Crucial Tonneau Compatibility & Functionality: Read Before Purchase

This ACS FORGED TONNEAU option is for the RACK ONLY and requires a T-Slot Rail Tonneau Cover (like ReTrax XR Series or Pace Edwards Explorer Series) for installation. For full Active Cargo System functionality, especially with the sliding load bar (patented U.S. Patent 9586629), we strongly recommend pairing this rack with a "powered" tonneau cover such as the ReTrax POWERTRAX PRO XR. Manual tonneau covers may restrict the sliding load bar's movement. Please watch the video below for a complete explanation of product functionality and limitations.

Important: Not compatible with RAMBOX or 60/40 Multifunction Tailgate.

Prop 65

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov
