Tonneau Cover with Rambar Installation Guide

[taskhaa]

Hey yall! I know many people didn't install Rambar because it's not compatible with tonneau cover. Here is how I make it compatible with only minor modification on the tonneau cover side rail.

2021 Ram Rebel
Gator Soft-Roll
Rambar (Parts# 85515959) Parts website said it doesn't fit 2021 Ram, which is misleading.

There are two bolts on each side of the Rambar, so we have to leave spaces for the bolts to fit the side rails.

Use your knife to cut the rubs off. It's very simple. I didn't drill any hole on the metal because it's not wide enough.

It fits but there are noticeable gaps. I highly recommend yall to buy foam tapes if you don't allow any leaks to happens.

Just curious, if the Rambar protrudes above the roof, is it felt when driving on the highway? is there any noise at speed or deterioration in aerodynamics?

It looks good. I got a hard cover. Mx4. I would be able to install but not flip all the way up to cab

Nossir. They are pretty tight (rambar+cover) and won't make noise at all.

Yessir. Same problem as well. I can't roll all the way up. I think the only thing works in this case will be a retractable cover. It's quite expensive

hi, not that i can tell, being all round surfaces i assume they let the air flow, on the contrary of a storage box or a tent for example.
