Replaces the tail clamp assembly for your Extang Solid Fold, Solid Fold 2.0, or Trifecta tonneau cover. Includes 1 complete tail clamp assembly.Great service, the product was exactly what I needed to repair my broken Tonneau cover from a high wind storm that left the cover in a state where it could not close on one side anymore. I was able to fix the problem inexpensively. They have many repair parts for a variety of products. Thank You!!! I will use them again in the future and if any of my friends need repair or replacement I know who to recommend.
Bought two replacement clamps a year ago. They have worked great so far.
Great customer service, quick delivery, especially when you need parts like yesterday, good company!
Replaced the Tail Clamp that broke off of my SolidFold on my 2013 Toyota Tundra (Item#EX1035). Exact replacement. No directions so you will need to remove the foam piece on the end of the track to get to the two small phillips screws that hold the clamp in place. Then you’ll need to break off the two long pieces attached to the rolling piece, I believe they are on there for shipping only and no instructions tell you to break them off but you have to. Then, I had to use a rubber mallet and a long flat head screwdriver to rock it into position slowly without stripping the clamp by placing the grooves of the roller under the track. First on the side without the extra cutout groove in the track then very slowly into the other side of the track in a slow rock back and forth until both sides are under the grooves of the track without stripping the groves. Lastly, reinstall the plate over the track with the screws, and reattach the foam cover with sticky adhesive.
it works great. it would be great if there was instructions on how to install it.
Perfect fit for my Extang tonneau cover. Assembly and spring tension seem better the original ones that came with the cover.
Just what I needed! Simple to order on the website and actually arrived early.
Kris - 08/28/2021Looked all over for this and found it on your website! Thanks again and sorry it took so long to right a review!
This is an exact match for the bed cover of our Toyota Tacoma pickup. As soon as I found it on etrailer.com I knew I could trust them because I have made many purchases with them before.
Michael K - 03/12/2020This clamp appears to be exactly like the original. There appears to be no easy way to install the replacement as the track into which it fits is apparently sealed into the cover. I ground a wide spot in the track rails near the center and slipped the replacement in. This seemed to work just fine and did not seem to effect the operation of the clamp or the cover. If there is a fault, it would be in the original design of the cover with no practical way to replace the clamps. I would like to see installation instructions accompany the product, especially if there is a technique that wasn't apparent to me.
Jim M - 07/22/2017It was easy to install, the ones before came off when tonneau cover pop off on the interstate. So I'd replaced them. I'm in the process of repairing the cover.
Perfect replacement! Still in great condition after a year.
I bought my Tonneau Cover over 5 years ago and I love it . I use it all of the time and its still going strong . This tie down needed to be replaced and it is a gem .
Exact same as the original.
There were no installation instructions. I had ordered two as both of my latches had broken guide rails. The first one quickly broke as I was trying to figure out how to install. The plastic guide rails should be metal as the plastic is to weak to hold up to the slide force. I was able to install the second oneI had to reorder to replace the latch on the passenger side. The manufacturer is to blame for the quality but e-trailer is to blame for the lack of instructions....and I found none on you tube nor elsewhere on the net. And to add insult to injury ry, my extang has leaked since day one, ......so much for dry storage....
Brian B - 07/10/2017The clamps were installed in less than 5 minutes and work great. The purchase process was easy and I found them the parts right away on your site
My truck sits outside...uncovered....365 a year... So here in western PA we'll get very hot summers and very cold winters. I purchased a few extra items for my bed cover so to be covered for all year. My replacement Tail Clamps, Tie Down buckles and Tailgate seal are all extras for the time of need. They all came in excellent condition with prompt shipping. It's not that I don't think the originals will last...they still look great and work fine...but... Here near Pittsburgh sometimes it's spring, summer, fall and winter all in one day... so we've got to be prepared. These parts are well worth the small cost of being prepared.
This was exactly the part I required for my tonneau cover. The problem I encountered was installing it. There seems to be no way of inserting it into the tract without forcing it. I ended up breaking it unfortunately. However, if there is a way of installing it which I overlooked, this is the correct part.
Victoria B - 02/27/2020I bought these for my 2011 Tacoma for my factory Toyota tri-fold bed cover and they fit and worked perfect! I just had to dremel a small slot in the center of the channel to fit these in and the job was finished in no time.
Henry - 05/30/2019Simple ordering online. Shipped the next day. No instructions for installation but just a quick question to etrailor and got the info needed to replace the tail clamps.
Doug H - 03/06/2018Perfect. Removed necessary screws and bar... easy install.
It worked perfectly. Received in time.
I ordered one replacement rear "spring latch" for my "Solid Fold" truck bed cover. I purchased their cover back in 2009 and it has continued to serve me WELL. Was unsure how to remove the old latch, which I accidentally broke off a portion, to replace it with a new one. I called them and with their information was able to make the switch. The newer models have a screw that allows you to open a area in which to remove and replace the spring latch. The older models, like the one I have, requires widening the aluminum track to remove and replace the latch.
I was so happy to find a replacement clamp for my 1st gen tonneau cover. One of the clamps became damaged when a strong blast of wind ripped the end of the trifold cover completely off the bed of my truck. The replacement fits and works perfectly. Thanks for the tip on how to remove the old clamp and replace it with the new one! Awesome product and fast shipping, it arrived a couple of days early. Thanks so much! I'll shop here again as I'm very happy with this transaction!!!
