Greetings:Considering on purchasing a roll up tonneau cover for my F350 cc/sb looking at Pace Edwards and Retrax. I have Curt 20 hitch on the slider, my question is eye balling across the bed rails it looks close that coulper release handle comes close to the top of bed rail and was wondering if someone has the same setup and if they had any issues with it hitting the roll up cover?Thanks in advance,Protector

I have a Pace Edwards on my pick up. Have had it on two pickups actually. I don't have a hitch in my bed but the cover sits on top of the bed rails. If your handle is below the rails you should be OK. By the way, I love this cover. You can lock it up and not have to worry all the time about your contents.The canister does sit below and takes up about 14" of the front of the bed with probably 12" of space under.

Hey! I have a hitch in the bed with a pace Edwards cover. All I do is push the handle down in the front. Works for me. If I had to do it again I would go with the retrax unit. Good luck.

We have the Retrax that works well for us. On our Dodge, the Reese hitch is slightly lower than the Retrax. We have the short bed truck.

I've got my BW hitch that fits nicely under the Rolbak. Works great.

I do not have the Curt hitch but do have the Pace Edwards Full Metal Jacket roll type cover. The handle on my Reese Elite does come close to the cover. Sometimes I use a bungee to pull the handle down (tilting the hitch plate slightly) just to make sure it is not rubbing under the cover.Lay a 2x4 across the bed rails and see just how close the handle comes to the board.

I have a 20Q Curt. It is as high on the mounts as it will go (top holes). My roll-up fits over it just fine.

I have a Curt hitch with a Retrax rollup cover and the Curt sits approx. 1" lower than the cover. I use the middle row of bolt holes in the Curt due to leveling the fiver and it's perfect. I believe your truck has a deeper bed with higher sidewalls so it should clear with no problem.

On the Reese I had previously the handle could be flipped over so that it was extending down towards the bed. Had no problem with operating it that way.
