Does this come with all mounting hardware?

The cover assembly is included. Confirm rail attachment points with your truck's factory bed rails before installation — most trucks from this generation mount at standard rocker locations, but test-fit first to verify your specific setup.

Can I open and close this cover while the truck is loaded?

Yes. The roll-up design lets you access your bed anytime without removing or securing the cover to the side rails. Just roll it back, haul what you need, then roll it closed.

What prep does this need before installation?

Clean the mounting surfaces on your bed rails with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. No sanding or primer needed — the cover is ready to mount straight out of the box.
