STEP 4: INSTALLING THE TOP COVER
Shut the tailgate and pull the rails back until the tailgate cap seals have good engagement
with your tailgate. A good way to check for proper engagement is to make sure the bottom
cap and tailgate have a 6mm gap (FIG 4A).

Another way to set the tailgate cap seals is to use
the Tailgate Seal Gauge as shown in figure 4B &
4C. You should be able to just slide the Tailgate
Seal Gauge in between the Tailgate Cap Seal and
the Bottom Cap.
WARNING: Proper Tailgate Cap Seal
Engagement is important for getting the best
possible water resistance out of your cover!
