When you’re hauling gear, you need a cover that moves as smoothly as you do. The Full-Metal JackRabbit uses heavy-gauge aluminum panels that retract into a compact canister at the front of the bed. A quick turn of the handle activates the spring tension system, pulling the cover in automatically. The built-in pull strap lets you close it again without climbing into the bed. It locks every 12 inches along the rails, so you can secure partial loads or keep tall cargo uncovered while protecting what’s closer to the cab.
Rain, dust, and snow don’t stand a chance against this setup. The interlocking panels use silicone hinges and foam seals to keep out water and debris, while drain tubes at the bottom of the canister route any moisture through factory holes in the bed floor. That means your cargo stays dry even through downpours or car washes. When latched with your tailgate locked, the aluminum construction adds solid theft resistance compared to soft covers that can be easily cut open.
Some covers sit high above the rails, but this one mounts inside for a nearly flush fit. The low-profile design keeps your truck’s lines clean and reduces wind drag when closed, which can even help with gas mileage. The matte black finish looks sharp without drawing extra attention, and because the canister sits low and angled, it doesn’t block rear window visibility when retracted.
Getting it installed doesn’t mean breaking out a drill. The Full-Metal JackRabbit clamps directly to your bed rails using two clamps per side, plus built-in kickstands that help level everything out as you tighten them down. Once bolted up, the canister protects the retracted cover from road grime and weather, giving you a smooth, quiet operation every time you open or close it.

It looks great and was easy to install.
Second Pace Edwards I’ve owned. This one is way nicer than the first. Love the quality and the way it locks.
Perfect fit and it makes the 72 look fantastic.
Works excellent. Easy to both open and close and I like that it locks and is a solid surface. I have a short bed with a fifth wheel hitch in it and there is no interference at all. Exactly what O was looking for.
Love the tonneau install went well I did resort to u ti e video which is actually very helpful looks great on the truck. I did have the same issue the installer on the video I watched did one side slips right on and the other took a minute to get lined op damn if I could figure out why.
Very nice heavy-duty cover! Installation was pretty simple and straight forward. Connecting the rails takes some finesse and patience.
1 year later and it still works like day one. Just keep the channel lubed.
This looks really good on my truck (F350 long-bed). I like it a lot better than my last bed cover (one of those tri-fold ones that just sits on top). It wasn’t that bad to install. It did help to have another person for a few minutes for parts of the install. Unfortunately, within a month it started to pop open when driving down the road and I found multiple small screws started falling out from the back ends of the rail. Some I was able to find in the bed and re-install… others I have to figure out how to replace them. If it had not started to do this, it would easily be 5 stars.
The cover looks and functions well. There were some areas on the interior where the powder coating didn't fully cover the metal. Also, the drain tubes are incredibly difficult to install into the cannister from the under side because of the thickness of the foam seal. This was mentioned in the Etrailer install video, but they should have suggested installing these first while the cannister was outside of the truck bed and could be more easily accessed.
Very nice looking. Not fully waterproof. Drains need work. Tough installation.
Item arrived as stated when ordered, item received is exactly what I ordered. The Tonneau Cover was easy to install, allows to the bed of the truck without opening the tailgate. I don't have to go from side of the truck to other and unlatch two latches for access to the truck bed, saving time and effort. Good looking product (Tonneau Cover-Aluminum-Matte Black)
Very easy installation and works really well. I'm glad I purchased this item.
First it leaks , so there is a water inside the bed after each rain and it is aggravated. Second it’s not a good idea to put lock on top of the topper. I would prefer have no lock at all. And once in a while, the toper keeps open while driving.
I just finished installing it with my wife. It’s not a tough install, once you get past attaching the rails to the trough. Neither the installation manual, nor the online videos shows that clearly enough. Many awful words were spoken, mostly by me. But, once we finally made it past that step, it wasn’t bad at all. The cover seems rugged enough and the end hits the tailgate just right for a good seal. It looks great, like it’s always been there. Everything functions as it should and it rolls right over my 5th wheel hitch with about 3/4” to spare. Time will tell how it does going forward.
This was not cheap I really happy with it. Easy install Looks amazing Low profile
It would be perfect if the side rails were 1 inch wider and covered up the "stake" holes in the side of the truck box.
Tonneau covers come in a variety of designs and prices. For me, security and durability were top priorities, so I went with the Full-Metal Jackrabbit. This is a high-quality design that I expect will last as long as my truck. Installation is a bit difficult, but the etrailer video was very helpful, even though it features a GM pickup (I have a RAM with Ramboxes). Like the video, I found putting the canister in the truck near its final position (I used 2 inverted 5 gallon buckets) worked best instead of installing the rails first and then lifting the assembly into the bed (which requires 2 people -- I was working alone). I supported the rails with a 2x4 across the gunwales near the tailgate while attaching them.
Getting the rails aligned and inserted into the canister receptacles was the most difficult part of the assembly. It took a bit of angling and twisting, but things finally clicked into place, and the support screws could be installed. Then the buckets were removed and the canister and rails dropped into place.
The rail attachment hardware fit perfectly, and the resulting rail separation was right on the money at 45-3/16" all the way along, requiring no further shimming or tweaking.
The end result is a great looking tonneau cover that's well worth the money and installation time (took me about 6 hours). One modification I made was to the pull strap, which I didn't like laying loose or having to be stowed. I replaced the strap with a metal 1/4" cable clamp and metal 1-1/2" ring. When I'm in the bed, the ring is easy to grab with a finger. When I need to pull the cover closed from behind the tailgate, I attach a 6 ft. dog leash, and remove it afterwards.
This tonneau cover is removable, but doing so seasonally or more frequently would be laborious. And holes need to be drilled through the truck bed for drain tubes that prevent water accumulation in the canister. But these tubes can be removed temporarily if they're in the way of cargo.
The canister does occupy space at the front of the bed, but there's still about 10" of space beneath it. My RAM has a bed divider fence, and it still fits everywhere under the cover up to where the canister is mounted.
I'm very pleased with this cover, and would purchase it again.
The installation instructions are terrible. The video by etrailer could be better with close up shot of getting the rails into canister track. Tip: After starting cover into rail, angle outside lip of rail slot into groove to get into track. Product design could be better to ease installation. Solid product, just lack luster instructions for end user.
We love it!
