higher tier company official.
  2. SmartCap Experience. Water Ingress anyone?

    Well it's been almost a month and I finally got new seals. Not all of them just some of them. If you get a Customer service representative named "Winnie" be prepared for a poor experience. She still won't answer my question about the missing paint with no primer under the topcoat.
  3. Aftermarket Side Steps?

    Installed the Rough Country E-boards on my hybrid, It's actually easier, the power tap can go up through right next to the battery there is already a blank rubber grommet there. The wife loves them, I hate them. The actuator linkages are not sealed, and have brass bushings that start to make...

    These inexpensive guards (PK389-35R50-P1) rub when installed on my (stock tires) Trailhunter Not badly, just in full turn and the truck is leaning a certain way. Very annoying sound. .
  8. SmartCap Experience. Water Ingress anyone?

    Mine leaked too, smartcap warranty support does not respond. The careless way they installed the seals caused all the problems. The seals pop'd out at almost every attach point.
  9. Any Build Regrets On Your Tacoma?

    The smartcap, it leaks and due to the design, I think it will always require some maintenance to keep it from leaking. Wish I has purchased the Alu-Cab Contour.
