Yes. TruckCoversUSA makes one. I have their regular cover and it's extremely high quality. Probably my number one functional mod in terms of cost to effectiveness. It was expensive but was definitely worth it. I love it.

Here's a quick video of mine:

I think you can get it at a few places online (AutoAnything, etc).

wow looks like a good cover looks durable, can u seat and stand on it, (how much weight can u put on top of it when its covering the bed??

and as of what i can see with the toolbox looks like that cover is made with the tool box, can i get just the cover and attach it to the toolbox i already have??

Yes it's very durable. Although I don't like to stand on it, I have before (and I'm a big boy ). It held fine. I can't remember but TruckCoversUSA says it's rated at either 300 lbs or 500lbs. Either way there would be a factor of safety in there, so I'd say it could take at least a 500-lb concentrated load.

As for fitting with your current toolbox, I'm not sure. I doubt it, but your best answer would come straight from them. Give them a call and see what they can do.

ight yea saw a picture of a cover and a person standing on it so i thought id ask 500lbs is alot of weight for it to hold, which is good,

yea ill call i dont need a tool box already got one, but thougth it be neat if they had a cover i could mount up to it, and it work the same way

BAK can custom make you their retractable Rollbak cover to work with any toolbox. You just have to give your dimensions and they can make one. The only thing I heard is that you might have to pay full retail price for the cover since it's a "custom" cover. I can hook you up with a great BAK seller, you can ask him. Just email me for the details.
