Can the TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover be Easily Removed After Being Rolled Up

Question

Question:

I had an extang express on my old truck and it had similar latch mechanism. Question is if when rolled up and secured, can the truxport be pulled off the rails and stored off the truck? I have not been able to find pictures of the header behind the cab to see if it also has quick release latches. Thanks

The TruXedo TruXport tonneau cover # TX246601 does not have the same latching mechanism at the front of the truck bed as it does at the rear. The fabric is integrated into the front header and you would not be able to easily remove it. I have linked a video review of this cover for you.

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
