[@Scoobyfreak86]

Just did a full 14 month update on this cover. Check it out to see how it’s holding up! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqrNmpiEpp6crdUsi=9Y6-xMFtzQF2OpGq

[@user-rk7cw2bf9u]

I have this cover and have for 4 months I love it so far even works with my right line truck bed tent kinda acts like a table in tent.

[@NWcpl]

Great install video. very straight forward. Thanks!

[@natgasf7236]

I just had mine delivered,putting it on tomorrow. I’m pretty sure that second rubber washer underneath should have been up against the underside of cover.

[@yhohenkirk]

This is so awesome and so great and very helpful

[@scottswin4236]

Thanks, my son has one on his Ram. I borrowed his truck one day, and I could not figure out how to open up the Bakflip. Thanks to your video. I was able to open the thing up by pulling the strings at the back of it.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Glad to have helped!

[@Oldschool503]

Looks good! I think i might get one for my Tacoma. Cheers

[@offylibertylover4868]

Agreed, great accessory for many reasons. I was torn between the panels (MX4/F1) and the Revolver X4S. Decided on the X4S for my needs, but they make great products and I am very pleased with the purchase. My only issues was fitting the rails with a low enough torque so they didn't warp, even at 10ft/lbs they didn't sit level. I think just under the specification is where I ended up.

[@josephpuchel6497]

Hey I wouldn’t even think that this would become a issue. Glad you brought it up. I’m wondering how close the BakFlip hard cover compared to the Gator hard cover?

[@elperro5]

looks like a nice luxury item

[@g.donuts3551]

I’ve had the Revolver version for a year now. Mostly happy with it.

[@stuwie31]

Can I ask your pros and cons? I’m thinking about getting one.

[@g.donuts3551]

@@stuwie31 The back corner plastic pieces have come off, flew off going down the highway. Could be a better design. They gave me replacements under warranty though. Very back edge starting to delaminate, so it’s definitely not going to last five years, so at some point I’ll be retesting their warranty.

[@paramountplumbing]

I think the extra two rubber washers might go on topside.

[@f5fstop]

It does!

[@christophersmith5116]

If they do it does not say it in the Directions. I just installed mine 3 Days ago, but it does make sense though. Love mine! 0 Water Leaks.

[@poiryra]

I hate to break it to you but for security, forget it. I have another brand identical to this. I was recently broken into with my soft tonneau cover sliced open and thousands of dollars of gear stolen so I purchased a locking one just like this one and found how to get into it in less than 5 seconds. They are easier to get into than slicing a soft top. The cables are easily jimmied to get into. I made a blocking angle piece to not allow getting into and will be doing more to secure it even more. Just a heads up.

[@stevesultemeier4475]

I'd appreciate details on how you made something to prevent getting to the cable and make it more secure. TIA

[@poiryra]

@@stevesultemeier4475 I cut a 1 1/2" piece of Aluminum angle to fit around all the brackets and screwed it in underneath blocking ant access to the cables. Although not a perfect way to secure but not able to get to the cables to open. Also going to put locking latches in ahead of the spring latches.

[@g.moreno579]

Great video just bought mine 👍🏽

[@garylofgren]

So you had the best step by step install instructions for the truck bed cover on your truck , better than others so thanks … like to see any other MODS you have for truck if you did them? I have GMC

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Glad to help! Check out my full walk through mod video kzbin.info/www/bejne/sISQi4mfgpJ_ldUsi=_4ey1EDQf5s3mMS4

[@EverydayATV]

Hoping that you have better luck with your MX4 than I’ve had with my two F1’s. I recently did a review on everything wrong with the F1. Mainly hoping you don’t incur the water retention issue in the panels after time. Mine used to be a one-handed operation in opening and closing the panels, not no more lol. Also if you ever get sick of having the drain tubes in the way of your cargo, I shorted mine and used the holes in the side of the bed seen at 15:49 of your video. Hope that helps 👍

[@Scoobyfreak86]

So far been very pleased with the mx4. Bed and interior of the cover stay dry as a bone during washes and inclement weather. Thanks for the tip on the drain tubes!

[@sundayadickson]

What year was your F1? It seems they've improved on it, as I recently watched an 8-year review of the F1, though it was mostly stored in the garage.

[@EverydayATV]

@@sundayadickson so the original was from 2015 and they sent me the replacement in 2017. I know the 2017 was a newer version because with that one, I was able to close the tailgate with the cover in the down position. I couldn’t do that with the original. Also the changed the design of the prop rods. The reason I know is that BAK sis not send me new side rails with the replacement covers and the rods in the rails do not work with the updated cover.

