Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I keep my sliding windows and still use a rubber accordion seal truck bed?
Unfortunately, no. The slider windows must be removed because the rubber accordion seal truck bed requires a clean flange or wall to attach. Sliders block access to this area.
- Will the rubber accordion seal truck bed work on a walk-through truck conversion?
Yes! This is a perfect use case. The rubber accordion seal truck bed allows you to join the truck cab and camper shell or utility box with a weather-sealed, flexible connection.
- Is there a certain glue that can be used in conjunction with the accordion boot?
The rubber boot does not require glue for installation. This is because there is a spring clip embedded it the rubber. When the boot is placed over a flange the spring clip squeezes the rubber securely. The only place you may want to glue the boot is where it meets. This is however optional. To glue the seam where the two ends meet, you can use cyanoacrylate (i.e. SuperGlue). Do not use any petroleum based glues as it will react negatively to the rubber. (i.e. rubber cement).
