i dont get any leaks in mine either, its a 35x60 also. you just cant halfass the install and make little mods that take about 5 min to do.

the one i got i purchased like 4+ years ago. It leaked because the actual top was about an inch away from closing at the frame.. i contacted streetbeat about it and nothing ever happened.. so i put towels up in there.. i have since installed street beat tops and they fit decent and alot better construction. but if i was going to (which i am) i would not buy from them again.

I got mine from Streetbeat(35X35) as well and dont have ANY problems with water leaks(even on the Xcab hump in the roof. My only complaints are that when I'm driving at freeway speeds the latch makes HELLA noise and also the little plastic tracks that the actual ragtop slides open and closed on are F**KIN cheap and come unscrewed pretty easily.

ive got a streetbeat and no leeks but the locking sucks!!!!! you would think that how lowng they have been making them they would fix that part but i have had mine on my taco for five years 30x40 and it just takes a lot of dubble measuing

i dont really have problems with my latch, more anoying then anything. if you havent already grind the bolt flat that the middle handle goes on so you can get it nice and tight, and the ones on the sides get them as tight at you can and you should be good. it takes a couple of min to close and latch it up but well worth it for the big hole in the roof.
