Thoughts on the Gator SRX Soft Roll Up cover?

[goober71]

Anyone installed this one? It's priced at $239 currently.
Is the quality pretty good? Looks like a lifetime hardware and 10 year cover material warranty.

Yep, it's been on almost 6 months, easy to install stays nice and tight. I highly recommend. Attached is a pic and I'm embarrassed how dirty my truck is...

I have it, very well worth the cost. It fits well, and easy to roll up out of your way.
Note that it does not clamp to the rail as shown in the pictures. You'll have to pull out some screvits that hold the bed rail and insert bolts and nuts to hold it on. IMO, that's better than just clamps.

Hey Jason, I am about to purchase this one I think. I like the low profile look. How weatherproof is it? Also, could you send a pic of how you attached it to the rails?

Thanks!

Do you like the cover? How's it holding up?

There are 3 plastic rivets on each side that hold the bed rail cap. You remove those and use the include bolt and nut to clamp the cover and the cap to the bed rails.
It seems pretty good at water repelling and keeps things dry enough, but as other say, water seeps in through the stake pocket caps. Sealing those with RTV or silicone helps, but no tonneau cover is 100% waterproof.

The tops arent the issue with these trucks water issues in the beds...

Yeah, that’s what I hear. Probably going to purchase a set of skate pocket covers and silicone.

I had one for the almost 29,000 miles on a 2024 Ranger and it was a good roll cover. I left it on the 2024 when I traded it for the 2025 but shouldn't have.

I actually ended up going with a folding hard cover.

There should already be covers on it, unless you removed them.

Yes, they are. But you can buy after market ones that overlap the opening.
