    Picked up a cap for my 15 from marketplace. Trying to fit it and am not sure if it needs to go up an inch or not. There is a metal lip on the front that I feel like might scratch paint if it gets moved up much further. Tried looking for other pictures but nothing too specific out there. Anyone with similar setup able to tell me if this looks right? Thanks!

    That’s about right, it’s whatever seals the best, but correct it’ll rub with bed flex potentially. I’ll try to get a pic of mine. The tailgate corners aren’t the greatest fit.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    As long as it’s not touching the cab, I think you’re good.
