Question about bed rails and a cap?

in a few weeks my new camper top will be arriving (ARE Z series) and my question is do you remove the black bed rail covers prior to install? thanks

 

On the two Leer caps I have had the rail covers stayed installed. I think most I have seen here are the same.

 

Same with my Leer 100XR, bedrails still usable. In fact they are necessary in order to clamp the cap down on the bed of the truck

 

I do believe he means the black plastic covers that are on top of the bed sides. Where stake pockets would be if a full size domestic truck for example.

I'd say yes. There is a foam or rubber gasket that will mold/conform to that "cap".

 

Yeah, just re-read, and I think you're right. Oh well, now he knows that the tie-down rails stay too !

 

thanks
