Finally installed my Bakflip Bed cover...

Well I've had a Bakflip Bed Cover in my garage for months (Thanks again Grim!) To mount it according to specs with the utilitrac bed, you have to remover the tracs and flip them over...well after seeing howmany bolts got ruined when they sprayed my Rhyno liner in my bed, I decided to NOT tackle the trac flip.

Did a lil' search and found how to do it. You have to trim about 1/4" off the bottom of the Bedcover track. It also calls for pop riviting the tracks to the bed rails. Well I don't have a rivit gun. And I dont have the original clamps that comes with the cover. So until I can make it to the hardware store for clamps or a rivet gun, I'm using good ole trusty vise grips. (Hightech Redneck WOOT!..lol)

This thing BARELY fits with the tailgate shut! lol....Going to play with it a little more this weekend. Also I had to remove my Firestick CB antenna and mount, since it was mounted on the inside of the bed rail/cap. Right now I'm using my back up magnet mount antenna. I'm going to fab up a bracket mount that allows me to use the forward bolt that holds the bedcover to the rail.

Anyway...here's the pics... Hopefully this will improve my MPG...cuz with 35" Toyo M/T's, I need all the help I can get...lol

I dont know..lol I was taking my time..lol I had issues with it being a tad too long. When I would shut the tailgate it would push the panels together and create a hump in the rubber seal...so I had to play with it a bit (trimming material off the ends of the rail, & repositioning.)
