Frequently Asked Questions
Will this cap work on both my bed style options?
Yes. This single cap is engineered to fit both Fleetside and Styleside beds for your model year, so you don't need to pick between them. Mount it at the factory attachment points on your tailgate.
Do I need to prep or paint this before installing?
The cap ships ready to install as-is. If you want to match your truck's paint, light prep with standard automotive sandpaper followed by primer and topcoat will give you the best finish. Test-fit first to confirm your mounting approach before committing to any prep work.
What fasteners do I need to mount it?
Mounting hardware is not included with this cap. You'll secure it at the factory tailgate attachment points—verify your truck's service manual for the correct fastener size and torque specs to avoid over-tightening or stripping threads.

Investing in OEM ensures you’re getting parts specifically designed for your vehicle, which can lead to better performance and longevity.

No, parts from Mopar, ACDelco, and Motorcraft are typically designed for specific vehicle brands. It’s crucial to ensure compatibility with your vehicle’s make and model by checking part numbers and consulting with a knowledgeable expert.
Can I install OEM parts myself, or is it better to have a professional handle it?
While some OEM parts can be installed by DIY enthusiasts, the complexity of installation can vary. For the best results and to ensure proper fitment and performance, we recommend having a trained mechanic install the parts, especially if you’re unfamiliar with automotive repairs.
Do OEM parts come with a warranty?
Yes, many OEM auto parts come with a manufacturer’s warranty that covers defects or issues. Be sure to check the warranty details for each part at the time of purchase, and keep your receipt for any potential warranty claims.
