    The sides are the ultimate tailgate seal and the tailgate gap cover is the rok block seal. I ordered both on Amazon.

    Eta- the ultimate tailgate seal can also be used at the bottom of the bed to seal that part of the tailgate but I chose to use the other product to keep stuff from falling between the two.

    I saw that! I am going to order some for my next wax job. Any why is Amazon all of the sudden sold out?!? come on you all. LoL

    Not that this pertains to you. I am valving my spigot, that I just added by my diveway, for Cold Hard, Cold Soft, and Hot Soft water. Parts should be here by the 29th to complete the project. Hopefully I can get this wax by the 29th too. Stoked for my first Hot Soft water wash and wax job!!

    Looks like a great idea but I was wondering how this would allow any rain or car wash water in the bed to drain? My bed is open but I do occasional brush hauling and it would sure be nice not to have to dig out all the twigs and leaves from the tailgate gap. However I wouldn't want a bath tub...

    These bearings were under 2 bills with their bucket sale at Napaonline.com ordered online, picked up and paid for at the store.

    Somewhere on either the face or the back is a number molded into it. Take that number to the dealer and you should be able to get a repair wire.

    That number is crazy small. I use my phone and zoom in.

    There are drain holes near the cab side of the bed. I actually widened mine up a bit since they can easily get clogged with leaves, pollen, etc.

    There seems to be enough small drain holes/seams in the bed for any water that may get in to drain out. I have a cap so I’m 99% water free but I did think of what you said before I put this on. If the little bit of water that may get in doesn’t drain, I’ll remove it or figure something out.

    I get the part number (terminal repair and connector) from TIS
    It's how I'm installing navigation into my base model truck.

    I also get terminals from https://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Elec__Products/Connectors/connectors.html

    They sell it at Walmart I believe. Have only tried the spray and it’s great, but I have now ceramic coated the truck
