Not sure about the bedliner, I am sure someone here will chime in on that part of your question, but...

 

 

DO NOT buy the GM accessories soft tonneau cover. It is made by Access for GM, but it is NOT the same quality. Yet, it IS the same price. When I ordered my truck, I asked the dealer to include an Access brand tonneau cover and he tried to tell me the GM one was EXACTLY the same since it was made by Access. I said "fine, but if it's not, you are replacing it with an Access brand before I take delivery". He agreed. Well, when I picked up my truck, it had an Access cover on it. He told me he looked at the GM one and told the tech to put it back in the box and put the Access one on. He knew I would not have been satisfied with it. He didn't even bother to ask me if it was OK. They were the exact same price too (about $450 iirc).

Hi heres a photo of my rear BedLiner, I need to know if theres a tornneau that fit? without drilling it. Both the Access and the Extang look good!

I like the way that Extang Revolution looks.

 

I cannot call to EXTANG to ask, beacuse i'm not Englsih Spoken. Remember I live in Venezuela!

 

Thank you for all help you can give me. I would like to order my Tornneau soon!

Since your bedliner appears to be an "over the rails" model, the Access nor the Truxedo (the two brands I'm familiar with) would NOT fit your truck.

I'm not aware of a Tonneau cover that will work with an over the rail liner.

 

While not completely true, it would definitely take some modifications to get our tonneau cover to work with an over the rail bed liner. I've attached a pic of our clamp that holds the tonneau mounting rail onto your truck bed.

 

To get this to fit, you would have to cut holes in your bed liner, as well as securing the nut to the clamp that the bolt screws into, since you won't be able to get a wrench in there to hold it.

 

Not impossible with an aluminum welder and a dremmel tool, but not a modification for the faint of heart.

Extang will not fit unless you modify (cut) your bedliner, as they have clamps which hold it to box.

      The not as clean as one would assume theme with the new engine oil, that reminds me of comments over the years with mechanics not always being so on board with filling an oil filter, not from the center anyway due to that typically being the clean side of the filter, danger of some contaminant falling into the filter if not careful but the realization now that the oil may not be as pure as one had assumed it would surely be. Yes it would be possible to fill from the small holes but that means messing with something to prop open the anti drain back valve if the filter is so equipped and not damage that valve in the process. Me, I have hardly ever prefilled an engine oil filter however I have prefilled diesel fuel filters with a filter on a fuel bulk tank and for anyone that has messed with diesel engines with filters and units that have a limited or no way of priming them, putting on a dry filter is a bad day to say the least with those crappy systems. But anyway back to not so clean engine oil, indeed perhaps its not so bad after all that I have not made a practice of prefilling oil filters.    As Grumpy Bear commented on keeping things clean, that I really have to wonder what the typical practice is at a dealer or any other shop that changes engine oil, do they make sure to wipe or wash off the oil plug and certainly if it fell into some gunk or onto a dirty floor, or that they wiped the filter mounting flange and didn't go and use some dirty rag and end up adding dirt to the inside of the head of the filter mount. Or be careless in how they stored or handled the new filter and if they were bumping into items under the vehicle with the filter opening facing up and having dirt drop right into the filter and if so right into the threaded center that is on the clean side. The top side, did they clean away the built up gunk that may be around the filler before removing the cap or to be really careful at that point that something right close to the filler hole that was hidden under the caps flange won't fall into the engine. Or did they clean the funnel or was that just laying there covered in oil from the oil change before and dust kicked up from sweeping the floor stuck to the oil and now that will go running into the next persons engine due to just not cleaning the funnel as "they won't know anyway" attitude as that young guy is more worried about taking a break so he can go outside and smoke a joint. Just random points that came to mind when I think about what some hired personnel may do that the shop foreman has no idea of or perhaps the whole attitude of some shops may be "eh ... who cares, they will never know the difference anyway".

      On the subject of OLM, Gm's OLM tool may be more "informed" than others brands. I recall OLM's in mid-2000's Chrysler products literally counting down a set number of miles. That's all the OLM appeared to be.    I would actually expect GM to be able to explain the parameters that their OLM takes into account from a high level. No, I would not expect them to disclose their software coding or data analysis around their parameters.   So we're talking about two different topics, so to continue the subject on the other one, I'd be curious to know how much "standard particulate matter" in fresh oil is able to be filtered at first start by a fresh oil filter. How much particulate matter is enough to "matter"?   I.e. how much of a "lever" do we think this equates to (variability in particulate content, in fresh oils, between different makes/brands, some which filter less, and some that filter more).   We can say that more particles = more wear = shorter engine life as a logical statement and use that data with a little marketing to scare people into selecting a more refined/filtered oil. Using a similie, is this like deciding to forego two alcoholic drinks in a lifetime because we're worried about the potential impact on lifespan? Are there numbers which translate the ISO test results into a quantifiable increase in wear for a given engine/use case?

      I'm pretty sure it doesn't actually recalibrate the speedometer it just changes the wheel speed sensor inputs to the computer. The truck still thinks it has stock tires.
