TruXedo TruXport Soft Roll-Up Tonneau Cover
We designed the TruXport soft roll-up tonneau cover to deliver professional-grade truck bed protection without complicated installation or heavy lifting. This cover combines weather-resistant MaxTrax™ vinyl with a low-profile aluminum frame that sits flush with your truck bed rails, giving you a clean look and maximum cargo access.
The TruXport rolls up and secures behind the cab in seconds when you need full bed access, then unrolls just as quickly for complete protection. Our EZ-Dial™ tension control system lets you adjust fabric tightness from both sides of the truck, ensuring a drum-tight fit in any weather. Whether you're commuting daily or hitting the job site, the TruXport keeps your gear secure and dry.

- Low-profile design sits flush with bed rails for streamlined appearance
- Rolls up and secures at cab in under 60 seconds for full bed access
- Clamp-on installation requires no drilling and takes 30 minutes with basic tools
Materials & Weather Protection
The TruXport uses MaxTrax™ vinyl fabric specifically engineered for truck bed applications. This industrial-grade material combines tear resistance with UV protection that prevents fading and cracking through years of sun exposure. We reinforce the fabric with powder-coated 1-inch aluminum bows that maintain shape and support while resisting corrosion from road salt and moisture.
Weatherproof Sealing System
Our aluminum side rails create a continuous weather seal along the bed edges, while front and rear seals prevent water intrusion at the cab and tailgate. The fabric’s textured surface sheds water quickly and won’t pool or sag after rain. During testing, the truxedo truxport soft roll-up tonneau cover maintained a dry truck bed through highway rain and automated car washes. The vinyl surface wipes clean with soap and water, and the material resists mildew growth even in humid climates.
Installation & Adjustment System
We built the TruXport with a clamp-on rail system that secures to your truck bed without drilling holes or permanent modifications. The installation process takes approximately 30 minutes using only a ratchet and the included hex keys. Our side rails fit inside most factory bed rail channels and work with spray-in bed liners up to 1/4-inch thick.
The EZ-Dial™ tension control represents a major upgrade over competitor covers that require manual bow adjustment. Turn the dials on either side of your truck bed to tighten or loosen the fabric tension, compensating for temperature changes and fabric break-in. This system maintains consistent tightness without the need to open the tailgate or remove the cover. The integrated rail clamps include built-in adjustment slots that accommodate slight variations in bed rail spacing across different truck models.
Roll-Up Operation & Cargo Access
The TruXport’s roll-up design gives you complete flexibility between security and full bed access. Buckle straps secure the rolled fabric bundle behind the cab, creating a compact 10-inch profile that doesn’t interfere with rear window visibility. The cover unrolls in one smooth motion and locks at the tailgate with our integrated latch system.
Partial Access Feature
You can also position the truxedo truxport soft roll-up tonneau cover at any point along the bed rails for partial access to front-loaded cargo. Snap fasteners along the rails let you secure the cover at multiple positions while maintaining weather protection over the rear portion of your bed. This design works especially well when you need to access tools or equipment stored near the cab while keeping materials at the tailgate covered. The roll-up mechanism includes reinforced stitching at stress points to prevent separation after thousands of open-close cycles.

Questions About the TruXport Soft Roll-Up Cover
Installation takes approximately 30 minutes for most truck models when working alone. The process involves positioning the side rails in your bed rail channels, securing the clamp assemblies, and adjusting the tension dials on both sides.
No drilling is required—you'll only need a ratchet and the included hex keys. First-time installers should allow up to 45 minutes to review instructions and ensure proper rail alignment before final tightening.
Yes, the TruXport accommodates spray-in bed liners up to 1/4-inch thick. The side rail clamps include adjustment range to fit over most liner applications while maintaining secure attachment to the factory bed rails underneath.
The cover also works with drop-in liners and bed mat products. If you have an unusually thick liner application or custom bed modifications, measure your bed rail channel depth before ordering to confirm the clamps have sufficient adjustment range.
Turn the EZ-Dial™ adjustment knobs located on both side rails near the tailgate. Rotating clockwise tightens the fabric, while counter-clockwise loosens it. Check tension after the first week of use as new fabric naturally stretches slightly during break-in.
You may need to retighten the cover during extreme temperature changes—vinyl contracts in cold weather and expands slightly in heat. The dual-dial system lets you adjust from either side of the truck without opening the tailgate, and proper tension eliminates fabric flapping at highway speeds.
Yes, the TruXport features snap fasteners along the side rails that let you secure the cover at multiple positions. Roll the fabric forward to your desired position and snap it to the rails for partial bed access while keeping the rear section protected.
This works well when you need items stored near the cab but want weather protection over cargo at the tailgate. For full bed access, roll the entire cover forward and secure it behind the cab using the included buckle straps.
No, the TruXport's integrated latch system works with your factory tailgate mechanism. The cover includes a latch assembly that secures to the front bed rail and connects to your existing tailgate latch, allowing normal open-and-close operation.
You can open and close your tailgate with the cover in place without removing or rolling up the fabric. The locking feature secures both the cover and tailgate simultaneously when you use your factory lock cylinder.
The TruXport provides excellent water resistance for everyday use and highway driving in rain. The MaxTrax vinyl fabric sheds water quickly, and continuous side rail seals prevent moisture intrusion along the bed edges.
Front and rear seals protect against water entry at the cab and tailgate. During car washes and heavy rain, the truxedo truxport soft roll-up tonneau cover keeps bed contents dry. Note that extreme weather conditions like standing water pooling on the cover or sustained heavy downpours may allow minimal moisture intrusion, common to soft roll-up designs.
The TruXport offers theft deterrence suitable for everyday cargo protection. The integrated locking tailgate latch prevents casual access to your truck bed, and the tamper-resistant rail clamps require tools to remove.
The heavy-duty vinyl resists cutting better than tarps but can be compromised by determined thieves with knives—a limitation of all soft tonneau covers. For maximum security with valuable equipment, pair the TruXport with a locking toolbox or consider a hard folding or retractable cover from our collection.
