DiamondBack Covers | Modifications

I really like this idea/design, how's it working out for you ?

 

Anyone know if the cvt mt st. helens hard shell rtt would fit on the diamondback on short bed with the front runner set up?

 

Is it longer or wider than the bed? That’s the real limiting factor. If not, no reason it won’t fit.

 

its 84in long and the bed is 60.5 in long

 

It’ll still work, it will just hang over the bed. When you asked your question, what did you mean by fit?

 

was trying to see if anyone has tried it and if the overhang makes using the tent precarious

 

Got it. I have a friend with a short bed that put his XL Smittybilt on some bed bars and it hung over about 14” and it looked kinda ridiculous. Hope that helps lol. He decided to keep it on top of his first gen instead, mounted on a topper.

 

Hey fello Taco lovers, has anyone been able to find the front runner rack for diamond hd? My skycamp 2 is so lonely in the garage, waiting for me to unbox it. COVID has effected the supply chain. Anyone have a way to preorder one? Their site lists as sold out. Thanks all.

You can contact frunt runner and have them sell you the parts and you can just do it yourself. It is really easy you just gotta take your time and measure

 

Thank you Ryan.

I contacted frontrunner about a month ago and was told all inventory goes directly to diamond, next delivery sometime in sept 2020. I am looking for alternatives to frontrunner - I am about to write a script to scan for availability!

cheers

Diamondback got more 2 load bar sets in stock this week from what I can tell. I snagged a set and they still have 1 more available as I post this.

 

I snagged one as well.

 

Thanks, I noticed in my daily scan and ordered set of 3. Delivery is guaranteed by 10/31, hopefully it will arrive sooner!

 

Used the diamondback to pick up a new workbench. The guys at home depot were very confused when I asked them to drop the pallet on the cover itself.

 

If you didn’t use it, park in the Pro Parking spot next time. If they look doubtful by your request, you can tell them to trust you on it and point out that the truck is parked in the Pro Parking.

... and nice new work bench.

 

I'll have to try that next time

 

May be a long shot, but I'll ask in here too. Does anyone have a Dometic CFX3 55IM or similar size fridge under their diamond back cover. My cover is on the way but I'm trying to go ahead and get a new fridge coming too. I'd like to make sure it fits before dropping that much money. Any pictures with a fridge included or measurements from the top of the ridges on the bed floor to the crossbeams of the cover would be greatly appreciated!

 

Check out papadave's Dometic setup. Not sure if the dimensions are the same as what you're looking for. Hope this link helps point you in the right direction.

That’s quite the read. Had to go through 10-15 pages to gather all of the details, but I think I may have found the info I was looking for. I really appreciate it!

 

Ya, no problem. I think there's a post here in this thread where he gave details on it. Might be worth a search. I just don't remember where he said what he did. I know it involved bending at least one of the locking rods, but the locking mechanism still works.
