Thanks to everyone that has posted in this thread with updated information and fixes. The first batch of caps finally made it out to the west coast and just installed mine this weekend and not surprisingly I ran into the same issue that everyone else has with the tailgate clearance.
I've read through the 35 pages of posts a couple of times and I still don't quite understand the exact placement of the fix with the 9/16" spacers in the back. It seems that some people have installed them under the clamp closest to the tailgate but when I look at the pictures and video posted by RSi it appears that they are under the very rear of the cap, further back than than the clamp closest to the tailgate?
I'm working on tracking down some 9/16" rubber to resolve this but if anyone has a definitive thought on the placement of the spacer(s) I would appreciate that. @RSI North America Inc is there any additional guidance?
Appreciate everyone's input on this. It seems like there are a lot of people frustrated by the damaged deliveries and shim requirements (which I understand) but from my perspective this cap is head and shoulders above anything else on the market for the Gladiator so I'm willing to work through some fixes with RSi to get it right.
