I'm looking at a new 3500 SRW and currently have a 2015 3500 SRW. I have a Leer canopy that that is only couple years old and was wondering if it will fit the newer trucks. Have the beds changed any between 2015 and 2020? This is for 8' beds.
 
From what I've seen in videos and a few up close, nothing looks to have changed as far as the rails and curves of the tailgates. I believe all that changed is the sides and the tail lights.
 
Google the bed dimensions on both trucks and compare. My SB 3rd Gen Leer topper fit a 4th Gen SB, just slope of rear window didnt match the slope of the front of topper. That's about the best I can do to help.

Cheers, Ro

I was going to ask this question out there for a 3rd gen LB. I have a Leer Top from my 04 LB and was curious if it would fit the 2020. I tried to put it on last night but the bed rail seems to be wider on the 4th gens, it seem like it would fit but didn't know if i needed a spaced since the form (cross sectional bedrail slope) is a little different and as was mentioned the cab slope is not the same.
 
If the fit appears to be good enough, you could mark the portion of the lip that prevents fitment and cut it with at jigsaw as long as there is sufficient lip to keep the cover in place.

If you're not comfortable, some topper sales will take a trade if you want something reaaly good fit and finish.

Please let us know what you decide and provide pics.

Cheers, Ron
 
I know that the CHMSL sticks out farther on the newer trucks... When I put a Leer SuperSport on my 18', It had a notched pocket where the CHMSL would fit. If your current Leer does not have the pocket and your new rig has the CHMSL that sticks out.... It won't fit unless you swap the CHMSL to the non-camera version.

Here's a picture I found on the web that shows the pocket for CHMSL clearance...

I remember when I sold the 06' MegaCab and went with the 18' MegaCab... My Leer SuperSport cap would have fit on the 18'....bed wise, But I'd have to delete the CHMSL which had the camera in it. So the cap went with the 06' and I bought the updated version Leer SuperSport with CHMSL pocket.
 
I went to the Leer site and checked, I don't think it will fit. In fact, I don't think they have anything that fits a 2020 SRW Long Bed. OTOH, I could be doing it wrong.....

Of course, I'm thinking Caps. Not sure what a canopy is.
 
yeah, I have a 5er and a gooseneck trailer and spend more time taking it on / off that I would use it if it fit but I am not looking to buy a new one. Looks like I will try to sell it to someone that has a 3rd gen. Too nice a top to let go to the dump or put in the woods. I'll have my buddy throw it on FB with my TST and the other things I did not let the dealer have... :)
