What did u do to your raptor today?

[Wilson]

Here is the same area with new tape installed, there are about 8 holes on each side of the truck under the rockers where the running boards bolt on.

Did you forget the one in the back or just not done yet?

Will Gorilla tape work for covering those holes?

I used the black heavy duty Gorilla tape about 8 months ago and it's been holding up fine.

Thanks. That's what I have. Will give it a try...

X2. I used gorilla tape and HVAC tape on other holes to see which held up better. Neither one has failed.

That's good to know.

That's actually in the front and it may appear like it is a hole, but it is not.

That hole you see is an open area to the fender and not the inside of the rocker panel, just to clarify.

Corona, how is it that I'm coming up on 140,000 miles and I'm just now hearing about this? Lol

Give us a review on how those RTs perform. I was debating between these and the Cooper STT Pros and ended up with the Coopers. Not a bad choice, just wondering how the other option is.

What material did you use for your dovetail edge?

The best stuff is the textured stuff with metal ribbing you can get from mcmasters. I used it on my dovetail and where I cut my bed for my bypass rack

And how to coat them with Amsoil HDMP before sealing up with tape:
