Default Rambox Tonneau Cover, Heres an option for you

I love the Truxedo Lo Pro Tonneau Cover as do many others on these forums.

I do not have a Rambox but have seen people asking about options.

I went to their website to get info so I could make a flier to sell my Truxedo Lo Pro that came off my 07 and saw this picture.

Thought people might like to see it.

Not sure how the ******* Butterfly would work with RamBox...
Would you have to open Butterfly in order to access RamBox Lid ?? Doesn't seem a design that would work too well...

Anyone seem (or purchased) the MOPAR Tonneau ??
They have one designed specifically for the RamBox - installs into the top channel of the Load Management rails.
http://www.mopar-accessories.com/en-...=3175&pc=33746

Without a picture on the www.MOPAR.com site, the Installation Manual download shows that it would not conflict with the RamBox Lids (stays further inboard).

Does anyone have a MOPAR Tonneau - and can provide feedback of their mounting / latching system and their 3-fold setup ??

I have the Torza top made by advantage truck accessories for a regular crew bed. http://advantagetruckaccessories.com/ I downloaded the Mopar installation manual and it is identical, so I'm guessing they make the Mopar ones. It is a nice top. I had one on my 04 Dakota and my 07 Ram. Cheapest place online is http://4wheelonline.com/DodgeTorzato...rs.27198.73482 for $307.95 shipped. That's where I got my last one from.

Retrax also makes one for the Ram, its a hard roll up cover that offers lockable security, a little pricy, and you lose a little space at the front of the bed but a still a great option.

i could be wrong but i have to disagree with the two covers being the same.
In the description of the mopar cover, it says its a hard foam ... the torza is just a faux leather type plastic fabric with no hard foam to it ..

its called 'HARD FOAM' ..

This Hard Folding Tonneau Cover is lightweight and made with a durable aluminum frame. The structural foam panels are rust and corrosion resistant and features a patented four-panel design. Opening and stacking the hinged cover from the rear is a simple two-step process that takes just seconds. The front panel also opens for easy access to cargo stored in the front of the bed. Sturdy, flush-mount locks (front and rear) secures both tailgate and cover.

Here is what i think mopar is selling. Notice the key hole locks both from and rear in the mopar link .. and the picture in the mopar link shows a set of keys already inside the rear key hole ...

Fold-A-Cover tonneau bed covers are manufactured and distributed by A Division of Steffens Enterprises, Inc

http://www.truckaddons.com/Catalog/s...foldacover.htm

https://www.foldacover.com/FitYourTr...7/Default.aspx

notice on the foldacover website .. there is no option for the rambox .. ill email them or call them tomorrow to see when it will be in production ... the key holes and the 4 hard folding panels give it away ..

what do you guys think ? do i seem to be right ?

Well, I will have to disagree with you on a couple points and here's why. I was referring to the instructions for Mopar #82211602 http://www.mopar-accessories.com/en-....ashx?id=14520 Step 6 shows the top as a tri-fold not a quad-fold like foldacover. If you look at the locking levers in steps 8 and 9 these are the new style patented levers used by advantage. If you look at the levers on the install instructions by foldacover they use a different type. You are right that the Torza top is the soft vinyl. The hard version made by them is called Hard Hat. I'm not sure which Mopar top you were referring to with the foam. I looked at the soft folding Mopar top 82211272 http://www.mopar-accessories.com/en-....ashx?id=14362 and I don't think it is made by advantage. The levers are a different style.
