Question:
2012 Ford F250 8 ft box. I am interested in a Bakflip hard tonneau cover. The problem is the gas tank/tool box is flush with the top of the side bed rails. Is there a way to space the cover up an inch or so or another type of cover that would work? A hard shell cover would be hard to fill the gas tank. Thanks, Sam.

Expert Reply:
Hey Sam, since you have a tool box that is flush with your bed rails you would want a tonneau cover that sits on top of those rails so that it would fit with the tool box. For that we have the Extang Trifecta part # EX92725 which is a confirmed fit for your truck.
The BAK you mentioned would not work for this purpose.

Hey Sam, how did the Extang Trifecta work out with your F250 and tool box setup? It sounds like it should clear the rails nicely. Your feedback could help others trying to fit a cover with a similar toolbox.
