    Hey guys, did a search and seems like these covers get good reviews on here. It is going on my 19 Platinum with Deck rails. Also has Line-X Premium installed in bed.

    I am looking at the roll ups just because I do not want to spend $1500+ on a good retractable cover right now. Not a huge fan of the tri folds for some reason and these roll ups look like a really good and cheaper alternative for about $500.

    What is everyone's thoughts on this cover?

    I considered a reinforced roll-up like this for my 2019 CM 1794. My worry was the possibility of getting punctures in the fabric which would cause leaks. For this reason, I got the BakFlip MX4. But it's a tri-fold. It came with adapter plates to lower the deck rail system a bit. It suits my needs perfectly.
    This is just my opinion. Good luck with whichever tonneau you decide to get!

    Hey guys, I ended up ordering this cover tonight. I am getting my line x installed next Thursday. Give it a couple days to cure up nicely then install this cover. It is suppose to be a thicker and more durable material like a convertible top. Here in a week or so I will post some pictures and how it went.

    I'm also looking into this as well. Don't want that big box the roll ups roll into. Won't be able to haul dirt bikes. So onto the next dilemma...My wife was going to get the Pro X15 for me for my birthday next week. It looks like the deck rail cleats are rendered useless with this system. What good is a truck bed cover if I can't haul my dirt bikes in it?

    I’m seriously considering one too. Father in law has a Lo Pro QT that he is strongly recommending. The X15 is tempting tho...

    I have the Sentry Pro which is the hard-roll-up version of the X15. When I put my bike in I take it off, it just has 2 clips in the front, the rails stay on.

    She was looking to get me that one. I asked kindly not to. The difference in cost between your cover and mine is going towards my Ray 10s. ;)

    @r1-superstar Did you install washers to get the rails level? I've been meaning to do it with mine because I think it will help with the cover latching.

    Not yet. I did try one clamp to see if it helped. I'm unsure if the washers need to be installed with the clamps. Here is a picture I got from the internet showing someone using a round spacer. It looks like it will put more even pressure on the top part of the clamp and leveling the rail.

    Here is my truck showing no spacer and the latch.

    With one spacer

    And one spacer with adding two more washers. The second picture (just one spacer) looks to be the best as the clamp teeth is flush and the latch is raised a bit.

    I'm thinking one spacer works best to keep the clamp plumb. But as you can see in my pictures, the rail is still not level. Perhaps a shim is needed between the Truxedo rail edge and the bed?

    Thanks that's helpful. What are you using for a spacer in the pics above? I think I'll end up using a round spacer like the one in the 1st pic.

    It was a part from my kids go-kart seat belt. lol I will go to Lowes and find a rectangle block of some sort. That way there is even pressure and clamping surface.

    Having some trouble getting mine level too...I’m going to find some scrap aluminum and make some shims for the clamps.

    I used these. I could not find scrap aluminum and the lengths they sell at Lowes was too spendy.
