Features

  • Folds up to the cab: Release the latches and fold the cover toward the cab to open about two-thirds of the bed, then fold it once more against the cab for full access without taking it off. Rubber bumpers protect the cab, and BAK says the third brake light stays visible in every position.
  • Built-in water drainage: The side rails collect water that gets past the seals and guide it to the front of the bed, where drain tubes carry it out.
  • Textured FRP top panels: Each panel has a textured fiberglass-reinforced polymer (FRP) top skin over a high-density foam core and a powder-coated aluminum bottom, so it stays light but rigid. BAK rates the closed cover at 400 lb, evenly distributed.
  • EPDM weather seals: EPDM rubber seals press tight to the bed rails, and rounded hinges help keep water and debris out; BAK lists a dual-action tailgate seal on most applications. Like any tonneau cover, it is weather-resistant rather than airtight.
  • No-drill clamp install: It clamps to the bed rails with the included hardware, with no cutting, trimming or drilling on most trucks, and BAK puts the install at less than an hour.
  • Panels latch automatically: Each panel latches to the side rails on its own as the cover closes. To open it, lower the tailgate and pull the release cable; the latches let go.

Description & Fitment

Made for one bed, the 5'1" box on the 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma, this BAKFlip F1 folds back in panels. Highlights are latches that catch the aluminum side rails as each panel closes and a third brake light that stays visible in every position (per BAK). It mounts on adaptor rails bolted to the factory utility rails, and BAK's sheet routes the drain tubes through a 5/8" hole in each wheel well. Fold it once for about two-thirds of the bed, or twice for all of it. If your bed is 6'2", look at 772427. The warranty is BAK's own: 5 years, limited.

Years Model Bed Notes
2016-2023 Tacoma 5'1" —

Check your bed: measure along the top of the bed rail from the bulkhead to the inside of the closed tailgate. This cover is for the 5'1" bed.

Not for: the 6'2" bed (772427). Each of those has its own BAKFlip F1 part number.

About BAK Industries

BAK Industries makes hard tonneau covers for pickups, among them the BAKFlip hard folding covers and the Revolver roll-up line. BAK's install sheets and customer service come from BAK Industries in Springfield, Missouri.

The F1 is the BAKFlip with textured, FRP-topped foam-core panels and a 400 lb rating. BAK describes it as close in look to the BAKFlip G2, which uses solid-core aluminum panels and is rated at 300 lb.

Authorized BAK dealer. Prestige Truck is an authorized BAK Industries dealer. BAK's warranty is for the initial owner who buys the cover, and BAK states: "Warranty registration must be on file and/or proof of original purchase (detailed and dated receipt) required for warranty to be effective." Keep your order confirmation; contact us for registration help.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit my 2016-2023 Tacoma?

Yes, if it has the 5'1" bed. For the 6'2" bed (772427), choose that part instead. Measure along the bed rail from the bulkhead to the closed tailgate, or send us your VIN and we will confirm.

Do I have to drill anything?

Only for the drain tubes: BAK's sheet routes them through a 5/8" hole drilled in the top corner of each wheel well, after checking below the bed for clearance. The rails themselves bolt to the factory utility rails.

How is the F1 different from the BAKFlip G2?

They look much alike. The F1 swaps the G2's solid-core aluminum panels for panels with a fiberglass-reinforced polymer (FRP) top skin over a high-density foam core and an aluminum bottom skin. BAK rates the F1 at 400 lb (the G2 at 300 lb), and the F1 carries a 5-year warranty against the G2's 3 years.

Will it keep rain and snow out of the bed?

It is built to. Wrap-around EPDM perimeter seals and rounded hinges keep most water out, and the rails channel what gets past them to drain tubes at the front of the bed. BAK's install sheet notes the cover is not airtight, so keep anything that must stay dry in a sealed container, and clear snow and ice before opening (a warranty condition).

Can I carry cargo on top of the cover?

BAK rates the closed F1 at 400 lb, evenly distributed. Its install sheet also says not to tie cargo to the cover or drive with objects on top of it, so treat the rating as a measure of strength, not as a roof rack.

