Getting the extruded aluminum that I need, for a reasonable price, has been a challenge. Had an order that got delayed and delayed. Found a different source a few provinces away. Hope to get this material soon so I can get this project going.The beginning of a bed slide. This will be removable. Have some other neat touches to add to this one. Extruded aluminum is on order. Should be here in a couple weeks.
Thanks to you and @TRD-2-Tremor for the advice and guidance.Billie Bars are killer. I've been surprised with how versatile they actually are. Now I have lots of plans.
I have a Bak Revolver X4S. The BillieBar brackets would move the tonneau cover rails up and in. I’m fine with moving them up a bit. Moving both sides in is going to take out a lot of clearance between the roll and the rails. It also means less weather striping to deal with. Don’t have to contend with both sets of brackets possibly interfering with each other. I reserve the right to change my mind…Why do you want to bolt them through the frame rails?
I purchased the tie downs and bolts separately.Your extra bed tie downs, where’d you get those?
They have all the hardware and just screw into the bed holes?
