lexluthier72 Posted October 29, 2011 Author Share Posted October 29, 2011 Hey All, Here is an update: I got 2 crossmembers installed. The rod is 1/2inch conduit. the "rod cups" are PVC. There will be 3 of them, but the hardware store ran out of pvc. Here's the crossmembers: And....Here is the cover installed: It may take a couple days for the canvas to relax onto the bed rail/tailgate. We used a marine grade spray on waterproofing for canvas. It's supposed to rain tonight...we shall see.... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexluthier72 Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 For anyone considering making one of these. Have them unfold the canvas at the store and carefully examine it. I have already found a few defects in the weave of the canvas that I'm going to have to sew shut, and re-water proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