Can I drive with it open, and will my third brake light show?

Yes to both. Folded once, buckle straps hold it; folded up against the cab, the prop rods lock it in place. BAK says the third brake light stays visible in every position. BAK's warranty requires the cover to be secured at all points whenever the truck is moving.

Installation

Install time Less than 1 hour (BAK)
DifficultyLevel 1simple installation (BAK)
TypeBolts to the factory utility rails with adaptor railsthe drain tubes need a 5/8" hole in each wheel well
Tools1/2" wrench or socket, a Phillips screwdriver, a T-30 Torx driver with a short extension and ratchet, and a drill with a 5/8" bit for the drain tubes

Here's the short version. Follow BAK's install sheet (below) for your truck's exact clamp positions and settings.

  1. Fit the adaptor rails. Remove the factory end cap from each bed utility rail, slide in three T-nut kits and refit the cap. Bolt each adaptor rail to the T-nuts (not the slotted holes), push it all the way toward the cab, and tighten while pressing the rail down; a second pair of hands helps.
  2. Seal the cab header. Remove the factory cab header (five fasteners; T-30 Torx with a 3/8" short extension and ratchet), clean its ends with isopropyl alcohol, stick the foam seals onto the header end caps, then refit it and torque the bolts to 7.5 Nm (66.5 in-lb).
  3. Clamp the side rails. Set each side rail on its adaptor rail, pushed toward the cab, and clamp them together through the upper slots (or next to the tabs, the sheet's alternate positions) so the rail sits flush and seals. Tighten all clamps to 10 ft-lb with a 1/2" wrench or socket. The drain tubes run through a 5/8" hole drilled in the top corner of each wheel well; check below the bed for clearance before drilling.
  4. Fit the cover. Slide the two cover retainer clamps into the track under the cover near the cab, and screw the two strap buckles to the front panel by hand with a Phillips screwdriver (BAK says no screw gun). Set the folded cover on the rails at the cab end, centered between them, and turn the retainer clamps clockwise until the lock washer is secure.
  5. Unfold and square it up. With the cover still folded, clean its top edge where it meets the cab (soap and water, then isopropyl alcohol) and stick the cab bumpers along it. Unfold the cover to the tailgate and check that each panel is centered side to side and front to back; the tail panel should overlap the tailgate by about 1/2". Shift it on the loosened retainer clamps if needed, then re-tighten them. With a power tailgate, make sure it still opens and closes with the cover shut.
  6. Check the latches. Release each latch to make sure it catches the side rails; the sheet shows how to adjust a slam latch that hits or misses. BAK's warranty asks you to re-check every clamp after the first week of driving and now and then after that.

Looks great and is simple to install, once you set the clamp correctly

I have had a number of bed covers, including rolling etc, and this was super easy to install. Note, critical to make sure the bed clamps are snapped into the rails to ensure proper rail orientation. Other than that, very simple, looks great. Advantages for me are its light weight, secure and only took less than an hour to install. What I like particularly is the space in the bed is not taken up by the opened cover. Highly recommended

Very well packaged, care and precision were definitely used in creating this product!

I am the 2nd time owner of a Backflip, this time the F1 for my 2024 Tacoma TRD. You can tell the precision and engineering that went into this as it fits perfectly. Upon installing I had a 7 inch rainfall gusher hit and put it to the test. Barely any drips! Outstanding. The care in packaging was also appreciated. Heavy duty cardboard and cushioning as well as properly placed foam and tape to keep any shavings from scratching. The only negative was I had to experiment with the clamps and switch the front cab ones to the alternate position as the lockdowns interfered with the clamp position. Other than that and having to adjust a few slam locks, it now sits and looks perfect and closes beautifully. You get what you pay for and I am beyond happy with the cover!

Great hard cover!

