Question:

Good morning, I am investigating getting a new Tonneua cover for my 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 shortbed, crewcab. I am also looking at the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Ladder Rack Item # TH43002XT-782. Is that Ladder Rack compatible with the Leer Soft Tonneau Cover # LE76VR . Thanks,

Expert Reply:

The Leer Soft Tonneau Cover # LE76VR leaves room on the bedrails for stake pocket access so that the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43002XT-782 can fit, but we find that combinations like this tend to wear on the edge of the soft cover as you open and close it. This can prematurely wear the cover out and make it harder to seal the edges.

The BAK Revolver X4s Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK62VR has a bit more of a lip on the inside of the bedrails and has been shown to be more compatible with the Thule TracRac SR, so you might want to consider this as an alternative if you don't want to worry about the edges of the cover.
