Hi All Ram owners
i have a new 2022 ram limited 1500 with a ram box, water is leaking in the gap between the ram box and tailgate

anyone knows of any seals you can buy to fill this gap looked on Mopar parts with no luck,

Much appreciated any help or links,

Thanks

I purchased the strip of rubber that fits between the bed and the "cab". I cut two sections from it and trimmed them to fit between the box and the tailgate and held them in place with "plastic rivets" (had to drill two holes). It did not seal it completely, but it did seal it about 99%. I can't take photos right now but if you need a photo I can send one tomorrow.
 

Or you can just buy tailgate seal and make your own

I must say, that's pretty nice. I couldn't find anything like that when I designed mine. It's basically the same design I did but it's much sturdier. Gee...I might order those. (y)

Tried the whole tailgate seal before and didn’t last to long before it became undone and lost somewhere.


This was a way better solution.. looks well made haven’t gotten a chance to install them yet since I might swap covers soon but I’m willingly to bet it’ll work fine.