[@MellowMediaDesign]

You might get a little water intrusion if you dont use those other rubber washers on top of the cover. Top bolt > rubber washer > cover > rubber washer > bracket > metal washer > lock washer > star nut

[@Scoobyfreak86]

The bed stays perfectly dry. Been through some crazy storms and not a drop of water gets through.

[@sundayadickson]

Is there a way of avoiding the water retention issue in the panels after time? This seems to be the main issue with this BakFlip especially the F1.

[@timtroia3785]

the cover looks nice and i had no water issues. but the only reason i will not be putting one on my 24 truck the panels don't hold up. meaning it dents really easy. from setting things on it or even a little hail. it gets little dimples all over it. the panels need to have heavier aluminum.

[@graphguy]

They are nice, but... and it is a big one. Until they can handle more weight on top Then the second major issue is folded up they 100% block the rear window. Both of these are 'no go's' on this style.

[@CraftMMORPGs]

At the gate do you have any gap of lime 1/4 of an inch or so ? Or the the lip of the cover sits on the of the gate a 1/4 of an inch or so?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

It sits on top of the gate to keep a water tight seal.

[@stevesultemeier4475]

I'm thinking about buying one for my Ford Maverick. Did you consider using some blue Loctite to ensure the bolts don't loosen up?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

This has been on my truck for a year now and not a single bolt has loosen or come undone. I don’t think loctite is needed for this application.

[@ssc6605]

Now that you have had this a bit, any complaints? Been looking to get one for my f150

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Not a single complaint. No leaks at all, no abnormal wear or issues. It’s been fantastic.

[@jaysav8958]

What are the specs on those wheels and tires? I love the look of it

[@Scoobyfreak86]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpy4eaCvn8-cjM0si=RE_-LY1dvhrE33y2

[@snakeman48]

This brand and model was on my short list, but I didn't like how it folded up and blocked the view out the back window. So I went with Peragon. The panels and can easily be fully removed to allow access to the whole bed and the back window and view is not blocked..

[@josephpuchel6497]

Hey How do you like the Peragon ? I’m not liking that the side rails might warp due to being too snug possibly causing leak.

[@tonenj3892]

Can you do 80 down the turnpike with that flipped up? Serious question

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Yep. Been faster with it up and had no issues.

[@Frdtsl]

The dealership wants to charge 500 to intall this cover.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Follow my video and it’ll save you $500!

[@ajcruises5777]

Look at Bison out of Canada $679 Canadian for a product better than the BAK and less than half the price. I just replaced a BAK that died after 2.5 years.

[@gerrygalvan7313]

Good video! How is it holding up?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Looks as good today as it did in this video. I love it!

[@gerrygalvan7313]

The rubber seals are still good? I saw another video complaining about them.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Yes all good. No issues at all.

[@thezohan4901]

After useing it for 3 years it became extremly heavy. I think because it sucked water into.

[@sundayadickson]

Hello, may I have the exact wheel name, model number of your wheels? Thanks.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpy4eaCvn8-cjM0

[@fb510m]

Over the years you will realize its not built for longevity

[@mikeking3110]

9 years on my Tundra and never an issue

[@dlbailey1234]

Agreed mines started falling apart after a few years.

[@rcr-zt4of]

What do you recommend as an alternative?

[@tyler3378]

Mines a few years old no issues.

[@douglasdever6134]

Might need a tonneau but not necessarily this model. Not everyone will need the entire bed and if so, most other covers come off with the removal of four knobs and that take a minute or two.

[@tedjones2294]

Don't like how it totally blocks your view out the back.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

You can easily pop the whole cover off if you want to have rear window view.

[@Djpouncil2]

retrax is better. Nice vid tho

[@jakekeyes8638]

This tonneau leaks water terribly. Worst tonneau I've ever owned.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

I’ve had this one for 2 months now and it’s been through lots of rain and car washes and the bed stays perfectly dry. Most times people have issues with it leaking is because of improper install.

[@user-rk7cw2bf9u]

I have this cover on my truck and have for 4 months so far and zero issues keeps my bed dry and no leaks

[@icemanrrc]

Jakekeys8638 you didn’t install it correctly. These are the best quality non-leaking covers you can get.

[@johnfrazier7034]

This one sucks...Leaks real bad from day 1 and cannot get it replaced, customer service sucks. Wasted $1200+

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Almost a year with mine, never leaked once. Everything stays dry for me. I would suggest making sure all the seals are properly seated and positioned correctly. 9/10 when people have leaking issues, it’s because it’s not installed properly.

[@txwelder8107]

The panels dent way too easy

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Update video coming out today on my 14 month review.
