rollback with utilitrak

MikeZ · 09-19-2004, 05:32 AM

Hi all,
I did some searches but didnt find any definite answers. Is there a rollback type cover that will work with the utilitrak bed divider and bed extender? These are the 2 options I want to keep and am hoping there is a rollback that will still work with them.
Thanks in advance,
Mike

Did some calling around today and spoke with Retrax for 20 minutes or so. The guy answered all my questions and advised that the retrax will work with UT and bed divider and extender. I ordered one and will post some pics when it comes in.

I've owned two Pace Edwards roll covers and had great luck with them both, but when I checked to see if they had one to work with the utility track the answer was no. Bought a Leer 700 but sure do miss not having the roll top feature..

Did they tell you if the retrax cover uses the UT rails to mount to?
How much was it?

Looks like the Retrax or Kcover, will be waiting on your follow up!

Yes, long conversation with them and they were very helpful. No, retrax does not use the ut rails, it has its own set of rails just above ut rails. That is how they got the divider and extender to still work. Other thing I like was according to them it sits flush with bed sides and not above it, I like that look.
retail was 889 but he knocked off a 100.00 so 789.00.

Thanks for the info, just one more question. Does this unit have a lock with a key, because the on the website it looks like you can just slide it open?

Yes, according to them, it locks and they also said you have option to leave it unlocked (if you dont have anything in bed to protect) so that you can just release lever to open instead of unlocking it. I guess some of the rollbaks, you have to use key every time you open it (always locked). This wasnt the selling point for me but neat anyway.

I have a Pace-Edwards Jackrabbit retractable cover and it leaks severely. Do you have any recommendations on how to fix this. Pace-Edwards said their covers aren't designed to be water proof and all the water is normal.

Here's my thread earlier on the subject.

Thanks for helping me out, if this doesn't get corrected, it won't be a pretty site between me, the dealer, and Pace-Edwards.

Thanks!

Have a good one.
