    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    Update: I just put a 2,300mi road trip on the truck - rain and snow. It looks like I'm all set and fixed with the Sentry CT. No issues with the cover.

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    Alright, Here's the steps I needed to take to fit the Truxedo Sentry CT Tonneau Cover to the Ram 1500 with a multifunction tailgate:

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    They still need to revise the plastic end-caps. On my previous rails, I was hitting the rails on the brackets - on the new rails, there was plenty of clearance, but I still couldnt quite get it to seal. Saw it was now hitting on the plastic endcap to the corner brace. I had to cut that down...

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    The new rails fit. I did have to make one modification to the rail end cap. I'm making a video that should help people in the future. If Truxedo makes one minor change, this would fit perfect out of the box. One thing to note, I'm not sure if the numbers on the rails are a serial number, or...

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    Update, got new rails today. I didn't get a chance to measure them, but they appear to be cut significantly deeper than my original rails. I'm not sure if I have enough time to mess with them tonight - but for sure by this weekend.

    If I still had a Bridgeport I’d have done that right away!

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    50/50... "It could be cut deeper, but it sounds like its almost right at our tolerance" was roughly the conversation. They gave me the go-ahead to grind down my current brackets and attempt to make them fit if the new ones don't work. I don't know if Ram changed the brackets, or if the...

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    Spoke with Truxedo today - mine is cut/recessed to 1/2" and they're suggesting it should be 5/8" - they are sending new rails.

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    I didnt even get to the point of putting that washer on before I knew I had a problem. I stopped at the step where you put the first clamp on the rail because I realized the front wasn't going to fit. Still waiting for Truxedo... I'm going to call them again today.

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    Called Truxedo again today checking for an update. Unfortunately, they’re still waiting to hear back from engineering.

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    I just called Right On - while their bracket is only 2" wide (and stock is wider - I forget what I measured, but I think it was closer to 2 & 1/4) - they stated it sits flush with the bed cap, which wouldnt give me the room I need. Photos sent to Truxedo, awaiting for them to forward to their...

    Winter gas blend is back

    RAM is very conservative on the fuel gauges. My F150, I would routinely fill the tank to the number of gallons the tank was advertised as holding, or within a gallon of it. With my last 2 Ram trucks, I've had the 32gal tank, and typically only fill it to 26-28 gallons max, and thats even...

    RAM Dis-incentives

    Don't forget to go on Ram.com and when it has the "enter your e-mail for a special offer" - complete that. It's an extra $1,000 incentive.

    Do the Right On braces sit lower than the stock braces? It says they're only 2" which is less than the stock brace.

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    I tried that, It gained some space, but I’m still a solid 1/8” short of where I need to be.

    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    I just wanted to share, I purchased the Truxedo Sentry CT tonneau cover for my 2024 Ram with the MFT. Truxedo basically trims the bed rails where the braces are. Unfortunately, mine was trimmed a solid 1/8" short, and the rail doesnt fit without hitting the brace. It won't seal down to the...

    Revolver X2/X4 or Truxedo Sentry/CT?

    Plus the cover still has a lock at the tailgate, and in the middle of the cover, correct?

    Revolver X2/X4 or Truxedo Sentry/CT?

    Hello! I just purchased a 2024 with the MFT. My last truck had a Bak Revolver on it. Loved the tonneau cover, especially that it locks for our travels (if they're going to steal from the truck, gotta make them earn it!). I've seen some comments about the CT in rain - does it become rain...
