Weird they started on the site it won't work with MFT same as Bak mx4. Did you do any trimming to make it fit???
No trimming, fits MFT just fine. I called them when I received it because I was worried as well due to the way it was written on the packaging. Was told I’d be the “guinea pig” & to let them know how it went. Fit fine but didn’t appreciate being the beta tester. Especially since the website said it would work.

Thanks for be posting that. I ordered mine and fit perfectly no triming.

Looking for options for a 2020 Laramie, 5’7” bed with ramboxes and no multi-function tailgate. I see plenty of other threads on tonneau covers, but didn’t see any specific to this application.

I definitely want a folding or roll-up cover, and need to retain function of the ram boxes. I also have the bed rail utility kit, and I’m hopeful to find a cover that allows me to continue using the adjustable tie downs. Also, if I could have my cake and eat it too, I’d love to keep the self-opening tailgate functional.

I’m open to options for either soft or hard cover. Very curious to see pics of any options you have or have seen!
Get the undercover flex. It says it won't work with MFT but that is not true. It worked for me no triming or modify required to make it fit

This is the fix, came with my undercover ultra flex. You get a strip of n the package & cut it to fit either side of the tailgate.
I used something similar I got off of eBay.

Finally got fed up with the way my Retrax was interfering with the Ramboxes. Basically, the gasket is in the way and if you lift the lids too far open the lid would bind up between Retrax and rambox gaskets, and cause an audible POP when trying to close them again.

I modified the top Retrax gaskets to remove the portion causing major interference, and now I can open the Rambox lids fully without binding up. I’ll assume I lost some water tightness, but shouldn’t be too bad and happy to have the issue resolved. From the top / outside, you’d never be able to tell the gasket has been modified.

I have a Truxedo Sentry CT on my 5'7" Rambox truck and I like it. It looks like a soft cover but is constructed of aluminum slats perpendicular to the length of the truck. So it's pretty secure and you can just roll it up and out of the way when you need that. Seals pretty well too.
Any pictures of it installed?
