2024 Ford Ranger Lariat FX4
I installed this kit last Friday after work on my 24' Lariat. There is a seal supposed to go on the tail gate, I glue mine to the end of the box as I have a spray in liner and that's were a bare painted edge was available. It took a bit to figure it all out, but once installing it all made sense. I have a retractable cover and it now seals up the box nicely. Drove through pouring rain on the highway and had a slight bit of water in the back lower corners of the box, but nothing else. I'll be adding a little foam tape to seal those up, then be trying it out on gravel. I want it sealed up so that it doesnt fill with dust on Gravel roads.
Which kit did you install? Link? I also have a 24 Lariat with a retractable cover. Could you post some photos of the completed job? Thanks

How was the install and does it keep trail dust out?
I installed mine today and followed the instructions. It did fit well even with the EGR Rolltrac bed cover that has seals of it’s own in the back. I followed the instructions but the side rubbers lifted after a few hours. I will reach out to Keko, maybe I didn’t use enough primer or it needs an additional glue? I also have the ESI kit and may mount parts of it for additional protection as that kit mounts in a different area on the sides.

Thanks, after studying it for hours today, I like these and where they are affixed. That could be the best kit out there.
I saw it on YouTube video a while ago but can’t find it. If I do I’ll post it.

Found this very helpful. I have a retractable cover and 400 yard gravel driveway so dust in the bed is an issue. Ordered the kit today, thanks.

If you installed it in the cold. It won’t stick appropriately. Just a word of advice.???

I installed the kit today and it took less than an hour. No interference with the tailgate dampener. The side seals will need a few warm days to form to the tailgate. Much better than the one size fits all type and well worth the few extra dollars.
