DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- The GMT900 platform Silverado and Sierra still fill driveways and job sites across America — and this cover is made for them. The 5.8ft Soft Roll-Up Tonneau fits the 2007-2013 1500 short bed with a no-drill clamp-on design that takes about 20 minutes to install. PVC fabric and aluminum rails keep your cargo dry and secure, whether you’re commuting, hauling, or parked at the boat ramp.
- At 5.8ft, this is the standard short bed that Chevy and GMC put on millions of crew cab trucks. The roll-up design gives you full bed access when you need it — no wrestling with heavy panels or storing hardware in the garage. For a truck that’s still working hard, this cover adds daily protection at a price that won’t hurt.
Key Features
- GMT900 Platform Fit Rail profile and clamp spacing calibrated to the 2007-2013 Silverado/Sierra 1500 bed rail dimensions. Clean fit, no gaps — designed for your truck, not adapted from a universal template.
- UV-Resistant PVC Fabric Double-sided vinyl treated for sun exposure. Holds its black finish without turning chalky or gray — important for trucks that live outside.
- Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Side Rails Lightweight, rigid, and corrosion-resistant. Won’t rust or pit, even on trucks exposed to coastal air or winter road treatments.
- Full Roll-Up for Bed Access Release the tailgate latches, roll forward to the cab, and strap down — full 5.8ft bed access in under 30 seconds. Side rails stay mounted.
- No-Drill Installation Clamps directly to the factory bed rail lip. All hardware included. No permanent modifications — remove the cover in minutes if needed.
- Adjustable Tension System Fine-tune the tailgate latch tension for a weather-tight seal and minimal wind noise at highway speeds.

Installation Overview
This cover installs in 20–40 minutes with basic hand tools — no drilling, no cutting, no permanent modifications. The aircraft-grade aluminum side rails clamp directly onto your factory bed rails. Position the rails, tighten the clamps, roll out the fabric, and adjust the tailgate tension for a weather-tight seal. One person can handle it; a second set of hands cuts the job in half.
FAQ
Q: Does this fit the 2007 “Classic” Silverado?
A: No. The 2007 Classic is the previous-generation (GMT800) body style. This cover is designed for the 2007-2013 GMT900 platform. Check your truck’s body style — if it looks like a 2003-2006 model, it’s a GMT800 and this cover won’t fit.
Q: Will it fit both Silverado and Sierra?
A: Yes. The Silverado and Sierra share the same bed dimensions on the GMT900 platform. This cover fits both brands identically.
Q: How does the 5.8ft cover compare to the 6.5ft version for bed access?
A: Functionally identical — just sized for your bed. The 5.8ft cover is slightly easier to roll up solo because there’s less fabric to manage, but both work the same way.
Q: Can I use this with a bed rug or bed mat?
A: Yes. The side rails clamp to the bed rail lip, so floor-level accessories like bed rugs and mats have zero interference. Over-the-rail bed liners may need small notches at the clamp points.
Q: Need a cover for a Silverado/Sierra 6.5ft bed or newer model?
A: For 2007-2013 6.5ft beds, see our GMT900 6.5ft cover. For 2014-2018 models, we carry K2XX 5.8ft and 6.5ft covers.
