    Just installed my Diamondback SE cover this past Wednesday. Didn't have have time to pull the Front bed bulkhead to finish out the weather sealing as outlined in the DB install due to current weather and temperature.
    But, I have noticed that the removable front bulkhead is taller than my bed side rails. Is their something I should be aware of prior to doing the final sealing like the end caps, flange etc. can I slot the fastener holes and help maybe get 1/16 of an inch to move it to more flush with rails. the fwd Diamondback back cover is slanted up a bit and I used 50lbs to set up the lock rods. Be nice if it was flush.
    Also, thinking about using a bonafide sealant applied to the bulkhead tube/flange rather than the weather striping supplied.
