The Pro X15 TS is the one soft cover TruXedo builds for a truck that also has to carry something on top. Both side rails carry a T-slot channel from end to end, which is where crossbars, cargo carriers, load stops and tents attach, leaving the bed beneath them closed. The surface is the same 120-grade RTxTechWeave the standard Pro X15 uses, tensioned by the DriveTight header and released by a trigger latch on the driver side. Before you order, check whatever rack you own against TruXedo's compatibility guide, because the majority of the products on it are not a straightforward yes. Pick the truck in the selector above and the page resolves to a single part, its price and the sheet that governs fitting it.

Features
T-Slot Channels in Both Rails Each side rail is extruded with a slot running its length, and that slot is the mounting point for crossbars, cargo carriers, tents and load stops. It is the only soft roll-up TruXedo builds with rack hardware designed into the rail rather than bolted around the bed.
Bed Shut, Gear Overhead Because the accessories attach to the rails rather than to the cover surface, what you carry above the bed does not stop what is underneath staying closed. That combination, a covered box and a loaded rack at once, is the reason to choose this cover over its plain-railed sibling.
Check the Chart Before the Rack TruXedo publishes a compatibility guide for the T-slot, and it is worth reading rather than assuming. Five of the nineteen products listed are fully compatible, five fit but stop the cover from operating, and nine do not fit. The guide is linked in Resources.
The Quiet Canvas Top The surface is RTxTechWeave, a textured 120-grade composite laid up in five layers, held under constant tension by the front header so it cannot go slack and drum. That is the same surface the Pro X15 uses, and it is what separates both of them from a vinyl cover on a windy road.
A Tool in the Carton A 1/8" Allen wrench is supplied, which no other cover in the TruXedo range includes. It sets the grub screws in the four T-slot end plugs: two go in at the cab end during the rail install, the other two close the tail end once your accessory has been slid into the slot.
Rails Angled to Sit Low The 15-degree rail geometry drops the closed cover almost level with the bed caps, so adding rack capability does not mean adding height. Closed and unloaded, the truck reads as a covered bed rather than as a bed with a frame over it.
Tension You Never Set Again DriveTight sits behind the front header on a pair of spring plungers that take up slack as the fabric expands in heat and shrinks in cold. It leaves the factory set, and if it ever needs a nudge the adjustment is done by hand, on the warmest part of the day, in small increments.
Clamped On, Not Drilled On every application in this range the rails grip the box from inside using supplied hardware. No hole is made and no part of it is permanent, so the cover and whatever rack is fitted to it move on with you rather than staying behind.
Fitment & Compatibility
{{PENDING_FITMENT_TABLE:truxedo-pro-x15-ts}}
Use the selector above to set year, make, model and box length, and it will bring up the one part cut for your truck. Applications are listed separately because each has its own rails, its own hardware, its own document and its own price. Whatever you land on, read the qualifier attached to it: separate parts exist for a split tailgate and a plain one, for a Toyota deck rail and a bare rail, and for the Nissan track system, and swapping one for another does not work. Own a rack already? Check it against the T-slot guide first.

Installation
Type: Clamp-on side rails Β Β·Β Time: Under an hour Β Β·Β Difficulty: Level 1, one person
This is a Level 1 job by the manufacturer's own reckoning, inside an hour, one person, and the rails grip the box from inside on every vehicle in the range. The running order never changes: seals onto clean paint, rails trued against the bed caps and stood 3/8" clear of the bulkhead, three clamps a side, cab-end plugs fitted, cover seated until the guides click, hook-and-loop pressed home. Two documents cover this range. Toyota Tundra buyers get the second, because the clamping hardware on that truck is a different design. Nowhere in the range is a hole made or a panel cut. Set your truck in the selector and the page you land on carries the document that governs it.
Resources
Pro X15 TS Soft Roll-Up Installation Sheet (PDF), TruXedo's own guide, document 1119156 revision B. No vehicle is named anywhere in it, because it describes the series. It supplies the kit contents, the tools, the clamp figure and the two-stage order in which the T-slot end plugs are fitted.
Warranty, Shipping & Returns
Warranty. Two clauses run for the lifetime of this cover, one for the woven surface and one for the metalwork, which the manufacturer lists as rails, clamps and bows. Only the buyer named on the receipt is covered and that cover does not move to a second owner, so keep the paperwork or register it. Refused claims almost always trace to the same handful of conditions, and none of them is unreasonable. Use a mild automotive soap; anything with silicone or petroleum in it will be held against you. Drive only with the cover shut and latched, or rolled fully forward on both straps, never halfway. Do not let cargo bear up into the fabric. Clear frozen snow off the top before forcing it open. Look at the clamps a week after fitting, then occasionally. Keep the rolled bundle off the cab and the rear glass. Take the whole cover off before the truck gets towed backwards.
Free shipping. It travels as a parcel, not on a pallet, and stock usually ships inside 1 to 2 business days.
