Hey guys,

 

I found a crazy deal on a new roll-n-lock A-SERIES. Only issue is i have a 5.8 bed and this one is for a 6.5 bed.

 

I spoke with customer service and they said i can cut the tack and it will fit.

 

Any one have one of these covers?

Yea i'm trying to get the model #. Roll-n-lock says they can verify if it fits based on that. I'll just need to cut the tracks. Which they have tons of info on how to do it.

I had one on my old 08 5 3/4 foot bed. Best cover on the market hands down if you still use your truck regularly

Those are awesome covers, but I just couldn't justify spending $1100-$1200 (sounds like you're getting a great deal though). I think the next best option is what I got, the Bak Industries Aluminum Roll-up cover. When rolled up you can still see out of the back window, and when it's covering your bed it can hold 500 pounds on it and can't be cut by a thief. It's also $500 cheaper than a Roll N Lock, currently $828 on Amazon. Thought I'd let you know in case your deal falls through.

My brother now owns my 94' truck, and that roll n lock cover is still perfect condition!
Only thing I don't like about it by today's standard is you still have to have the tailgate bar/latch that you have to mount.
I bought a US Truck Covers, similar version to roll n lock, for my 17'
It does not have the tailgate bar that you have to add, and with the new trucks they tailgates come standard with a lockable tailgate.( So I don't need that bar to" trip" on)
I'm just hoping that their cover holds up as well as my rollin n lock has!

On my 08 I bought it used for $500; for my 16 I have the type you mentioned. Roll up and backed by the security metal. It's a nice cover, just a bit different than roll n lock

I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a retractable cover. Just want to make sure I chose the right one. I keep circling back to the Bak Vortrak cover, just seems like the best bang for the buck. And I love the ultra low profile it provides. How good has yours been at keeping water out of the bed. That is my biggest hang up,I need the bed and it’s conten to stay completely dry when it is closed.

If you want the bed completely dry be sure to add a tail gate seal. That is where the majority of water and dust get into the bed.

It's very hard to get something to stay completely dry especially something that is retractable

      Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles.

      Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.

      LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL

      OBD not ready?

      By davester · Posted

      Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
