Thanks, have fun with the install.

Thanks man, happy you had a smooth install and hope you're happy with your purchase and the way your truck now looks! Happy new year

Your welcome

Thanks

That's cool man have fun, enjoy the new tonneau when you get it

First I want to thank you Rick for noticing that flaw in the design of the headache rack and thanks again for contacting diamondback and letting them know about tha flaw. I really taught this was only for my set of racks but this might be a flaw for everyone that purchase either low or full size rack. Happy you watch my video and you was able to see that part of the video, so that you wouldn't make the same mistake. I should've done what you did, contact them and let them be aware of the issue but since I solve the issue I was just happy to have my rack. so I appreciate your thought process on making them aware and maybe less mistake for others. Please keep me informed on what their approach will be or their response. Thanks Dareo

Hey EZ, so i just heard from Diamondback and their solution was to refund my acc $50.00 or send me a new one without the holes and i get to keep the one i have, so i just asked them to send me a new one, hopefully other fellas will watch your video and call them to address this flaw before purchasing, thank you again

@@rickg8587 oh wow, so they will send you a new low profile cab, gusset or hd tonneau cab panel? because once you make a hole it's now in the panel itself? Either way you still got them to send you something I bought mines from Autoanything i can do the same call up diamondback and make my complaint been maybe a year and a half now though.

@@ezcare5075 i never did drill any holes on my tonneau cover panel "thanks to your video" since i bought the low profile cab guard straight from Diamondback i was able to deal with them directly and they are sending the new one without any pre drilled holes so i will be drilling the holes where they need to be ,in your case because you've already drilled through your tonneau cover, it may be a different scenario but i would call them anyway

@@rickg8587 ok, i understand now you told them ahead of time so they basically sent it to you with no pre-drill holes. Thanks for clarifying that. Yeah in my case they would need to give me new everything hd rack and tonneau cover.

Thanks. Smooth top have a really nice look, good luck!

Japanese truck made in Mexico or the USA.

Its a Dodge. Mexico or USA?

Thanks man, it's been awesome I carry oversize items on the tonneau I just tie them up next to the cab guard

Ez Care do you see any issues when you open the front panel? Any resistance from opening now that the rack is on there?

@@Soccer_in_the_210 no issues you just have to remember that it's now a little bit heavier than before but the gas spring work just fine still, because they were made with thoughts of the HD rack so they can hold the weight

Hello EZ Care, I have a question on opening the back panel and removing the gas springs to lay the back panel flush to fit stuff. Are you still able to do that with the rack installed or does it block the back panel from laying flat?

The rack is good I have carried some stuff on my tonneau tied up to the headache rack and it was awesome. The visibility definitely change especially for reversing but that's with any mesh rack you just have to get used to it if you want that look. Overall love it, having had the opportunity to test the entire weight limit yet!

Lol I guess so cant remember doing that

Do you have the diamond back tonneau cover already? If you do I would say some where in the future you will need that HD rack!

@@ezcare5075 No, I don't have anything yet. Just bought a new Sierra and need to cover it up. I know you're right on the head ache rack, as soon as you start pilling stuff on the cover you need it. Nice job on the videos, KZfaq has become my go to source for most everything. Keep em coming.

PS When you get a chance, you might mention they have a 10% military discount at Diamondback.

@@drlgmud1 yeah you cant wrong with KZfaq it's a win win for everyone

@@drlgmud1 yes diamondback gives 10% military discount. I purchase mines from Autoanything they had all different types of discount so I purchase them separately and depends on where you reside no tax at time of purchase plus the free shipping

Yes you will end up with two extra holes pre-driill holes was useless for me. It will only make sense for them to drill it for you if they're sell you the tonneau cover and HD cab together so that they can drill the holes for you at the same time. What happen is that the two pre drill holes that was on the HD cab guard, once you line them up and drill through the tonneau it was too close to the support bar and no room for washers and nut, I expected them to be in the right place coming from factory otherwise I would have measure to make sure. Just dont let them pre drill you can do it yourself just measure and check twice super easy instead of have additional holes $25 too much plus it might be wrong position

Ez Care, awesome! Thanks for the advice. Another question that I had was: “ what did u use to cover the other holes?” Any issues with water going in? Thanks

@@saul5799 I use a small screw or bolt with a larger head than the hole itself and before I put the screw in I fill the hole with silicone and place the screw inside. I used the best silicone the only one I buy so its solid no water issues, for good measure add some under the tonneau cover where the hole is.

Don't remember how heavy but I had help installing them in place

I dont know what the letters are for but from the looks of it the letter A is pretty much where I needed the hole to be at in the first place. It might be a explanation for those letters but I dont recall

I've been looking at getting one and read the instructions the letters and the X's are where the drill holes should go. I believe C is for this rack and the A is probably for the headache rack.

I will have to measure when I get home to my truck but if I had to guess I would say less around 2 inches

You can carry up to 1600 pounds on top of this tonneau.

@@ezcare5075 I meant the headache rack, I'm a contractor and need to carry lumber quiet a bit

@@jonathangranger4069 dont know the weight for the headache rack you probably have to reach our ro diamondback
