Will the BAK Revolver X2 Work with a 5th Wheel Tailgate on a 2017 Ford F-350
Question:
Hello, I have 2017 Ford f350 8 foot bed. I have purchased and use the stromberg Carlson 4000 series 5th wheel locking tailgate I bought from etrailer. My question is: will I be able to use this cover when not towing the fifth wheel with the stromberg tailgate? Will it be secure and will it lock?

Expert Reply:
The BAK Revolver X2 Hard Tonneau Cover part # BAK39331 which is a fit for your 2017 Ford F-350 installs independently of the tailgate nor does one need to be present in order to use it. I took a look at the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate part # VG-15-4000 and it does not appear to extend up past the bed rails therefore, I don't believe you will have any issues.
I took a look through the reviews for the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate and several of them are using theirs with similar tonneau covers so I again don't think you will have anything to worry about but just keep in mind it's not going to have as nice of a fit as it would when used with the factory tailgate.
I have attached a photo of this tailgate used with a similar tonneau cover for you as well.
