2014+ Truck Bed / Tonneau Covers

[Kelloggs67]

found a leak in the undercover flex tonneau cover and fix it but come on you should not need to do stuff like this when you spend hundreds of dollars on this so 

 

#1 was leaking from the drain tube you easily think it would have been glued or at least a gasket not just plastic on aluminum 

#2

used some fast acting bond stuff 

#3 gasket sealer may not look to pretty but it worked and was a free all stuff was in the workshop at home 

#4 few hours after all things are dry reinstall and found out no more leaks

Has anyone installed the one sold by Weathertech?  I'm looking at the Alloycover one, the tri-fold.

I have one.  Its the same thing as the Bak mx4 but with a lifetime warranty.  Its a nice cover but it does leak some on the sides.

The MX4 (and Truck Gear) have built-in water channels on the sides, so are you saying you're getting water in the water channels?

Which one do you have, the lxp or the stealth model? Any pictures you mind sharing

I picked up the Lomax tri fold. I have had it for about 8 months and so far I'm impressed.  Keeps the bed dry, and very low profile.  

 

No lock, but have to open tailgate to open cover. Helps with low profile.  Aluminum looks nice, not sure what hail will do, that is coming this year I'm sure. 

 

Only problem is its alittle pricey.

I've had my Bakflip MX4 now for a few months.  I'm not a huge fan of the method for holding the cover open in the flipped up position.  The rods and connecting pieces are too flimsy.  They wouldn't hold mine open at highway speeds, which I feel that it should.  Combined with water getting into the bed, I would look elsewhere.  They look good, but don't function as well.

I don't own a Lomax, but I've seen a dealer display.  Likes:  The finish does look really nice.  Semi-dislikes:  The cover just looks a little odd because it sits above the rails with no side seals.  The aluminum on the bottom side of the panels have no finish, they are bare aluminum.  I wonder if the the little rubber attachments and rubber band thing that are used when securing the open panels will last a while or break prematurely.  None of these things are deal breakers for me, but......

I would let bak know, I have a G2 and it holds up fine at highway speeds and no leaks, they’ll probably send you a new one.

No i get some water in the bed.  Im not sure where its coming from.  I definitely get some by the tailgate.  If it rains i always have water on the sides of the bed.

I had a lock and roll on a 94 Dodge - it came with it. Worked good until one lip got bent a wee bit. Then it was a pain to slid in and out, and that also wore out the seal. Even with that the whole thing weathered rather fast. For as much as they cost I feel the rest of it should have held up better.

 

In 13 I bought a used Access and I have put it on 3 pickups. Just yesterday I called in for a couple replacement buckles, they asked for the SN and sent them out free of charge. They now have a customer for life.
