Ok so the quick version is my 10 foot triton trailer got tossed in a wind storm a couple weeks ago. The clam shell top got destroyed but the trailer itself is fine. Insurance wants an estimate to put a new top on it. The problem is no one and I mean no one i've called (triton wont return my calls) can give me a price on a replacement cap. Looking for options (ie manufactures ) that i can get a quote and hopefully an actually top from. Any advice / info on other makes of caps would be appreciated. Oh and I already called talked with Canvas works and getting a quote from them. But i'd like to replace it with a hard sided cap like the original if possible.

Get some fabricator to give an outrageous quote to duplicate it. Theyll prob take your trailer and try to get whatever they can. And then you could buy a new hybrid.

It won't be cheap for them to replace all hinges shock struts frame work alluminum exterior and then lights and wiring including labour. At some point they should be giving up a new trailer. Or some sort of middle ground where you pay a small amount to upgrade.

what I did was they totaled the trailer , I bought back the trailer same as you top damaged.For I think $300 ,turned it into my utility trailer and bought a new 12',
There used to be a company called Bearcat that made aluminum clam tops for trailers. Not sure if they're in business anymore. Worth a Google search.
Agree with Go Bruins Go. Tell your insurance company you can not locate a source. Tell them to find a source, otherwise you will have one custom made. Pretty sure they will not like the quote and total the trailer, then you can buy it back on the cheap and use it for a utility trailer. Take the difference and buy a hybrid.