Inspect on delivery. This arrives by parcel carrier in a long box rather than strapped to a pallet, and that box absorbs whatever the journey throws at it. Give it a look while the driver is still standing there. Unpack it the same day and tick off the four plugs, the wrench and every seal against the diagram in the sheet: a short seal or a tweaked rail is a five-minute call in the first week and an argument in the third. Spares come to you straight from the factory. A note on the delivery paperwork at the moment of handover is what makes a replacement quick.
Returns. Unused items in their original packaging can be returned within 30 days of delivery. If an item arrives damaged, defective or wrong, return shipping is on us. See our Returns & Refunds Policy, or email support@prestigetruck.com with any question.
About TruXedo
The covers in this range are put together in Yankton, South Dakota. TruXedo backs a cover for its first owner and asks for a dated receipt when a claim is made, and it states plainly that a claim is only accepted where the seller was a dealer it recognizes. In a category thick with lookalike listings that is not a formality. Buying here means the manufacturer stands behind what arrives.
Within the TruXedo range the Pro X15 TS occupies a slot of its own: it is the company's soft roll-up built to carry a rack. Everything mechanical about it is shared with the Pro X15, which is the same cover on plain rails and the one to buy if nothing will ever be mounted above the bed. Below those two sit Lo Pro, the low-profile vinyl cover, and TruXport, the entry cover. The Deuce is the odd one out, rolling up from the tailgate and also hinging open at the cab end. Sentry and Sentry CT are different animals altogether, with aluminum slats under the surface and a key lock rather than a latch.
One pattern runs through this manufacturer's roll-up catalog: an aluminum structure, a skin pulled taut across it, and clamps that grip the box instead of fasteners that pierce it. The patents sit in how the tension and the closure work, and their purpose is that nobody has to go back and tighten anything by hand. What this model adds to that pattern is the machined channel in each rail, the four plugs that close it and the wrench that sets them. Fabric and hardware are each warranted for the cover's lifetime.
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on specs, fit and support
Which racks and accessories actually fit the T-slot rails?
Fewer than the phrase T-slot suggests, and TruXedo publishes a chart so you can check yours before you buy. Of the nineteen rack and accessory products on that chart, five are fully compatible and keep the cover working normally, including Yakima's eyebolts and its T-slot load stops. Five more physically fit the slot but stop the cover from opening once they are mounted, and two of those five need an extra kit on top. The remaining nine do not fit at all. The chart is linked in the Resources section of this listing. If a rack you already own is not on it, treat that as unanswered rather than as a yes, and call before ordering.
How much can the rails carry?
TruXedo publishes no load figure for the T-slot rails, so we are not going to invent one. What the company does publish is the compatibility chart, which tells you which accessories the rails are designed to accept, and the rack maker publishes the load rating for its own crossbars and towers. Between the two you have the real answer for your setup. What we can tell you is what the rails are: extruded aluminum side rails with a machined T-slot channel, clamped to the bed rail, with the cover's own hardware carrying a limited lifetime warranty.
What is the difference between this and the standard Pro X15?
The rails. Both covers use the same 120-grade RTxTechWeave top, the same DriveTight tension header, the same RTxGrip hook-and-loop closure and the same 15-degree rail angle, and both roll forward to the cab on a trigger latch. The TS adds a T-slot channel down each side rail so racks and cargo accessories can mount to the cover itself, plus four T-slot end plugs and a 1/8" Allen wrench in the box for fitting them. If you will never mount anything above the bed, the standard Pro X15 does the same job for less. If you might, the TS is the only soft cover in the range that leaves that door open.
Where does it leak, and what can I do about it?
Honestly: this is a weather-resistant lid, not a sealed box, and waterproof is a word the manufacturer avoids for every cover it makes. Three places let water past on any soft roll-up, and there is an adhesive seal in the carton for each of them: the bulkhead corners at the front, the ends of both rails, and the gap either side of a closed tailgate. Those seals only earn their keep if the paint under them is washed, then wiped with alcohol, then left to dry before the backing comes off, and if you press along the whole seal rather than the middle. Water that does find the rear corners is routed down the outer face of the tailgate onto the road. Under a pressure washer or in a long storm, count on some getting in.
What is in the box that I will not find on the standard cover?
Two things. The first is four T-slot end plugs, and the order they go in matters: one plug goes into the front end of each rail while you are installing the rails, and the other two stay out until after you have slid your rack hardware in from the tail end, then close off the rear. The second is the tool for them, a 1/8" Allen wrench, which TruXedo supplies. It is the only cover in the TruXedo range that comes with a tool in the carton. Each plug is held by a set screw, so the slot is closed rather than left open to fill with road spray.
Does fitting it involve drilling or cutting?
Nothing at all. Across this family the rails grip the bed rail's inner lip using the supplied hardware, no hole is made in the truck and the entire assembly can be taken back off when you move it on. Two things are worth knowing before you start. The side rails have to finish level with the bed caps, because the rear header latches off that alignment and a cover that will not catch is almost always a rail set low rather than a faulty latch. And the hardware is not the same on every truck: the Toyota Tundra applications use their own clamp set and their own installation document. The sheet in your carton is the one that governs your truck.
