Please keep us updated on the cover install...I've thought about purchasing the Mopar brand as well. Not sure if I want the rollup or hard fold...Thanks for sharing your insight. My order went in Dec. 18, 2018 so it would be too late to change anyway. But at least I feel better.
Just had the local dealer install the Mopar trifold (hard cover) last Friday. I think it looks great. Quality seems fine but will update if anything seems off.
Easy to use, locks with tailgate, low profile and kids love crawling around on it. I washed the truck over the weekend and only a few drops made it into the bed, overall seemed like it would keep everything dry back there.
Installed mine today (Mopar hard tri-fold). Got a good price (for NY) of 735$ plus tax, which is 18% off, by ordering from a local dealer’s website and picking it up from their parts department. I took my time but it went on pretty easy. A few minor adjustments were needed before tightening everything down.
Only hang up was two of the pre drilled holes for the tie down clips were way too tight to push the threaded pin in by hand as the directions indicated. I had to put a screwdriver through it a couple times to get the millings out and then used a rubber mallet and cardboard to hammer it in without damaging anything.
Expecting snow and ice tomorrow morning so should be a good test for fitment and leaks. I’ll update soon.
Most tri-folds are rated in the 300-400 lb range, but we're talking about evenly distributed weight.... which means snow. If you were to jump up on one of these covers and stand on it then it's surely to do some damage.what is the weight limit on the hardcover drive hold? I have one on my Avalanche and I love it because I can put my 45 gallon freshwater bladder on to refill my travel trailers fresh water while on the beach. 45 gallons of water weighs about 350 lb so wondering if these will hold that kind of weight also. Any info would be great.
Also do the tri folds fit the bed that has Ram boxes

This happened while parked... not thrilled, but I guess 100% rainproof with a trifold is hard to expect. After my trip I’ll try to make some adjustments. I can see some daylight from underneath by the cab end passenger corner. A lot got in by the tailgate too. Time to experiment!
Had same issue. Contact bakflip for warranty. They’ll ask for pictures. The water over the wheel wells is due to the screw piercing the drain rail incorrectly. I got new rails sent for free. Also - they suggested mounting the bulk head foam strip onto the cover, since it doesn’t stick well to your bed spray, just like mine. These are all things they explained to me.
