Hello, looking to get a bed extender and want one that fits under the factory soft cover. I think the MOPAR one will. How hard is it to remove the extender though if/ when I want to?
 
Yep, 5 seconds. I stores up against the front bed wall and takes up 2-3 inches. I leave mine about 2 feet from the back. It keeps things like by golf clubs from sliding up!
 
The brackets have slots in them at about a 20 degree angle from you so you just flip it out (after you open up your cover) and pull it off. The hardest part is opening your cover enough to flip it back to the tailgate.
 
I think there is some confusion on the part I am talking about...I am referring to the Bed Extender vs the Bed Divider...

This thing is what I am referring to. 😂

As mentioned in post #4 you rotate it up and lift out, quick and easy. Plenty of YouTube videos showing assembley and use bed extenders.
 
The RAM OEM Divider works as both an extender and divider. And the divider is more squared off vs the rounded edge.

I could be wrong, but I think the particular bed extender you are talking about is only for the Rambox beds. I like that idea a lot and have looked. I cannot find it for the regular beds. Unfortunately.

Thank you, it was answered. Pretty easy for sure! I did not think of searching youtube for assembly instructions. Good idea. The post you mentioned was just to clarify for others what I was talking about.
 
deeve - yep, you are correct. Rambox beds.
 
I had a love/hate relationship with mine. I liked it when I had a bunch of stuff that would scurry around, like groceries or similar, because it kept everything pinned between it and the tailgate. But when I had bigger stuff to carry I was always yanking it out and storing it up against the rear window. I never got rid of it, so I guess it had more utility than aggravation, but I thought about ditching it a few times. I really liked it when I was doing things like carrying doors to job sites - with the tailgate down and the extender flipped out, the doors fit perfectly behind them and I didn't have to strap them down.
 
I've got a question, it looks as if you have the spray in bed liner. Were you able to put in the brackets to swivel the extender over the spray in liner, or did you have to clean out a spot for the brackets to fit more tightly to the bed rail? Thanks for your assistance.

I just mounted mine over the spray in and it works fine.20220611_190540.jpg
