ABSTRACT:
An attaching system for a lift-roof cover pivoting substantially about a fixed forward wall upper edge via application of rear hatch technology of the prior art for conventional cab high covers together with attachment means in the form of linkages. The attaching system for mounting to a load bed supports multiple functions providing convenience in distribution and installation processes; in particular facilitating use of processes employed for conventional caps with respect to shipping and storage. The system includes lift-roof to forward wall stop and side retainer means supporting improved functional integrity and security. Also included are draw latches supporting levels of operating convenience demanded for lift-roof applications. Simplified manufacturing adaptation of a conventional cap is supported by pre-assembly of key subassemblies. Capability for completing all functional adjustments before shipping supports installation simplified to levels suited to needs of multiple location installers experienced only with conventional covers of the prior art.
