I have a BedRug and a Snuglid on my 02 L.. Love them and so does the stuff that gets thrown in back there.. my bud that just bought a new Screw just ordered one too.
you will love it.. also, if you didnt know, the bottom is one piece from the cab to the top of the tailgate.. this fills in the space between the tailgate and the bed.. helps keep stuff out of the bed...

That doesn't seem like such a bad price if its a good paint job,, just my opinion though.

The bedrug is still one of my favorite upgrades.Like a huge trunk.Makes sleeping in the doghouse a hell of a lot more cozy.

I've posted that link so many times that RK Kustom should be sending me checks.

2020is, I chose the Fold-a-Cover for a couple reasons, one, its a hard locking cover. Two, its low profile and low weight (less than 40#s). Three, its about $480 or so delivered. Four, with it folded I can still carry tall cargo, like a washer/dryer.

I've been looking at those folding tonneaus for a while. Since Versacap doesn't make one for a flareside, I'm probably going to go with an Advance or a Fold-A-Cover.

2Cool: that looks good on your truck. It looks a LOT like an Advance cover. Are you sure it's a Fold-A-Cover? The similarities are amazing.

As far as I knew, Advance makes the Fold-a-Cover... if I am wrong, its due to spending way too much time looking for the best cover for my needs, and too may Google searches for retailers... the cover is manufactured by Advance, and still has the sticker on the back.

Thanks. I was just wonderin'. Looks good.

Oh - I've got a question: Advance says the flareside model is completely no-drill. However, on another site I've seen pictures of one on a SCrew where the thick outer rubber weatherstrip molding has to be screwed into the bedrail caps. What does the weatherstripping look like on yours?

Also - there are four locks on the thing. I assume those are the locks in the top at the corners. Do you have to undo two locks to raise the top?

No drilling was required, the hinge and lock brackets clamp on. I used only the tubular style weatherstripping, which comes with adhesive on it. The kit also included some thick foam style weatherstripping, but the flareside does not need it for a water tight fit. I just installed the round stuff in the first inside groove of the bed rail caps, and it lines up just right with the top closed, plus allows a flush fit.

Each corner has a lock, so yep, you have to unlock two to fold up either the front or rear. not a big deal overall, and the panels are very light, yet strong enough to stand on.

OK, will get the pix up as soon as I can. BTW, I order it from a local shop, considerably cheaper than $330 shipped directly from Wise. Email me if you want the email and phone # for them.

I like the clean look also.

Rick at rk kustoms sent me an email today saying mine is on the truck on it's way to me now. It shipped out this morning and I only ordered it late last night. That's fast!
