Mopar tri-fold tonneau cover - Install Woes

[am1978]

That about sums it up except I never installed the rivet nut I used. I just wanted to make sure that the tool I bought could handle the rivet nuts part so I Compressed one Making it unusable so now I’m looking for another rivet nut

@Green_Gladiator did find the right rivnut. Let’s see where he sourced it from.

@sypeck, I thought he used—it’s what the link he posted in a msg to me. https://www.moparpartssurplus.com/p...M8x125x1778-Mounting/61589012/06511062AA.html

Could be the case. The one in that link looks like your correct rivnut, the diameter, you had in the side-by-side pic next to the one that was too large.

That is the OG rivet nut that came with the cover

So thanks everyone for your help on this I’ve decided not to install the Mopar roll up after all this…. Just ordered an undercover armor flex trifold…. If anyone in the northern New Jersey area is looking for a soft Mopar roll up with lots of extra rivet nuts I ordered a shit ton I will let it go cheap

I just bought these (6511062AA) and they are 2 big to fit in the hex hole> The small one is a M8 and came with soft roll up and fits fine the larger one is also a m8 part number (6511062AA) but you can see the hex size is 2 big to fit in hole in bed I scewed up and pulled one of the originals as a test to see if the tool could handle it now 2 weeks later im still searching for a replacement...LOL ps there will be a new Mopar soft roll up out in bulk trash this Wednesday ! Im done

Did you ever find out the part number for the smaller one? My cover was missing both inserts.

Thanks! I contacted the dealer, they are supposed to send me some since they were missing. We'll see if they are the right ones.
