Bed covers and fifth wheel clearance

[bigorange]

Buying a fifth wheel soon and wondering what bed covers folks use that provide enough hitch clearance when folded. Preferably a folding hard cover. 2011 Ram 2500 standard bed.

Good to know since I’ll probably have similar results here in Tucson.

I've had the Bakflip G2 on my last 3 trucks and loved it. I will be adding it to my current truck once the rollup cover that was on it when I got it wears out.

I Just installed a Pace Edwards Bedlocker electric roll-top cover on my 2016 F350. I have a B&W Companion installed on the B&W turnover ball and the cover slides right over it with maybe a 1/2 inch clearance.

I must be the only forum member here that owns a Paragon truck bed cover. It works great for my needs pulling my fiver. It is made of aluminum, easily folds below the bed so I can see my hitch head, it is easy to quickly remove, and it locks.

BakFlip G2 on my '14 Ram short box with an Andersen rail mount. No problems at all.

I had an Extang Encore hard cover and it worked fine til I changed my pinbox to a Mor Ryde. It protrudes further in front of the king pin and wouldnt work with the hard cover. I went with a roll up.....

Bakflip works with my 16’ Chevy 3500 and BW hitch

Have used a Fold A Cover since 2004 that works just fine. There are other brands that people use and like. Pick one you tjink will work best.
