Built Tough for the Trail

Marine-Grade Construction

The OVS Expedition Truck Cap is built to handle the demands of off-road travel and extreme weather. It uses marine-grade stainless steel throughout its frame to prevent corrosion and provide long-term durability. Its textured powder-coated finish not only looks rugged, but it also resists scratches, dents, and rust from road debris and weather exposure.

No-Drill True Fit Technology

Say goodbye to permanent modifications. The cap installs securely without drilling, thanks to Overland Vehicle Systems’ innovative True Fit Technology. This ensures a tight, rattle-free fit that protects your truck bed without altering your factory bodywork, which is ideal for leased vehicles or resale value preservation.

Designed with Overlanders in Mind

All-Weather Sealing

When you're off-road, your gear deserves tough, all-weather protection. That’s why this truck cap for Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 includes automotive-grade weather seals that keep out dust, rain, and snow. Tempered safety glass windows add strength and clarity while maintaining visibility and security.

Ventilation and Climate Control

The integrated air vents provide natural airflow to reduce condensation and keep your gear from overheating on hot days. It's a small detail that makes a big difference on extended trips in diverse environments.

Easy Access and Expandable Storage

Heavy-Duty Hardware

With heavy-duty latches, gas-assisted struts, and secure locking mechanisms, this truck cap ensures easy one-handed access to your bed, whether you're unloading tools or pulling out camping gear.

Modular Roof Rails & Optional Cross Bars

Need to mount a rooftop tent, carry kayaks, or strap down recovery boards? The integrated modular roof rail system makes it easy to customize your setup. Add cross bars and you're ready to load up for any expedition.

Lifetime Value, Guaranteed

Backed by a limited lifetime structural warranty, the OVS Expedition Truck Cap delivers peace of mind for years of adventures. Designed for both GMC Sierra 1500 and Silverado 1500 owners, this truck cap is a smart upgrade that proves its worth on every adventure.

IMPORTANT: GM Trucks with Carbon Pro Trims are NOT COMPATIBLE!

At PeakGear, we understand that serious overlanders need gear that can withstand the severe conditions of remote travel while offering the comfort and reliability of OEM-level integration. That’s why the OVS Expedition Truck Cap for the 2019–2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 with the 5.8 ft bed is built with uncompromising attention to detail.

Every material, joint, and feature serves a purpose, from protecting cargo and enabling rooftop accessories to enhancing trail-readiness with rugged design and functionality.

Let’s break down the standout features and smart design choices that make this rugged truck cap a top pick for serious overlanders.

No Drill Installation

One of the standout benefits of the OVS Expedition Truck Cap is its no-drill installation. This hassle-free setup means you can mount the cap securely without compromising the factory structure of your Silverado or Sierra. It protects resale value, avoids rust-prone drilled holes, and saves you time and effort.

Whether you're outfitting your rig in the driveway or on the trail, this feature ensures a smooth, secure fit without specialized tools or body shop appointments, making it ideal for DIY enthusiasts and pros alike.

Marine-Grade Stainless Construction

Constructed from marine-grade stainless steel, this cap isn’t just strong; it’s built to thrive in harsh environments. Built to withstand salt, moisture, and road sludge, this material shrugs off corrosion, making it ideal for wet riverbeds, snowy backroads, and muggy environments alike. It also contributes to the cap’s long-lasting structural integrity and rugged off-road performance.

Textured Powder Coat Finish

Its rugged textured black finish isn’t just for show; in fact, it adds durable defense against scuffs, sun damage, and corrosion. This finish helps the cap retain its bold aesthetic even after years of punishing overland travel, making it a visual and functional upgrade over basic fiberglass or plastic options.

True Fit Technology

True Fit Technology ensures the cap hugs the bed of your truck with precision. Custom-engineered for the exact dimensions of the Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 (5.8 ft bed), this tech creates a seamless OEM-style appearance while eliminating rattling or misalignment during rough rides. A precise fit also boosts weatherproofing and aerodynamics.

Built-In Air Vent

Ventilation is a critical but often overlooked feature in truck caps. The OVS Expedition Cap includes a built-in air vent that helps regulate internal temperature and reduce condensation, which makes it perfect for preserving gear, tools, or camping supplies. Whether you’re storing electronics, food, or soft goods, proper airflow is key to protecting your cargo from mold or mildew.

Waterproof Seals

Nothing ruins a trip faster than a leaky cap. Fortunately, this unit features robust waterproof seals that form an impenetrable barrier against rain, snow, and road spray. Your gear stays dry and protected, no matter the conditions, giving you confidence when venturing into unpredictable weather.

Heavy-Duty Latches

Every latch on the OVS cap is designed for reliability under pressure. These heavy-duty locking mechanisms provide secure closure, even on rugged terrain. Whether you're traversing desert washes or mountain switchbacks, you can trust your cap won’t come loose or open unexpectedly.

Solid Hinges

The hinges on this topper are built to last. Crafted from high-strength materials, these solid hinges offer consistent and smooth operation even after years of heavy use. Their robust construction means you won’t have to worry about sagging, creaking, or failure on the trail.

Tempered Glass

Safety and visibility go hand in hand with the tempered glass windows featured on this cap. They’re shatter-resistant and designed to meet safety standards while offering a clear line of sight. Whether checking on your cargo or backing into a tight camp spot, visibility is never compromised.

3rd Brake Light

Integrated into the rear of the cap, the third brake light enhances safety by improving your truck’s visibility to vehicles behind you, especially helpful when your tail lights are obscured by gear or terrain. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference in low-visibility conditions.

High-Pressure Struts

Opening your cap should be effortless, and with high-pressure struts, it is. These components ensure reliable lift and hold when accessing gear in the rear compartment, even in colder temperatures or under heavy loads. No more fighting with your cap lid in the middle of a storm.

Modular Construction

The modular design of the OVS Truck Cap allows for extensive customization. Add accessories, racks, or lighting without needing to re-engineer your setup. This flexibility makes it ideal for evolving adventure needs, from solo camping setups to family road trips.

Integrated Roof Rails

The built-in roof rails expand your carrying potential dramatically. Easily mount rooftop tents, storage boxes, or recovery gear. These rails are compatible with both OVS crossbars and aftermarket roof systems, allowing you to fully equip your overland rig. Pair them with our durable cross bars for truck caps to securely support your gear and optimize rooftop space.

Your Silverado or Sierra 1500 is your adventure hub, ready to serve as a campsite, trail partner, and escape route all in one. With the OVS Expedition Truck Cap, you can elevate its real-world utility for everything from off-grid expeditions to daily overland use.

Extended Expeditions & Off-Grid Camping

Its weather-sealed design keeps your gear dry and secure, while its compatibility with rooftop tents makes it ideal for remote base camps. Pair it with robust roof top tents to build a comfortable, elevated sleeping setup right above your bed. Choose between hard shell roof top tents for quick deployment or soft shell roof top tents for lightweight flexibility.

Organize Your Gear, Maximize Space

The interior offers expansive protected storage that transforms your bed into a mobile gear vault. Whether you’re stashing recovery tools, camp supplies, or daily carry equipment, this modular truck topper for Silverado or Sierra adapts to your lifestyle. Create a custom storage system with adventure vehicle storage solutions, durable overland boxes and cases, and vehicle drawer systems to keep everything in place; trail-ready and rattle-free.

Overland-Ready Features

The integrated crossbars open up rooftop utility, allowing you to haul additional cargo or mount tents and awnings for shade and comfort. Add even more off-grid capability with overland awnings and essential off-grid accessories for cooking, power, and recovery.
