Title: Tailgate seals
Post by: Bobberineyes on September 09/22/20, 04:16:47 PM
Anyone ever tried these? I had to do something,  it was either this or everything that I didn't want dusted up under the tonneau cover had to go in totes. So far it looks to seal up pretty good but around the latch I could use a few small pieces.

I may need those.  My truck gets dusty as heck when I cruise gravel roads.  How much?

I haven't, but I may if it works good for you. Mine gets plenty dusty when going down the gravel roads to. Or snow dust in the winter.

I think its going to do the trick, after a weekend of pounding gravel chasing roosters the back is pretty bad. For some reason it seams this tailgate has a bigger gap than the GM's.

I can't say GM is any better on the gap of the tailgate.

My 2016 Ram with a new Leer topper leaks a lot too.  I need something like this.

I did buy this seal and it worked pretty darn good.  I ran a lot of gravel on deer opener and had some dust but not near as bad as it was.  I also used Gorilla tape to seal holes by my tie downs in the box.  Was only about $23 and went on easy.  Best to do it in a heated garage.  The guys at Radco said some trucks work better if you do it upside down.
