BakFlip interfere with Utilitrac?

[nlittle]

So apparently the hard cover I have been waiting for from Nissan (for a month /part of the sale) is on hold. Indefinitely.
I am cancelling the order and getting a new hard cover somwhere else.
I like the idea of the BakFlip and want to know if I can still fully use my Utilitrac with it.
Please say yes! (unless that is a lie)

HI, I'm sure this question has been asked but could not find the answer searching.......

bump? I did search to try to find this first.

bump? Couldn't find by searching.

I have the bakflip and love it. Cutomer service is excellent. There is minor interference with the sliding things back and forth, because of the way the cleats sit, but it is only minor. You can get past it, just not as smooth. I posted my review on it sometime back. You will be able to find it.

Hi. I've got the bakflip on a shortbed Crew cab and have no interference with the utilitrak. The only problem I had was there are 3 clamps for each rail to hold down the bakflip. I couldn't install the middle clamps. There are only 2 on each rail now. No problems though.

Installing the third clamp in the middle is easy. You need to take the bolt completely out, stick the back part of the clamp in (go in at an angle and then straighten it out when it is behind the track), line up the bolt and screw it in. Really quite simple.

I wouldn't use just two if I were you. I actually bought some other clamps and have four on each rail.... I made some modifications to the rail to accomodate a CB.

If you need additional help on how to do this, let me know... but do it quick, as I leave Tuesday morning for Iraq.

Thanks for the responses everyone!
I have found similar tops that I am researching as well but I like the positive feedback and help.
Fr8train- Good Luck, God Bless and Thank You!

Do any of you also have the bed rail protectors (factory)? JUst wondering if these will get in the way at all? I'm also pretty much sold on the BakFlip.

Ahhh. Perfect fit. Cool thanks.

Thanks for the help, I'll try to stick those on some time soon. Although I've had this cover for close to a year ( September will be a year) and have not had any trouble.

So I just installed mine. It definitely interferes with the sliding bed divider...can't get past the middle clamp. I took it out for now and will try to find something smaller to use there. The interference on the ends will be tolerable. Another thing that annoyed me is that it seems I got a return...there was already some scratches on the powder coated rails etc...
oh well.
