Decked with a Diamond Back cover?

[trust]

Does anyone have the combo with the decked system and a diamond back cover over it? Id like to get an idea how much space is between the decked lid and the inside of the Diamond Back. Im 99 % convinced that the decked system makes no sense for me, well maybe 91% because I cant git gas cans betweren it an my soft tonneau, the DB renders that moot and perhaps I could even get away without carrying cas on the top of the DB....

should have spent the gladiator money o the scrambler....

DB and decked system would eat up a bunch of your payload as well.

If these dimensions are correct (12.19" H) that would leave about 5.3" to 5.8" clearance from the Decked surface to the underside of the Diamondback (depending what part of the DB your under).

ahh thanks, thats about what I figured, not much even for flat stuff. I think I may just abort on the Decked, just love the concept, heck I built a drawer system for my scrambler long before they were a thing.... and 800 for nearly new is tough to pass on but Im afraid I should. New if I could just find a DB for 800.....

Thanks guys, Yeah youre right about the payload but I dont pack heavy really, just disorganized....

I have struggled with this. Ended up going with a Maximus three cargo/t slot system. It’s not weather proof but I can put storage bins slid underneath and strap crap on top. Works great. I had to buy an extra slat cut it and put two nut serts in the bed/body underneath to hold 1 more slat. Ultimate in security.

hmmm now that is interesting, Im not familiar with that at all, can the slats be pressed together to be more weather resistant? Thanks for adding another variable to my equation.... lol

thanks

Love my DB. Not a fan of Decked. Just doesn’t fit my lifestyle.

Thanks sarge, I'm kind of leaning back towards the toolbox hard tonneau again but ....
