Features
- Two Thirds of the Bed, Open: Unlatch the two rear clamps and fold the cover up toward the cab, and about two thirds of the bed opens up. Two built-in buckle straps hold it folded so you can drive that way; Extang asks that both straps are buckled and the tethers stay attached, and never a half-open cover on the road.
- Self-Locking Rear Clamps: EZ-Lock clamps at the tailgate end are spring-loaded. They stow in the cover rail, swing down to hook under the bed rail and lock themselves once they're clamped, then release by hand when you want to fold the cover.
- Off in Seconds, No Drilling: Jaw-Grip front clamps hold the cab end with no holes in the truck. When a load needs the whole bed, loosen them by hand and lift the cover out; putting it back on takes no tools either.
- Aluminum Frame, MaxHinges: The frame and support bars are aluminum with a textured black EnduraCoat finish. Every fold turns on a MaxHinge with two pivot points, which Extang uses to strengthen the joints and help them seal.
- Snap-On Triple-Fin Seals: Triple-fin seals snap on, with no adhesive, along the bed rails, bulkhead and tailgate. Extang says they exceed OEM standards, and a damaged seal can be replaced. Like any soft folding cover it resists weather but is not watertight.
- Leather-Grain Vinyl Top: The tarp is heavy-duty leather-grain vinyl with clean, rounded lines and a low profile. A patented corner-tuck system keeps it tight, so it doesn't sag as the temperature swings. Want canvas instead? That's the Trifecta Signature 2.0.
Description & Fitment
The Extang Trifecta 2.0 is a soft tri-fold tonneau cover for the 8' bed of the 1997-2004 Ford F-150 and F-250. It is for owners who want a leather-grain vinyl top that clamps on by hand with no drilling and comes off in seconds. Folded forward, it leaves about two thirds of the bed open, and self-locking rear clamps catch under the rail when you close it. An aluminum frame with dual-pivot MaxHinges and snap-on triple-fin seals round it out, backed by Extang's limited lifetime warranty.

About Extang
Extang is based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The Trifecta 2.0 is its soft tri-fold cover with a leather-grain vinyl tarp, and the successor to the original Trifecta; Extang publishes a truck-specific install sheet for each version.
The Trifecta 2.0 shares its frame, hinges, clamps and seals with the canvas-topped Trifecta Signature 2.0. Extang also makes the Trifecta Toolbox 2.0 for beds with a crossover toolbox.
Warranty note. Extang's limited lifetime warranty applies to the original purchaser, with warranty registration on file or a detailed, dated receipt. Keep your order confirmation from us, and contact us for warranty claims and registration help.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit my 1997-2004 Ford F-150?
Yes, if it has the 8' bed. Measure inside the bed floor from the bulkhead to the inside of the closed tailgate and compare it with the 8' label. If yours is different, look at the 1997-2003 Ford F-150 6'7" bed (92615). Not sure? Send us your VIN and we'll confirm.
How do I measure my bed?
Measure inside the bed floor from the bulkhead to the inside of the closed tailgate. Extang lists this bed as 8'. Truck makers often round their bed names, so compare the measurement, not the name.
What is the difference between the Trifecta 2.0 and the Trifecta Signature 2.0?
The tarp. Both share the aluminum frame, MaxHinges, Jaw-Grip and EZ-Lock clamps and the snap-on triple-fin seals. The Trifecta 2.0 uses leather-grain vinyl; the Signature 2.0 swaps it for heavy-duty canvas.
Will it keep rain and snow out of the bed?
It is built to. Snap-on triple-fin seals run along the bed rails, bulkhead and tailgate, and Extang calls the vinyl tarp moisture-resistant. Like every soft folding cover it is weather-resistant rather than watertight. Brush snow and ice off before you fold it; Extang's warranty requires that.
Can I drive with it folded open?
Yes. Stow the rear clamps in the cover rail, fold the cover all the way to the cab and fasten both buckle straps with the tethers attached; about two thirds of the bed is then open. Never drive with it partly folded.
How do I take it off for a big load?
Loosen the Jaw-Grip front clamps by hand and lift the cover out of the bed. No tools are needed to take it off or put it back. Trucks whose sheet adds clamp brackets keep the brackets on.
Installation
- Hand-tightened clamps
- Extang recommends a utility knife
Here's the short version. Follow Extang's install sheet (below) for your truck's exact clamp positions and hardware.
- Check the bed caps. If a plastic bed-rail cap hangs below the sheet-metal flange, trim away enough of it with a utility knife that each clamp bites on bare metal. Extang names 2004-2014 and 2021 F-150s and 2009-2019 Rams as the usual cases. Don't cut or scrape the bed itself.
- Set the cover in place. Lay the folded cover over the cab end of the bed, unfold it and shift it until it lines up at the cab and the tailgate, then fold it back up without moving it. Note where the front clamps sit.
- Tighten the front clamps. Seat each Jaw-Grip cab clamp under the metal bed flange (not the bedliner lip or a plastic cap) and turn it by hand until it touches, then two more turns. No wrench, and don't overtighten.
- Close it and latch the rear clamps. With the tailgate down and the front clamps tight, unfold the cover fully. Swing each rear clamp down out of the cover rail, slide it at a slight angle as far out toward the bed rail as it goes, then pull it straight down and let go so it hooks under the metal flange. Latch both sides.
- Attach the tethers. Open the cover. On a bed with plain metal flanges, clamp each tether (it hangs from the cover bow) to the flange and tighten the knob. On a bed with factory cargo rails, slide the supplied block into each rail, pass the tether knob through its lock washer and bracket into the block, move it up to the front bow and tighten. Do both sides.
- Recheck after a week. Re-tighten the front clamps and tethers after your first week of driving, and check them now and then. To drive folded, stow the rear clamps in the rail before you fold the second section, fold it to the cab and buckle both straps.
