Go Rhino RB20 Running Boards & Truxedo Sport Cover

All,

400 miles on the 2020 and so far I have put on two main components to my truck.

Truxedo TruXport Cover
Go Rhino RB20 Running Boards


Notes for those interested:

The rail system makes the tonneau cover install insanely easy, though you WILL need thicker gasket material for the non tailgate end of the bed.

Go Rhino running boards may not be "true". The welding process clearly warped my driver side and I ended up nicking my paint under the passenger door before I realized how far off it was. A few jumps on the back portion of the board fixed this issue once everything was titghtened.

I ordered everything off Amazon as the prices were extremely competitive and ended up spending just under $750 on both items.

Install times were 1 hour a piece respectively, and I take my time....ish.

 

I have the same setup also from Amazon. I got a Line X sprayed in so I have the weather stripping attached to the cover itself, not the head of the cab. Seems to seal well. If you have a poor seal, either double up or buy a thicker weather strip. I bought some on Amazon also, as I installed it on the bed and then got the bed liner. I had to get the weather strip off the head of the bed, and that was a pain. Hind sight I would have just attached it to the cover itself.

I also got the RB 20s and like them. Mine were not warped at all. Kind of a pain to install, due to my OCD of making the two sides symmetric and perfectly aligned. Love the large foot platform.

Other things to consider would be a bedliner if you don't have one, TRD skid plate, center console safe, and driver grab handle. Awesome upgrades. Sparks Parts sells the safe and grab handle as a kit. Easy install on both. The TRD skid is a pain in the butt, moreso than the Tacoma version, but doable. I used the misses for the lifting into place part as I don't have a floor jack. Oh, and Black Tailgate inserts

I don't remember the parts number for the safe nd grab handle, but if you look up TundaDude on youtube he has a video with the part numbers at Sparks.
