I bought the softopper before having bed rails installed and they sent the appropriate bed clamps. I later installed bed rails and ordered the datin fab rack. I had to remove the softopper in the meantime as the clamps don't work.
What I was wondering was the following:
1. Does the bed rack come with the appropriate clamps? I watched a yt video about the setup and they had to order the right clamps.
2. If not could I source some online or maybe locally somewhere that sells toppers for trucks?
3. Could someone with this setup show me a picture of the right clamps so I can attempt to find them.

Going through the same, although the Datin rack not ordered yet. I have installed the rail and ordered from Softopper the rail clamps to hold it down, they are about $6 each but with shipping it came to around $40 for the 4.

Anyone have a link to a video - or pics - of the softopper folding with the Datin rack installed? Do you have to remove the top cross bars?

there is a rail that sits on top of the bed. It has 3 mounting spots for each pillar. Everything north of the bed rail part has to come off before you can do anything with the softopper.

I guess I’ll be skipping the rack then. I still have the Softopper from my Dodge Dakota (not the truck though). It was really nice to put it on when needed and keep it stored the rest of the time.
I’ll be selling the old softopper to help pay for the new one.
