Question:
Hello, I have the factory retrax tonneau cover on my 2021 Ford F-250 and I’d like to see if I can change out the side rails for T-slots to add the Yakima racks. I’ve seen other QandA’s and it seems possible however I haven’t seen the same application and part number listed. Appreciate your help. Thanks

Hey Josh. Which Ford factory tonneau cover do you have and what's your bed length?
It looks like the Embark cover on Ford's website is the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover item # RTT-80383. The Replacement Side Rails for Retrax XR Series Hard Tonneau Covers T-slot Style item # RTT-82383 fit with the PRO XR and the MX series if you have a 6-3/4' bed.