Great Tonneau Cover

Decided to spend the money because of the great reviews and am glad I did. Highly recommend watching the video instead of only relying on paper instructions. Only had one small material issue that kind of worked itself out. The sealing material where the edge of the cover seals to the bed rail cap was not glued on very straight on the driver's side of the cover. I had to really massage it to a place where I could get a seal. I also thought the Tacoma bed rail covers were going to leak like a sieve due to their textured and channeled design. But once the sun warmed up the seal on the cover, the sealing material eventually formed on the rails and is pretty water-resistant (not-waterproof). Great design and a great look, glad I bought this product.

Looks Good

Looks really nice on my 2019 Chevy Colorado truck. I do love the look. It is sturdy and easy to use once it’s put together. However I did receive it with a chip the size of half a dime on the side. Never returned it because it was kind of hard for me to put together so didn’t want to think of taking it apart and putting it back together again. Also water does get inside so not completely water proof however It serves its purpose.

Great quality

The BAKFlip F1 cover works great on my 8ft bed. The only thing that didn't fit is the foam seal at front of bed is not thick enough so I bought a thicker seal at hardware store. Otherwise, it keeps the bed contents dry during rain storms. Bed rail shims also had to be utilized to plumb up the rails. Shims are included.

Love the BAKFlip F1

I had a A.R.E. LSII cover on the truck prior to the BAKFlip and was not happy with it as the entire bed could not be utilized at once (such as hauling mulch, a washer / dryer, etc.) and decided to replace it with the F1. Install took less than 30 minutes and it was a perfect fit. I'm now able to use the entire bed and still have a strong and protective cover on the truck. Very little, and I mean minimal, water will get in when I go through a car wash. I feel comfortable leaving my tool box, suit case, etc. in the bed while it's raining. Absolutely no complaints at all and I highly recommend this cover.

Backflip F1

Bought the F1 because of the FRP panels. I know I would dent and scratch the aluminum version. Installation went well except for the big fat window bumpers they supply now. Decided to omit those since I won’t drive with it in that position. Pricey, but looks great, time will tell if it holds up.

2018 Toyota Tacoma Crew Cab Long Bed

Installed MX4 on my truck yesterday. One man job. Took about 2 hrs of no rush work. I will say there was lots of aluminum shaving and a few places where the finish was scratched but it was on the rails and hidden once the cover was on. There is no such thing as a waterproof cover and it poured rain for the last 2 days and I was very satisfied with the small amount of water leakage. One other point to make is the instructions showed a seal to put on the front bed top rail but when I put it on you couldn’t get the cover down far enough to put the attachment screws on. So I removed it and it fit perfectly. Over all impression is nice cover, looks great, keeps most water out but as far as secure goes, I’d say it would probably be fairly easy to just pull it up in the rear even with my tailgate locked. So be aware. I have no regrets so far.

Easy Install, Not water-tight

Installation was easy and straight-forward per instructions. The quality and finish of the cover is excellent. However, I did find some water inside the bed after a brief rain shower. There is not a good seal at either corner of the tailgate. With the design of the tailgate I am not sure this could be improved. Overall I enjoy the security, function, and style of the cover, and if no more water enters the bed than what I encountered during the rain shower, I can live with it. If you want a positive water-proof seal, it may be difficult to achieve (at least on a Tacoma).

Not a good cover

I bought this cover after the reviews and I was surprised it looks great. The problem is it flaps in the wind when you run 65 and above. The 2nd fold from the cab of the truck flaps up and down. I have a 2015 F250 when I called Bak Industries about this they said it does this with F250's. They sent me shims which don't help the problem. Its leaks from the corners. They offer no fix for this problem. This causes it to leak and not be very stable going down the road. I would not recommend this cover.

Perfect!

I’ve always wanted to put a tonneau cover on the back of my F350, so I looked at just about every one on the market. I wanted something that was strong, wouldn’t take up room in the bed when it’s opened up and above keeps out water. I finally decided on the BAKFlip F1. Installation was much easier than I thought and it fits perfectly. I live in Utah and so far I haven’t seen a drop of water in the bed all winter. I also really like the low profile look of it. I’d definitely recommend.

This is my third Bakflip cover liked my other two thought I’d upgrade to the F1 but am sorely disappointed. The panels seep rain water and are now waterlogged. All my tools get wet in rainstorms. It’s almost like the panel are missing a seal when manufactured .

