My new retrax pro

Just finished installing a new Retrax Pro. It looks great but I have to say I think the Pace Edwards Bed Locker that I had on my old truck was a tighter fit and a bit more secure. I wanted to try something new , I hope it wasn't a mistake... Here are a few pictures.

What next???

looks nice!

Whats next? A NJ Raptor Meet!

Pretty! Looks **** on that black beast! Thats next for me after the bedliner.

That's a beautiful setup!

I got the Retrax (not the Pro) I love the look of the Pro now that I've seen it.

Love my Retrax all the same. They have GREAT customer service also!!!

I had my Retrax for 10 years on my Superduty. Used it all the time never had one problem ever. They make a great product (or sure used to).

Not really a fair comparison. The Bedlocker is an electric cover, the RetraxPro is not. However, Retrax does make an electric cover (called PowertraxOne).

On my 2005 SC the bedlocker was a heavier product with stronger rails and the clamps held better. Maybe it has something to do with the new bed rails on the raptor. Also the seal at the rear gate was definitely tighter. You couldn't stick anything in between the cover and gate to pry it open. The bedlocker closes against the gate and the retrax sits a little higher. And yes I pushed down on the rails as i tightened the clamps, even re did it a few times to get it as tight as possible. Don't get me wrong I do love the look and I'm sure it's a good product. It better be for 1500 clams. The paint is much nicer on the retrax pro and the cover is much smoother and quieter during openning and closing. For looks I say Retrax pro and for a little better security I would give it to the Bedlocker.
