Installing the RealTruck BAK X4ts (and my plans for using the T-slots)

- This is the best tonneau cover I have ever installed on a truck of mine! This cover checks the boxes for everything the perfect tonneau cover should have.
Here's the cover I installed in my video:

Been looking for a real person using this and not just marketing guys. Thanks
Its an awesome cover! any questions let me know.
@@WaterFowler41Do you think that Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars will fit, I saw that they are easy to remove.
Great video! I have the X4ts cover on order for my 2024 Canyon AT4. I already have the Elevate rack here ready for it and am going to have my kayak on one side and a locking cargo box on the other side. Should be a great setup.
Good choice!
Would like to see the kayak rack for sure ! Can't wait to see that cause I was thinking about doing this too! Well, for my REBEL of course ; - )
Soon hopefully!
Nice set up.. I have a 21 f150, and before that a 2017 RAM 1500, both with the x4s and Adarac rails .. the t-slot wasn't available at the time, and Adarac was one of the only compatible options. Good to see BAK finally caught up with demand!
I had the adarac rail on my last truck, great option but not that the Revovler has the t-slots...GAME CHANGER!
Sweet setup, thinking about going the same route for my Raptor.
Go for it!
cool very similar to mine, I think it is one of my favorite styles of bed cover
I’ve always been a trifold guy but I like being able to see out the back window when the beds open.
@@WaterFowler41 yeah I have a tri fold on my super duty and a cheap roll up on my rebel the revolver is the best imo I’ve had roll n lock too the cassette takes up too much space for me
What height would your bed rack need to be so that you can still roll up the cover in its entirety?
10” or more
I've had this on my Ram 2500 for almost a year and get a lot of compliments on the sleek look.
Can I get more info on the chase lights and how they are mounted? Or can you send me the link to the video? Thank you I subscribed to the channel over this video
Awesome! The chase lights are SSC2 pods from Diode Dynamics. I will mount them using the t-slots that are built into the X4ts tonneau cover
Curious what rack you went with. I have this on my 22 Tundra and was hoping my Yakima Overhaul would work but it does not. Only adjustable rack I found so far is Elevate.
I’m going to run the elevate rack.
Can you put the product link please
Link is in the description
How much weight can you put on it
Assuming you are asking how much weight you can put on the rails since this isn't exactly a tonneau cover built for hauling loads like a Diamond back is, they don't list the specs for this cover but I would assume they are close if not equal to the specs of the Elevate t-slot rails which is 500 lbs when driving on road and 750 lbs when parked (rtt with people in it).
Thanks for a real review from someone who actually put it on there truck!
You bet!
Why isn't anyone being honest with the quality of this cover? The title should be, Superglue Not Included. If you had an older BAKFlip from 10-yrs ago, you will be very disappointed with the amount of plastic. The locking mechanism used to be housed in aluminum - now it's thin, brittle plastic. The end caps are as well - they fall off way too easily. Upon receipt, all plastic parts were cracked and/or had fallen off. Even worse, of the four screw holes for the locking mechanism, only two were used per side - so the entire locking mechanism falls out when you try to use the cable. This would be fine if sold for $100 - that's about all it's worth. This isn't a cover for the working truck - it's there to get into place, be left alone and look good (assuming the endcaps don't fall off as you drive).
Sounds like you got a dud or are beating the heck out of the cover beyond its intended purpose. I’ve been extremely happy with the cover as have most across the forums.
Regarding the 4 holes for 2 bolts per side, that’s not uncommon as many of these rails are used across different applications, cutting one type of bracket is a lot more efficient than cutting multiples when you look from a manufacturing lens. Also, 4 bolts aren’t going to provide any noticeable benefit over the two the cover requires.
Cover is brand new, unused, out of the box. And yes, partial assembly is a huge problem. The cable housing lifts off of the rail when trying to use the cable. They drilled four holes for mounting, but only used two. As for the old one with aluminum parts - yes I did beat on it for 10-years and, yes, it held up perfectly. Should have pulled it off before I sold the old truck!
