An improved rollable truck bed cover for securely covering a pickup truck utility bed that can be quickly mounted to existing truck beds without structural modification of the truck bed by adjustable guide track mounting clamps. The cover employs a pair of elongated guide tracks attached to the bed rail sidewalls by the use of clamps that engage the side surface of the truck bed without drilling or otherwise affecting the integrity of the truck finish. The adjustable guide track clamps are placed beneath the sidewall bed lip wherein tightening of the clamp places a upward pressure on the underside of the truck bed rail lip while placing a downward pressure on a support clamp essentially squeezing the sidewall lip securely attaching the guide track. A cover housing with reel is also clamped to the truck bed rails.
