Hey guys. Just honestly curious at this point. Was messing around with 3D printed stake pocket covers and came to realize that the holes in my stake pockets are not centered... from googling, it looks like everyone else's I've seen are centered. Check out these pics.

Just seems weird! Only things I can come up with are that Ford updated the hole placement, or that mine are just a manufacturing error, or that my tonneau rails (Bakflip MX4) are snugged up so tight that they're pushing/flexing the plastic rail covers outward, but that seems like it'd be a good amount in order to off-center the holes so much.

Just curious if anyone out there can report back on theirs. Thanks!

Don't know never had mine off and probably never will as my tonneau cover sits on top of them.

Is that a hard trifold? Curious the model. I bet that helps with stopping the pesky leaks!

While I didn't take the caps off, I can feel underneath and on top and tell mine are centered.

Yes hard trifold made by Bison tonneau covers here in Canada. It more than likely a knock off of one that's way more expensive. I got it on sale for $500(Canadian). I get just a bit of water maybe a oz or 2 with the majority coming in around the tailgate.
