I want to make a suggestion before you get a nasty surprise: At night get into the bed and close just the cover. Have a TRUSTED friend or family member using a flashlight shine it around the hinge area in the front. Look for light near the corners. If you see ANY light you will have a leak. Using some silicon caulking seal the holes.
This can happen if you have a plastic bed liner with the front of it going over the front of the bed. I Had to have my bedliner trimmed due to leakes in the front. Was at wits end before I found out where the water was coming in from.
Looks real nice. Hope you have it and the truck a long time.

The covers are real nice if you do not use the bed for much hauling. When properly installed they will not leak at all (mine was not properly installed). Not sure if they help wit fuel economy though I did not test it myself after mine was installed (got it installed on my truck 3 days after I got my truck from the dealer new).

Will do tonight, thank you. And I just got the truck back from paint since I've had the Ram new since 2002 and plan on lifting it to 6 - 12 and ether 37 to 40's. Not sure I'll tackle it when the time comes down the road.

looks good

:peace:

Thanks Matt. Yes thats for sure. And I'll be installing the Led tailgate bar hopefully this weekend. Ill probably bolt it in.

Looks great! I'm still toying with getting one m'self.

Thank you, now I can throw stuff back there and not worry about it getting stolen. And no more trash back there unless I'm heading to the dump.

I do plan on still taking trash back there to haul to the dump. The good thing is I don't have to strap it down anymore:peace:
