Tonneau Cover for 2024 Ram 3500 that Wont Block Camera

Question

Question:

I have a 2024 Ram 3500 with an 8 ft bed and a 5th wheel hitch. It has a bed view camera which I use to help connect my 5th wheel trailer. Will the BakFlip MX4 when folded up at the back of the cab window still allow the camera to view my 5th wheel hitch in the bed? In other words, will the bed view camera be blocked when the cover is folded up next to the cab window?

Hey Wes, with the BakFlip part # BAK48204 installed and folded all the way up against the back of the truck cab the camera would end up getting blocked. A much better option would be a retracting tonneau cover like the Retrax part # RT80233 which for sure won't block the camera at all.

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.…

Hey Mark, we have the RetraxPRO MX part #RT80485 that is a confirmed fit for your 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 long bed. The fit of this is not based on the OEM puck kit as that would not affect anything related to the cover. Are you wanting to cover a fifth…

I spoke with my contact at Trailair and from your serial number we were able to determine that your trailer came with a 1621 HD pin box which is a long pin box style. I was unable to obtain the exact part number for your Trailair pin box but from the…

No, they will not Mark. The Replacement Legs item #RP63FR only work with the Reese M5 hitches like the item #RP30928 for example. The only way to mount the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item #RP30047 in the puck system of a 2025 Silverado is to use…
