I also have a Roll-n-Lock. I installed it about 2 weeks ago, and have had no problems at all. So far, there is no rattling what so ever. They are fairly easy to install yourself, but it will help if you have someone help you. A friend and I installed mine in about an hour. I ordered mine from http://www.wesellroll-n-lockbymailorder.com/ for about $680 shipped.

Hope this helps,
Jason

Yes and no. They do have about a 9" square box that sits on the rails, and hangs down. You do still have the full length of the bottom of the bed though. If you plan on hauling a ton of stuff then you may have a problem if you can't give up the 9" of space. However, if you ever have to haul a TV or anything more than 18" tall then you will love the Roll-n-Lock over any other non-retractable tonneau.

Does the install involve any drilling or is ALL of it designed to be clamped on?

Thanks,

For the rails on the Roll-n-Lock, you do not have to drill any holes. They are completely clamp on. There is a piece on the tailgate though that you screw in for the tonnuea to lock to it. At first this piece bothered me, mainly cause I didn't know that I was going to have to have anything on the tailgate, but after some use it hasn't been a problem at all. It is a very sturdy piece so it won't get damaged very easily. As for the PE, you have to drill some holes for the rails, or you can buy an additional kit to make the rails clamp on. I don't think that there is anything for the tailgate, but the PE roll top doesn't lock to the taligate.

Thanks for the reply.

Another quick question...

KCDAK,

For the Roll-n-Lock tonneau, I have the Line-X over the bed-rails spray, will this effect the installation of the clamps, etc? I see you have the Line-X bed spray but was wondering if its over the bed-rails?

Thanks,
QuadCab
