Compatibility of Pace Edwards 311-SWFA05A28 Switchblade Tonneau Cover with 5th Wheel Hitch
Updated 02/05/2021 | Published 02/03/2021
Question:
Will a 5th wheel hitch clear the retractable cover, and is there enough room to tow a 5th wheel trailer with the retraction portion still on the bed? Fitting for a Dodge Ram 3500 Dully.

According to my contact in the Tech Support department at Pace Edwards, the # 311-SWFA05A28 Switchblade retractable tonneau cover would clear the 5th wheel hitch with 1-2 inches to spare, so no worries there. The lid that tops the canister where the cover actually retracts sits far enough forward and is tight enough to the top of the bed sides that there will be plenty of clearance, with no worry of the pin box or any other part of the 5th wheel striking the canister.
I've linked to a product demonstration video where my buddy Randy will run through the features of the Pace Edwards Switchblade tonneau cover.
