Tonneau Cover

[hemi killer]

Just bought back my 05 RC in Black and am looking to put a tonneau cover on it and still keep the wing. I know there are several suggestions out there. WHat kind of experience has everyone had and what you you reccomend?

I like my Checkmate.Be aware though you can`t open it when you modify it for the wing.Not for everybody.I just don`t like the wing mounted on top of the tonneau.

I'm still getting compliments on my LT-Sport/Laserlite cover. The stock two-post wing fits right on with a little keyhole clearance annoyance. LT-Sport has had a spotty quality reputation, but meethinks they're cleaning up their act. :rock:

Take a look at www.peragon.com. I bought one and am pleased with it. For the price you can't beat it. It does take some minor modification to get it to fit under the wing but if I can do it anyone can. It's also a bit of a puzzle to assemble but the instructions are good. It folds forward (accordian style) toward the front of the bed. There is a video on their web site. BigDave

Depends on wether you want a soft or hard one. I have the Truxedo Lo-Pro. Probably one of the least expensive ones out there. Fits great under the wing, but you do have to remove the wing in order to roll up the cover.

The gaylord speedster that some fellas on here have is awesome, but I don't think a wing would look good on it.

The Retrax was the best option for me. It comes from the factory pre-cut to fit around the wing, and can be rolled up without removing the wing. It looks good too!

My only b!tch is that it has a tendency to get wavy in the hot sun.

Originally I wanted a soft tonneau, but the only one I found could not be rolled up without removing the wing, and it sits about 1" higher than the bed rails.

The Retrax looks a bit slicker than the soft covers too, IMO.

Thanks everyone looks like I have quite a few options.

I'm not sure if that counts as a 40% club term.

I went with the checkerpro soft one. Had to shim the wing up a quarter of an inch.......no biggy. Cannot rollup but the entire piece can be unbolted off of the bed and taken off in one piece. Paid like $160 or so. Had it two years and still looks new.

from time to time you will see a factory cover with wing on Ebay.....that is the best bet....
