Great video. I have a 2023 F-150 and the Yakima site says the 60" won't fit my application and the 68" is the smallest I can get? Just wanted to verify you stated the sizing correctly. thanks.
Thanks for the video. Do you know if this sliding cover works with a 2020 Honda Ridgeline? Do you have a link for the cover to make sure it is compatible for both our truck and the Yakima system?
Now I was thinking of doing the same thing but I have a long bed which I wanted to keep my weather guard tool box and ad a retract cover right up to the tool box. Is the bed going to have leaks where the cover butts up against your tool box? For me it wouldn't be a problem because I have a Deck drawer system in the truck bed already. Thanks
I’ve had my racks for a while and I actually use them. In some places the paint is coming off. Can you paint right over that or is there something to do minor corrections?
At 6:10 during the installation your t-bolts were inserting in a long flat backing plate that slid into the t-track. Did those 4 backing plates come with the kit? The Yakama website does not show those plates.
Do you know if that American Work Cover keeps water out as well as the Diamondback HD cover? I love that with this one you can open it for even more room beneath whatever goes on top of the rack, something you cannot do with the Diamondback HD.
Can those sidebars on each side be easily and quickly removed and later added back, without causing damage if done often over time? If so, I imagine it would be great b/c I could leave them off most of the time so I can still open the Diamondback HD cover on either end, but put the sidebar back when I specifically need it. Also, do you have any experience or knowledge how much the average mpg of you vehicle might decrease if you mounted and drove with a pop up hardcover tent like say the Roofness Sparrow on top? I ask b/c it would clearly lay above the height of the cab roof. Thanks.
The plates the bolts go in on the towers look new. I don't think the older rail system had the metal plates the bolts slide in with, which used to cause bent rails.
I have a 6.5 bed f150 how you much does the toolbox reduce the space I'm thinking about that one or the jr. size but the toolbox is not deep is only like 4"
@@PatriotDIY I was talking about under the canister and toolbox area it’s 20 inches but I’m looking for the space between the bed floor and the bottom of the tool box
