4 fold tonneau cover combined with flex air pin box

[dmorais59]

I just bought a new F3 50 diesel with a six and three-quarter foot box, A 37 foot cougar fifth wheel, and a four panel Tonneau cover by Rev, Ford factory oem, similar to flip bak. I would like to know if I were to buy the flex air pin box whether it would hit my 4 fold Tonneau cover folded to the front of the box. Without buying it and installing it and hooking it up I have no idea if it would hit. Did anyone try this? Any help appreciated.

We have a BakFlip 4 panel on our 2017 3500 Ram. I must fold it up against the rear window or I will damage the Road Warrior during some turns. I know this happens because getting fiberglass repair now from NOT folding it up.

I had not folded it up several times but went into a campground and during a turn on a rough road truck pitched up camper pitched down result hole in bottom corner of nose. Result $2500 of repairs.
So I will now always fold up against rear window of truck

You can probably find dimensional information on the flexair online from lippert components site or ask them directly and compare it to the stock pin box (example 1621 box would be a 328492 / 18K)
You also didnt indicate your hitch type i.e. slider or fixed?

Do you have access to the trailer to check dimensions? I would think its the trailer not the pin box per say that will be the predicating factor for clearance above the bed line. The flexair wont be any wider than stock pin box only taller?
