Anyone have a tonneau cover on their Stepside?

What types are available for stepsides and if you have one, what brand, type is it? Cost?
I was looking around the JC Whitney website and there's no indication if the covers will fit stepsides.

Thanks.

Moe

Thumbs up

Moe,

I had one on my truck at one point and i loved it.

It fit real good and it looked good.

I still have the cover but the one i bought used adhesive Velcro to secure it to the bed rails & i didn't want the type you have to drill into the side of the bed and use screw on snaps.

Now here was the problem's with it.

1) My truck is black
2) I live in Fla.
3) Black + Fla. sun & heat = adhesive Velcro unable to stay adheared to my bed.

And yes i used some alcohol to clean the surface so it would stick per the direction's.

It was so long ago when i got it i don't remember the brand name or where i bought it from or how much i paid for it but i do have the recipt for it if you really want to know i can dig it out.

Now that I think about it my grandfather had something similar, with the snaps though...
