What you need from your truck bed can change from one day to the next. The Fas-Top Sport covers everyday gear now, while its rail system lets you add a ladder rack for long cargo overhead or a soft topper for taller gear.
The Fas-Top Sport gives you the everyday coverage of a soft roll-up tonneau cover without limiting what else you can do with your truck bed. The cover sits at bed-rail height, keeping groceries, tools, luggage, and other gear covered without blocking your rear view. When you need your bed for something larger, or need access for a 5th-wheel or gooseneck hitch, roll the cover up behind your cab or remove it completely to use your whole bed. Compatible soft toppers, ladder racks, and accessories mount to the Fas-Top rails, so you can change your setup depending on what you need to haul.
A ladder, kayak, or long piece of lumber can take over the bed space you need for everything else. You can find the compatible ladder rack here: Fas-Top JayBar ladder rack (FT64MJ - sold separately). Add it to carry long cargo above your bed while the tonneau cover keeps tools, luggage, coolers, and other gear covered below. Both use the same Fas-Top rails, so you don't have to choose between covered storage in your truck bed and a rack for carrying long gear overhead.
Some loads simply don't fit underneath a tonneau cover. The Fas-Top soft topper (FT36TV - sold separately) attaches to the same rails to enclose cargo up to cab height, while the tonneau cover stays installed and rolls up behind your cab. When you want the lower-profile setup again, fold the topper down and go back to using the tonneau cover without removing the Fas-Top rails.
The model-specific Fas-Top rails are included with the tonneau cover and clamp to your truck's bed rails without drilling, welding, or power tools. Built-in utility tracks provide mounting points for compatible Fas-Top soft toppers, ladder racks, and accessories.

How's it going, Chevy owners Today we're gonna take a look at the Fas-top Tonneau Cover for our 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with a 5 3/4 bed. Now, Fas-top, just like the name implies, has a product that you can quickly install onto the truck and get going basically right out the box. So let's talk about what it's made of, see how well it fits, and I'll even show you how to install it. Fas-top uses a nice material. This is weatherproof, so it's gonna deal with the sunlight as well as wind, cold, and heat. So no matter where you find yourself, you know that your cover is gonna hold up against the elements.
And to help keep moisture out, you have a weather seal at the bulkhead and hooking loop fasteners on the side. Now, to disconnect this guy or open it up, you're gonna have latches on each side that you push down, and you're gonna be able to flip this guy over. And it rolls out pretty easily. But all of the structural parts of it are made from aluminum, so that's gonna hold up against corrosion and give you a nice longer life. Plus, it's lightweight, so it doesn't hit your payload too heavily.
The thing that I like most about this particular tonneau cover is the fact that it has this track system. Now, this is gonna allow you to bolt in different accessories like tie down loops or storage bags. I mean, it also works with the soft cover that you can add in. So the rails itself are gonna be the foundation for the entire system. Now, with the silver finish right here, it looks really good with our gray, but if you want to go black it all out, it is available in black aluminum as well.
Installation is super easy. Only thing you need is a handful of tools, and I'm about to show you how to get it done now. So out the box, only thing you're gonna really need to get set up is a tape measure, a 9/16 wrench, and a box cutter to open the package. Now, the way that everything goes in is super easy. I already did the passenger side, and now we're just gonna go ahead and align the driver's side.
You just wanna make sure that your latch is pointing towards the end, and I'll just position it. And comparing it to other tonneau covers I think that contact that it makes with the contour of the bed rail makes it super stable and sturdy. And that's how come you can build off of it with the other kits. So now I'm gonna hop in the bed and throw the clamps on. So for the clamps, these guys are pretty straightforward. You're gonna have your bolt as well as your clamp. On the inside of your track, you have multiple nuts, and those are gonna come in handy for other accessories that you may use. Now, for this application, you wanna make sure you have clearance underneath the bed rail for your clamp to fit. So right here, not so good, so we'll scoot her over a little bit, and about right here. And I'm just gonna hand tighten just so I can position everything right where I want it, and I'll come back with my wrench and fasten them down. Also included in your kit is a insulation tube that's gonna go at the bulkhead of the bed. Now, this is just a demonstration to see how well it fits. Our neighbor today is actually getting a etrailer tonneau cover, but we're gonna go ahead and just fit it out. Just keep in mind, you can just cut this with a blade, like your box cutter or some scissors. And as far as the spacing for your brackets, these guys are designed to go as close to the rear as you can get, as close to the center as you can get, and as close to the front you can get without any obstruction from the clips of your bed rail. So now you're gonna take your cover, and you're gonna install it into the bracket. Now, this guy should slide right into the black part right here so you can align it with your screw hole. And you're gonna do the same on both sides. So now we're gonna get both of our sides hand tightened, and then I'm just gonna come back with my wrench and fasten everything down. Now we're gonna unroll our tonneau cover. And it's been my experience sometimes you don't get the tension just right. And the way that it's set up, you can actually go back and make adjustments to all those nuts, I mean, all those bolts, and be able to get a good connection. Now at the very end, you're gonna wanna align this aluminum bar and snap it into place. And you can go back and fasten it down with your hook and loop connectors. Now, what really tells it with a tonneau cover is this part right here. Look at that. Good to go. Fas-top has a product that's super easy to install and ultra versatile so you can get a lot of different uses out of it. And when you're out there in the world on your adventure, I'd love to see where your truck is, let's see how it looks on your truck, because I just love having that interaction with you. Now again, this is Ed with etrailer.com, taking a look at the Fas-top Tonneau Cover on our 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Have a great day.