F1 cover on F150

Cover looks great. Installation instructions very clear and easy to follow. Second vehicle I've put a Bakflip cover on. I like the security of a hard cover (with locking tailgate) and ease of access to the bed when carrying larger items

Would totally recommend this product!!!

Fast and smooth transactions, perfect fit, took my truck to South Lake Tahoe right after I installed the cover, went through rain and little bit of snow, all the luggage that was under the cover made it to our destiny completely dry, looks amazing and would totally recommend this product to anybody!!

Not as good as used to be

This is my second BAK Flip cover and there have been changes made to the rails and the way the cover attached to the rails. The rails seem thinner and narrower and the attach brackets are less secure than the previous thru rail design. Also the length of the cover is too short to securely cover both the front bed rail and tailgate. Time will tell if overall performance has been reduced.

Extremely Satisfied

After looking through many different style bed covers I found the Backflip suited my needs the best. It shipped quickly and arrived well packed in styrofoam. In my garage with just a few tools I found the installation very quick and easy with detailed instructions. Total install time was under one hour. The Backfkip fits my 2020 Toyota Tundra perfectly. After some heavy rains I was stoked to find the bed of my truck completely dry thanks to my new Backflip cover. I’m very happy with my choice.

Mounting holes were off

Mounting holes were off by 1/8” which caused me to have to file down one hole in order to line up the left rail properly. There holes were rough and looked to not have been filed down to prevent injury. Once the rails were mounted they angled downward not flat like the photos. This caused an issue with latching the last panel and required me to move the cover more forward then it should be. I could not correct this with tightening either and the self taping screws did little to secure the rail to the bed. Seems it only prevents it from detaching completely. Overall I like the look and the panels seem to be good quality that should last a while. However, I’m still concerned about whether the mounting hardware will hold up. For the price I paid I am not happy with the quality.

Leaking a lot of water

The F1 cover…Looks nice but don’t expect it to be anywhere near water tight. Disappointed

NOT blown away

The bakflip does its job, I suppose, but it won't stay up in the locked position while driving. The rods that hold it up come down when you stop and it bends the crap out of the cover. Not all that impressed.

I like the fact that you can open and use the full back but I was shocked how much water leaks in. I can not leave tools or anything in the back if I know it will rain.

Price vs Quality Not as Expected

Somewhat easy installation. Looks great. However, after several adjustments to the driver side rail, I couldn't close the gap enough to get a water tight-ish seal between the BF and truck bed. A waterproof seal wasn't expected, but a 1/16 to 1/8 gap wasn't expected either. The passenger side sets flush... As for the operation of flipping the panels, they work as expected, so far. I don't flip them on the daily to know if the cable that controls the latches will last 10 or 10,000 releases. The other hurdle was routing the drain tubes through the Dual Liner bed liner. This issue falls 100% on the bed liner. Dual Liner should/could accommodate for access to the bed plugs. All-in-all, I'm somewhat pleased with the purchase, which is reflected in my 3-star rating.

Leaks when truck sits

I know these covers are not waterproof but I certainly expected a lot better performance than what this cover is capable of for the price. The only time it doesn’t leak bad is when I’m driving down the road. If the truck is sitting in the rain, the pooling water leaks right into the bed and not just at the edges, all across the middle of each seam too. I had to apply silicone to each seam to slow it down. Appearance of the cover is great and the design seems to be capable of preventing water intrusion but evidently the assembly of the unit is poor. Very disappointing for the price I paid. I’ve had bed covers a third of the price outperform this cover for water resistance!

Backflip quality control issue

Love it other than missing parts and l had to fix one of the pull release was not crimped. Both the rear plastic end caps were missing leaving unfinished aluminum exposed and looks terrible. I was able to crimp the release cord so that is ok But trying to use a sharpie marker to cover the exposed aluminum ends at tailgate is a joke

Good, but

This is a strong, easy to install cover. It does not hold heat even tho' it's black; does get warmer inside, but when moving stays as cool as ambient temp. Inspite of factory claim - it leaks. In heavier rain it leaks a lot. I've adjusted and re-adjusted the channels. At this point wishing I'd bought the roll top system from another manufacturer I had on my former pickup.

