Toyota 79 Series Canopy
The Alu-Cab Explorer Canopy relocates your usable cargo space into a secure canopy structure above the ute tray. Its roof rails provide a practical mounting point for compatible accessories. The lightweight aluminium construction also keeps the overall canopy weight to approximately 90 kg for this single-cab version. This makes the Alu-Cab Explorer Toyota 79 series canopy suitable for owners who need storage without choosing a bulky setup.
Installation Note
For the best fit, the mounting hardware is designed to attach directly to your LandCruiser 79 Series truck bed. If a bed liner is fitted, it may need to be removed or modified to allow direct mounting and ensure proper installation.
Material and Care
The LC79 Alu-Cab Explorer canopy uses lightweight aluminium construction with a durable finish. Aluminium offers useful impact resistance while keeping the structure relatively light. Stainless steel hardware helps resist corrosion in outdoor conditions. The canopy also uses durable seals around the doors to help protect stored equipment from dust and moisture. Inspect mounting hardware and fasteners regularly, especially after extended off-road travel.
