I just got a 2019 Silverado trail boss.  It came with a sports bar and a hard bed cover. The issue is I cant open the bed cover because the sports bar is in the way. Since it angles in, the 1st flap of the bed cover hits it and wont open.  The guy at Chevy said that even a soft cover wont work because those tracks stick further out on the side and it would be pinned under the sports bar mount. I'm not really looking to spend 2 grand on a retractable one. Any suggestions?

You still won't be able to open all the sections, but what about a hard folding tonneau that mounts with rails inside the edge of the bed?  I'm thinking something the UnderCover Ultra Flex that I have.  The mounting rails are inside the bed rail and only the weather seal sits on top of the bed rail.  

 

I"m no expert, but I'd guess you need to choose between retractable tonneau with the sports bar, any tonneau you want but no sports bar or some limitation that the sports bar imposes on the tonneau.

I just installed an Access original roll-up on my AT4.  It installs on the inside of the bed rails and rolls up like 6-8" tall .

Unless I'm missing something, I don't see why that wouldn't work on yours and they are less than $500.

Thank you.  What I have now is a hard folding tonneau cover. But as you said I cant open the cover all the way.  Only the first flap will open.  It looks like I have to get rid of the the sports bar even though I really like the way it looks.

Chevy dealer said that for the 2019 they don't make the rollup covers that go inside the bed.  it will sit under where the sports bar is screwed into the bed.

Your dealer is mistaken as various aftermarket companies have rollup tonneau covers for the 2019+ GM trucks.

Check out the websites for Access, Truxedo, etc to find one that would work with your application.

 

I have a Truxedo Edge for my 2020 TB.

My Access Cover fits inside perfectly.  Now if the Sports Bar mounts to the inside of the bed in any way, it might interfere with the way the cover mounts.  Without a picture of the mounting hardware it's hard to know.  I have seen some posts from Colorado and Canyon owners that have installed a soft roll up cover with the sports bar.

Here's a pic of mine installed with the carbon pro bed and it's inside the bed rails.

Thank you. And this should fit a 2019 Silverado Trail Boss?  Can I have the part number please?

Thank you.  I called Truxedo and explained what I needed and they were able to recommend something for me.  So I ordered it and we'll see if that softcover works.

The soft rollup tonneau from GM Accessories will work. It's about $500.

I was looking at the Chevy soft roll-up cover the other day. How do you like it? 

 

On the Chevy Accessories website, it looks lower profile (like a Truxedo LoPro) than it does on your video.

I don't like it, which is why I didn't get it. I have the Rough Country hard trifold. I wanted something more secure and water resistant than a soft rollup tonneau. That's also not my video. It's one I came across a few months back while researching tonneau covers that'll work with the sport bar. Seeing this thread reminded me of the video.

    • Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions? 
    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?. 
    • He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it. 
    • I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
