I just bought one for my new 24 LT Trail Boss, Thanks for the heads-up tips. I can't wait to get it installed.
Congrats on your new truck! Also, check out my video about the infotainment system, that may be helpful as well.
Thanks for watching. I hope all of my videos are helpful to people or at least a way to exchange ideas. Stay tuned!!!
Well done sir. Very articulate and well explained. Enjoy your new truck. I went with the new F150 and am currently looking for a bed cover. Appreciate the video.
Thanks for watching, luckily I really like making videos for the work I put in doesn't quite seem like work. Stay tuned, more to come!
Brother, I just installed my Bak X4ts and squared it off down to the 16th, and I've been dealing with constant fitment issues. Your videos helped me address a few. I decided to measure each rail, and it turned out that they cut the right rail 1" shorter than the left. 😅 Bak will be sending me a replacement rail
Holy! An inch difference that’s crazy. I’m glad they are making it right but you would think they wouldn’t leave the factory that way. I’m glad my video was able to help, it’s part of why I do this. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!
I had an issue with the plastic on my ex's ram tailgate hitting the cover, as it had warped; initially I tried various shims, etc and sanding the plastic. new plastic solved it.. easy to find on amazon. Similar warping starting to show on my F150, but no problems yet with the cover
Ah fair enough. For some reason after all of that I’m not having any issues right now. 🙏🏾. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!!
It’s rubbing on my ram tailgate as well the top part of the tailgate
That same problem was found on my top as well, it was damaged during shipment or when boxed at factory.
Thanks for watching, have you reached out to Real Truck / BAK? They have made it right from everything I've heard.
@@GeoRides114 Yes, they are great responding to any warranty items. Keep on enjoying your cover too!
Thanks for the video. I needed to see how the corner cap came off. Saved me from breaking it
Thanks for watching. Glad you got something out of the video. Stay tuned for more!!
Had the same piece left side broken off on mine. Called Real Truck and they said they would send out 2 pairs. Great waited about 10 days and the package was dropped off by FedEx. Turned out the warehouse guys sent 4 pieces all for the passenger side. Called back and explained what happened and waited another two weeks for the next package of 2 pairs both left and right side. Bought the x4ts rails which they sell separately and been 2 weeks since I received the new rails with a completely opened box and no parts, end caps are missing from T slots. Received in a Saturday so called Real Truck Monday. That was 3 weeks ago and still no parts. Their customer service is great on the phone but getting stuff shipped has not been good. Will have to call again Monday really need the end caps.
All this is unfortunate…makes you wonder what’s going on where these items are stored. Hopefully your experience improves! I appreciate you watching and stay tuned for more!
Nice video my friend. How has it performed in heavy rains? Thanks for any info as I am trying to decide on a new cover for a 2024 Ford I have on order.
In heavy rain there is a minor amount of water in the bed afterwards. Very minor. The only things I store in the bed is my emergency tools and golf clubs. Neither is wet after the rain. I also installed the BedRug XLT Bed Mat for protection and separation from the bed floor. It also keeps my items out of any moisture. I shot a video about that as well and really paying attention long term. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!
So I have the X2 and it’s rubbing on my 2020 ram limited tail gate door and it’s rubbing through the plastic wear and tear 😢
That's annoying for sure. Luckily, my cover isn't rubbing anymore, maybe it decided to act right once I broadcast that it was an issue. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!!
Perfect timing, both of mine broke when putting it up on the rails.. The piece you Put in the rolling part of the cover was the broken part still in there?
Love that you got something out of the video. For me the part that broke was the large rectangle cover. The pin and retaining clips were broken. The part that goes into the roll
was fine, it’s a bulkier piece. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!!
Seeing reviews that they come broken or with the rails diff lengths making the cover not fit the bed squarely. Did u have any quality control issues with urs when it arrived. (Aside from the broken corner cap). Great vid
Thanks, I appreciate you watching. I didn’t have any other quality issues with mine thank goodness. I think if it comes wrong BAK will make it right. Not what you want to do but their customer service was excellent. Thanks again and stay tuned!!
My right rail came out to be 1" shorter than the left. The back portion of the left rail was rivited incorrectly, causing it to be unsquare in relation to the front part of the rail resulting in me having to shim the back left rail out between the bed and rail by 5/16. I also had to shim the right rail in various areas so i could get the cover to be square with the lock engagement points. The installation took me all day, resulting in me having to remove and reinstall every numerous times. Never again. Oh yeah, and my clip broke off yesterday, and the bulkhead gasket they included shrunk, causing 3/8 gaps, which allowed a lot of yesterdays rain to get into the bed.
@@piesareround man, sorry to hear you had such a bad experience. I’m sure they’ll make it right or at least I think so. Keep us updated!
The exact same plastic corner piece broke during installation for me too. Replacement part is on its way. Seems like an obvious weak spot for such an otherwise well made cover.
Agreed, I’m not sure why they manufactured it that way but maybe their thought process is it has to have a weak point of some sort. Maybe their next edition will be better like they improved the X4. Thanks for watching and commenting!! Stay tuned for more!!
I put a shim under the rail. It was very minimal.
Fair enough, it seems now that I messed with it and the weather changed it’s fine….what do you do….?
What happens if you close the tailgate first and then lock the cover?
Thanks for watching, sometimes it makes it difficult to latch the cover in place. What I have found now after it being installed for a while is it only seems to hit when I'm closing the multifex tailgate. Something about that angle that is different than the regular tailgate.
I'm sorry, but if a $1,000.00+ tonneau cover broke during installation. I would have sent that POS back to Real Truck for a refund.
For me, the broken corner piece was a minor issue. Had there been other structural problems I may have. It’s been great so far and the tailgate issue is no more. Can’t explain it but it clears with no problems. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!
