Construction & Design

The Switchblade is constructed from lightweight yet robust aluminum panels that provide strength without adding excessive weight. These panels are bonded with ArmorTek, a proprietary padded weather-resistant polymer that offers a soft-top appearance and feel while maintaining security and durability. This unique ArmorTek layer protects against UV rays, rain, and debris, ensuring long-lasting performance and a premium finish.

The cover’s continuous tension spring mechanism is engineered for smooth, reliable operation, allowing the cover to roll effortlessly into its canister. This design not only enhances usability but also extends the life of the cover by reducing wear on moving parts. The full-width handle and pull strap add ergonomic convenience, making it easy to open and close the cover even with one hand.

Installation & Fitment

Installing the Pace Edwards Switchblade is straightforward and requires only basic hand tools—a 7/16 inch wrench and a Phillips head screwdriver. The cover mounts securely using clamps, eliminating the need for drilling or permanent modifications to your truck bed. This clamp-on system protects your vehicle’s finish and allows for quick removal when you need full bed access.

The Switchblade is specifically designed to fit 8-foot beds on Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 models from 2009 to 2021, including various engine configurations such as the 5.7L Hemi, 6.7L Diesel, 6.4L 392, 3.0L EcoDiesel, and 3.6L V6.
