Install Instructions for RAM
Install Renegade Cover on your RAM
“Guts. Glory. Ram.” may be the classic RAM slogan, but let’s be real…it’s Chuck Norris that made the brand what it is today. Whether you prefer Walker, Texas Ranger or Yellowstone, RAM trucks are definitely a popular choice. But if you really want to push your RAM to the limit, you’re adding a Renegade Cover to your setup. Once the wait is over and you’re ready to install your cover, note that the install instructions for RAM can be found here. That said, it may also be helpful to consider the following.
Preparing to Install your Truck Bed Cover
The most important consideration before you install your Renegade Cover on your RAM is if it’s a 2015 or newer. If you have a 2014 or older model, the install instructions for RAM may be slightly different and it’s important to reach out to our team for additional information. Otherwise, carry on.
In general, when installing a Renegade Cover, you’ll want to have the following on hand:
- Measuring Tape
- Box Cutter Knife
- Ratchet
- 3/4” Open End Socket Wrench
- Another 3/4” Open End Socket Wrench, or a Crescent Wrench
- Work Light
- Blue Loctite
RAM Truck Bed Cover Installation
In addition to the above, to install the Renegade Cover on your RAM Truck, you’ll also need the following tools:
- 1⁄2” Socket Wrench
- 1⁄2” Deep Socket Wrench
- 3⁄4” Open End Wrench
- 1/8” Allen Wrench
- Needle nose pliers
With the right tools gathered, it’s important to next familiarize yourself with the different parts of the Renegade Cover, like the Slide Latch, Spring Plunger, and Latch Post. The best way to do this is reading through all the instructions once, before beginning any work. While this is a lot to ask, it’s worth it in the long run, we promise.
Maintaining your Renegade Cover
Fast-forward to when you’re Renegade Cover is installed and you’re caught up enjoying all its perks. Make a mental note now that it’s important to care for it regularly, just like your beloved RAM truck.
For example, if you start to notice the bed liner coating is fading, use a roller to roll on Armor-All protectant to make it look like new! Also, if the Slide Latches begin to increase in resistance, it’s probably just time to spray garage door lubricant into all of the openings inside the Latch and cycle the Latch. This may simply be a part of your annual maintenance, but if you’re often in dusty or dirty conditions it’s a good idea to do it more often.
