    Hey,

    I have the toyota tonneau cover on my 09 tacoma. I am going to go and pick up a dirtbike so i need to remove it. I am wondering if anyone has done this and has any tips for the best way to remove it.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    make sure you mark where your frame is on the truck, so it goes back in the right spot. disconnect your clamps, and two guys can lift it off.

    Thanks guys, ya it came off easy. Made the mistake not to mark it and it took a while to get everything aligned when getting it back on.
