I do all my air lift adjustments at the rear of my truck. Will this hold up well being exposed to the elements?

Probably not doc. I have mine in a tacoma mounted inside the built in bed storage compartment. I wouldn't want it exposed to rain, dirt, mud...etc.

I don't think so. Neither the compressor or the guage/ switch are in a water proof enclosure.

It will do OK in wind. My previous one was anchored to the ground by burying the feet and held up OK in 70 MPH gusts. heavy snow can be a problem as they get older and the tarp starts to sag a little. I tend to go out with a broom and bump off the snow from the underside if we get more than an inch or so.

Yes. 100%. The truck can be totally under water without a problem. I own 2 of them. Best basher out there.

Yes it held up and no water in my bed after running it through. I had mine for almost three years, with the truck being parked outside. The cover material was in great shape. Only gripe was I had one of the plastic hinges break. When i got a new truck i gave it to a friend who is still using it and it still looks good.

Rather tough, do a couple layers to be safe with rocks, I use it as bed liner, cover bumpers, Ive done a frame of the truck I'm restoring.

Yes. This cover works best on a trailer. I have had no issues with the cover while towing.

I would think so! I don't have any experience with air shocks on a pickup, but I did have them on a car a long time ago. I like the fact that you are not doing anything to the stock configuration, but are adding assist when you need it. I've had my Airlifts in since July and have been super-happy with the the versatility.

If its properly installed it will stand up to winds very well. We have had winds from light to all day 25mph winds and storms up to 75mph we have had it almost a year no problems.

Very well. We live in the Atlanta area and get lots of rain. We use our truck to haul a lot of stuff and have really enjoyed the BakFlip. You will get a few drops around sometimes. In general, it's really pretty good. I'd say water resistant and almost water proof. We depend on it and it works great!

Absolutely not. Wind, rain, pretty much any element is an issue. I'm on my third one and my review is changing as I realize how few things it stands up to. It's perfect for what you are describing but if the wind is heavy you are in trouble. I have anchored it down but then came the rain and it caved in.

I would think it would be fine, i used it under a fender on a motorcycle and has held up well so far (3 mos)

We haven't had winds that strong since I installed it but I think it will hold up if installed properly. The anchors seem very well made to me. Hope that helps.

With a decent wind, it might not hold. I am not the manufacturer, but I would not recommend that use for these. I can just see the tarp getting pulled by wind and scratching the vehicle pretty easily.

I use this on a 2004 Giant Yukon and I'm rough on it. I weight 240 lbs and it stand up to my abuse while I barrel down stairs and curbs on my campus daily. Just make sure your air pressure is good and it'll be fine.

Yes, I run mine in my mud race truck that is exposed with very little protection, it holds up very well to the elements and vibrations. Very easy to mount and wire up.

I have had it in rain and low wind and it did fine with the fly on but be sure to upgrade the stakes.

I believe it will be fine. I would use some dry silicone spray to help with moisture but the aluminum should hold up well.
