I put the rail under the forward mounts notched it for the rear mount. Just need to add a bead of silicone to seal it up

Looks something like the "sail" on my old Avalanche or the "wings" on my '69 Chevelle, but a lot meaner. Like the photos show.....mean

Would it be possible to post some photos of how you interfaced it with your roll up tonneau? I have a similar one made by Access but it seems like the rear mount of the bar would interfere with the rail of the tonneau.

Used a Lund tonneau. The side plates of the rear mount are 1/8" thick.......just installed the side rails over them and used a piece of double sided foam to take up the slack in the balance of the rail against the bed cap. Cover support rails still fit in the channels, but if they did not I'd just shave 1/4" off each.

I just bought a sierra all terrain x and was able to install a revolver X2 tonneau cover. I had to modify the rails by notching to fit around the rear support but it came out looking really clean. I'll post some pictures later.

SF GMC thanks for posting. I have an All Terrain X and wanted the Revolver tonneau. This is exactly what I was planning to do for a modification but was waiting to see if they would do it themselves.

I so want one of these for my Sierra but of course my wife thinks it's ugly.

 

Does GM make one for the Sierra?

Heh, I suspect this is a common issue. My wife doesn't like the idea either. (Probably because I would also want a need different bed cover than my elite G4 (which I love by the way).

Just installed a Lund Genesis rollup cover.....the sports bar does not interfere with the mount........only change wasa installation of and extra 3/8" foam insulation to take up the difference where the bracket overlaps the side rail cap.

which lund model number did you end up going with ? even at LUND, they don't seem to know what sport bars are.

Hey, just wondering which genesis cover you used on this? Was it the Genesis Snap Tonneau, The Elite Snap Tonneau, Regular Roll-up, Elite Roll-up, etc. ? Any help would be great, thanks.

 

 

Edit: Never mind, just saw the last post on here, sorry.

I am back and forth on the sports bar myself. I think the chase racks style look pretty sweet as well. I saw one on the highway must have been custom) where it was a headache rack that had bars that ran from the top to the back of the tailgate. Thought it looked sweet, even if I never do it.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
