After screwing with the clamps for hours, I finally got something that kinda worked... but I wasn't happy about it. So I checked with the vendor (TonneauCoversWorld.com), and they referred the problem to the manufacturer (UnderCover), and a problem has been identified and they're shipping an updated bracket kit. I have to say I'm really pleased with the customer service folks and expect the problem to be solved!
I spent two hours trying to get three clamps on one rail. In the end, it was a total fail. I reached out to a long time friend who literally can fix or build anything. I’m hoping he can validate my troubles and doesn’t demand I forfeit my man card.
I have a Line-x on mine and just ran it through one of the holes in the bed. Not sure where to run those on the plastic liner.
Thanks for the response. On the factory drop on there are rubber caps that can be removed to get to the tie downs. Thinking about running them down right in to the bed. Didn’t know if there was a better option
I could not for the life of me get the rail to stay at a 90 degree angle. It kept tilting downward towards the truck bed. It was absolutely maddening. I have a call into the manufacture to see if there is a simple installation solution.
Mind posting some pics of these brackets when they come in? I might have got these with mine, but I want to be sure before I call Undercover. I think this might be the trick because it wasn't to much of a hassle for me to keep the rails at 90 degrees. It was getting the clamps to tighten onto the bed rail that was my issue.
Will do!