Just OK

Seems the fit at tailgate is about an inch short. And the covet was advertised as 100% composite. It has aluminum top. Center is stir-foam filled. I had a lesser expensive model never leaked. This one allows water in when truck is parked. Overall wish I’d ordered the less expensive version. Looked better and functioned better.

Horrible experience

If I could give a zero I would. I purchased the cover on Sept 5th. Today is October 21st. You sent a used cover with missing parts. I had to wait on hold for about 45 mins to finally speak to someone, who was nice and helpful. She gets the 1 star! She puts through claim. I have to wait about a week for the return label. I have to schedule the return myself it’s been over 3 weeks since I returned it and no update. I sent a few emails and no response. Spending top dollar for a cover, customers shouldn’t be treated this way.

Terrible Quality

The plastic water drains tubes/collectors for the Ram Box rails are terrible and just held on with a small piece of sticky tape? (Will never fai) This is not +1K worth of quality, and better off with the factory option.

Put the Bakflip F1 on my 2019 GMC Sierra in April of 2023 and today the cover panels are so heavy I am not able to open them by standing by the bed side. I have to get into the bed or have someone help me from the other side. I have seen comments that say the panels hold water but something is making them heavy. Also lets water in like crazy at the tailgate.

Design flaw

I had a bakflip tonneau cover on my 2014 Ram 1500 with RamBox with the seal covering over the edge of the RamBox and it kept the bed dry. This new design on my 2021 Ram 1500 with RamBox has a gap between the cover and the RamBox allowing water to flow in - BAD DESIGN. Due to that and the poor quality paint job on the cover, I will not buy again.

BAKFlip F1

Although it's on the pricey side, it is a great looking cover. Achieved the flush aesthetics I was looking for. However, I wish it was more water tight. It seems every time it rains, there's plenty of water seepage, even with the drain hoses properly installed.

Looks Great - Easy to install

This is my first install and I installed it by myself in about an hour. It took longer with the Toyota tie down system that needed to be uninstalled and then reinstalled. It looks great on the 2019 Toyota Tundra. I seems to allow a little more water in than I thought but I am still fine tuning the installation. BAKFlip delivered it super fast and product was well protected by great packaging.

Very nice and solid. Looks really good on my new Tundra. Installation was simple and straightforward. I would suggest not tightening the mounting hardware until you have started all the bolts on the lower rails. Cover is not waterproof, could have done better with front rubber to seal it up.

Looks good, not so easy to align,time will tell final outcome

I had a lot of problems installing the cover. The tracks went in easily but when it was time to fit the actual cover to the tracks, things went south. Things wouldn’t line up. They tell you to use a hair driver to get things to lay down flat but the problem went beyond using heat. The rubber belt that runs Down each side have t’s to the rectangular tubing that forms enclose the sides of each panel. These inserts would pull out when the lid is being closed and jam the panels against the side tracks. Eventually the rubber covering that lined the track would wear down to the metal. In a few spots. One clamp holding the tracks came completely off. The next day in looking at the rubber belts on each side where the t inserts pulled out, it was evident that having the lid folded up actually stretched the rubber so it wouldn’t pull on the t attachment too much. The lid was delivered to me a…

Good so Far

I've had the F1 installed for just over a month. I like the appearance on my crew cab Chevy 1500. As it stands, I give it 4/5 stars. After having my hands on it I am not sure it is worth the price. Where can it improve? 1. The mechanism to keep the folded cover locked in pace when up against the cab is a bit poor. It doesn't really hold firm, and just seems a little too shifty. I don't trust it. 2. Length front to back seems an inch off. There should be a little more overlap of the front of the bed and tailgate. 3. Double sided tape (likely not heavy duty) is what is used to seal the rubber trim to the panels. It has already started to separate on one of the panels (which is how I know it double sided mounting tape. Foe the price... there is no reason at all that the adhesive should be separating.
