General announcement to remove the lower bed to car seal on all 4th and 5th gens. I have less than 1k miles and have had the truck a month and just got around to doing it. Already wore through the paint a bit and I’m not 100% sure why ram does this. Would it be hard for FCA to apply PPF to that are so the seal Doesn’t contact the paint? Perhaps make the seal Shorter so it doesn’t rub?
This is the long rubber seal at the bed where it meets the cab under the truck. Basically above the gas tank, exhaust etc. it’s kind of a pain to get off with the plastic Christmas tree fasteners but I did this on my 18 as well.
Below you can see the damage after 970 miles. I’ve applied alittle fluid film and rubbed it on with my hand to prevent rusting.
