Bed Cap Repair

[beepbeepmyredjeep]

I'm going to be picking up the bed cap for my MJ soon. It's sitting at my dad's right now under the deck.

 

I'm going to replace the roof vent as well as a couple of the the plastic side windows.

 

The roof vent I should be able to replace with an RV vent. In fact I think the cap didn't originally have a vent, and my dad installed one.

 

The plastic side windows I'll replace with plexiglass.

 

My question for everyone is, what's a good waterproofing sealant to use? I want to make sure I do this right and don't get any leaks. :thumbsup:

DAP Aquarium Silicon.

 

You can sink the truck, and leave it sunk and the sealant won't get gummy...it's for aquariums (thus the name) :smart:

 

Any decent silicon sealer should do you fine but that's the most extreme.

Be weary with using plex for the windows, depending on what type you chose, it could yellow out in a few years with heavy sun.

Thanks for the warning. I'm probably going to use some sort of tinted plexiglass, to keep inside cool.
