Is The Extang Trifecta ALX Soft Tonneu Bed Cover Folding - Vinyl Easy To Remove

Question

Question:

We have a 5th wheel. Hitch and pull a trailer. How easy is it to completely remove this cover? I don’t want to install any side rails, I just want to use the tonneau cover when we aren’t hitched up to keep stuff dry.

Since you do not need to install any rails for the Extang Trifecta ALX Soft Tonneau Bed Cover - Folding - Vinyl, part # EX42TR, installation and removal is really simple. This tonneau cover is a traditional tri-fold design that rests on top of the bed rails. When it is time to remove this tonneau cover all you have to do is the following: fold the tonneau cover, slide the clamps toward the center of the truck bed, and undo the torque knobs at the bulkhead of the truck bed. It weighs just 35 lbs, so it is not particularly heavy.

I have included a video review of the Extang Trifecta Signature Soft Tonneau cover below since it has the same setup, below.

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…

Answer 6

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.…

Hi Glen, It will depend on what the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) is of your trailer to determine which B&W 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter will work best for you. Fifth wheels and gooseneck trailers go off of pin weight instead of tongue…

Hey Jerry, thanks for reaching out. The short answer is yes, probably but it really depends on your exact setup. When you slide the Companion back, you gain cab clearance but lose space at the tailgate, and with a MorRyde pin box being a bit bulkier,…
