Bed cover with RamBar??

IA_TRX · Sep 22, 2020

Any idea if there are any bed covers that will fit with the RamBar? I assume not. My last few trucks have had the Revolver X2 but I don't think there's anyway that could work.

Pretty sure that for the raptor ADD make one that worked with the retrax bed cover

On my current truck I have a BakFlip, Bak Box and Bed Rug. They are the best I’ve come across and I’m guessing we will have something from Bak Flip within the year 2021. If not, it’s aluminum and we can just modify the first segment with some holes and gaskets.

Does anyone know if the ram bar mounts to the bed or bed frame?

Just found out today that go rhino has a sports bar like the ram bar that will work with most tonneau covers.

Check out go rhino‘s sports bar 2.0

Here is an up close image from the outside, sure would love to see the image from the other side...

According to my dealership, the ram bar mounts to the top of the bed rails.

They also said that the ram bar is not designed to work with any tonneau cover.

Wish I had some better pictures to share, hope this helps.

Good luck!

other than to install lights on it, what else is the RamBar designed for? I'm getting one on mine for looks but I am not familiar at all with their purpose!

Mainly for cosmetic purposes, but other than lights they also are used for hauling large items in back of truck without hitting back of the cab (kayaks, lumber, etc.)

I think it looks amazing and wish I could add it to my truck, but can't as I'll have a tonneau cover on the truck (either Retrax Pro XR, or Pace Edwards Ultragroove metal).

The guys at TFL Truck were able to modify a bed cover to work with their ram bar on their "rebel rouser" project truck. Its been a while since I watched it, but I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find that episode.

I think this might be the video you're talking about:

Has anyone that has gotten their truck with the rambar got a bed cover?

I’ll let you know next week when the dealer tries to install mine. Access soft cover. They believe it can be done.

I have the Go Rhino Sport Bar 2.0. It looks good but terrible quality. The bar started flaking within 2 years, the inserts to install it to the bed needed to get re tapped to install it. Do not go with the power actuator for the lights, as mine has stopped working now as well.
A quick video of when it did work.

The bar is garbage quality and a waste of money.

My truck just got built yesterday and should have it in about three weeks. Once I have my truck I’m going to attempt installing the retrax Pro XR on my truck with the Rambar.

Will post pictures and videos of installation and fitment so everyone can see how easy or difficult it is.
