RSI EVO Sport SmartCap Install on 2020 Ford Ranger 

Got some plans for it! Stay tuned to MLO's Instagram and RU-vid feeds.

It has been super watertight for me. Remember, you still have any OEM bed/ tailgate gaps, so if it’s wet and you are parked on a hill you might see a drizzle of water from those spots in the bottom gutter area. I use dry bags for my full time bed gear like vehicle recovery kit, overnight bags, etc.

@@MainLineOverland many thanks! I have a rubber mat on the floor to and try to park car with nose higher than tail and it worked for me till now...also used some silicone around toneau and it works...tailgate can be tricky as whole bed has in declination towrds the cabin, but parking car with nose higher in mind does the trick...

why drilling of the bed?

YOU CAN EMAIL THEM INTIL HELL FREEZES OVER THEY DO NOT GIVE A SHIT.???

There is a great video about this subject. It uses baffles to keep water out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KijSedxopsQ.html

GOOD QUESYION

Would be very tricky to mount wood ones. The SmartCap bins are very nice and worth the $$.

At the time the 3rd brake light wiring kits were not included by the distributor. You actually need to contact the folks at SmartCap to get that adapter.

Absolutely. The RSI has 330lb dynamic load rating.

@@MainLineOverland 700lb.?

We believe so, but they have a big backlog of current model orders they are working through, so it will take some time before they offer additional fitments likely.

Hey Bryan, the Smartcap comes with the weather stripping included.

Yes, I have transported lumber this way.

From the bed rails, the F-250/350 Smartcap is 600mm tall or about 23.6 inches.

It’s a part of the truck now. I have load bars on the roof tracks and have carried a RTT and Kayaks, so that’s a nice option I didn’t have prior to the cap.

Yes, the Ranger does have a bit more rake, but it also has a higher rated payload. I already had the ARB Bumper and winch on at the time of this video, so my rake is somewhat skewed by that front weight. The cap did bring the rear down an inch or two from stock height. I now have an OME 2.5” lift kit and with this kit you can tune the rake with several front and rear spring rate options. About 9 months on I have used the cap in every way imaginable, and am very happy with it. I have since advised Ranger customers who are installing themselves to find a dense foam spacer and use a light duty double sided tape to deal with the cabside bed wall. One piece of dense foam cut to both traverse the gap and seal the side rails will do the trick. 👍

@@MainLineOverland okay thank you. I’m pretty sure I’ll be getting a Smartcap- Sport with the half side bins on each side.

You level it out and the first time you load it, it will be sagging I would think. I'm keeping it stock for that reason.

Full-size trucks have a look-through window built in. The Ranger cap does not have this feature, so no OEM bed light, unfortunately.

We're based on the East Coast with shops in Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and North Carolina.

180-200lbs, depending on the length and install hardware.
