RE: tonno cover
Is your bed liner an over rail or under rail bed liner? I have an under rail bed liner with an Extang tonno and there were no modifications needed. It gained me about 1~2 mpg on the highway after I installed it.

do yourself a favor and look into the tri-fold tonneaus from lund and extang..i have had a ton of them and will never go back to a standard tonneau since i got my tri-fold from lund....if the bedliner is over the rail then cut the rails off....

RE: tonno cover

RE: tonno cover
I highly recommend a sportmaster tonneau cover. In my family alone we have 5 of the slant side sportmasters and love them to death. They are easily the use, the snaps are metal and have set screws in them so they don't move at all when the cover is off and you don't have to screw around with aligning each snap up when you put the cover back on. I've looked at the extang's and the snaps don't impress me at all. Just my opinion though.

If you have an under the rail bedliner, removal is not necessary. If it does go over the bed at the front of the truck just cut that part off and screw the bedliner to the front of the bed. If you have a spray on bed that happens to go over the rails you should not have an issue either because it is bonded to the truck. The tonneau covers have self ahesive tape on the bottom of the rails the compress for a tight fit.
