Hey James, BAKFlip tonneau covers are going to interfere with opening the lid of the UWS Truck Bed Chest - Wedge Series - Offset Lid - Notched Box # UWS01048. Instead you can use a toolbox like the UWS Truck Bed Chest # UWS08297 or the # UWS08298 for black. These are also low enough that your tonneau cover and it's rail system wouldn't interfere with from underneath as well.

It fit in my 2025 Ram 2500, but I had to notch the rails so I could open the lid. Worked out great.
