Bulkhead Cover/Cap

Looking for a bulkhead cap for my '14 Sierra 1500.

 

All I can find so far is this:

Seems OK but, I'd like something in grey if I can to match my OEM bed and tailgate caps.

 

Any suggestions? I realize if I had a spray in liner I could just have them go over the bulk head but, I have a drop in which I had to trim to make the undercover flex seal properly at the bulk head.

 

Thanks!

Anyone know if a matching rail cover is available for the bulkhead portion of the bed?

 

GM did a good job with the sides and back - wish they would have finished it all the way around.

 

Noticed most tonneau covers are not sealing in the front also without added weatherstripping.

 

Factory part or close matching aftermarket would work fine.

 

Anyone that loads ATVs knows this area is the first place that gets banged up.

Just get a spray in bed liner and you are good to go. Mine works great for my four wheeler.

Turns out the bulk head cover created the same issue as the bed liner portion that covered the bulk head which I had removed. Put the $10 seal from advance auto back on and no leaks, w/ the bulk head cover, massive leaks on the UC flex.

I probably will at some point. The truck is a lease, if I buy the truck at the end of the lease I'll have a top end spray in put in.

    • Thanks everyone for the help!   I'm going to stop into the scales one of these days and weigh my axels, for the time being, I am going to run Toyo's recommendations and also do a chalk test. I have a tire shop that's going to try their scanner to reprogram and set the the factory psi values lower, and if they can't I'm going to order a scanner and do it myself!
    • You won’t do better than stock exhaust without headers. Just put your favorite muffler on it and it will do the job. 
    • I have seen different people in different places post different sizes of exhaust as stock for my 2014 Sierra L83. Some say 2.5 some say 2.75. I am considering replacing the muffler with a Dynomax Super Turbo, perhaps 17739.  I had the factory L83 5.3 replaced with another L83 5.3 from Jasper Engines. I also put new Walker Cat / Y pipe on. I would appreciate opinions suggestions about what would be a good muffler setup. My main interest is a low rumble and the best flow / fuel mileage I can get. Not interested in straight through glass packs or loud exhaust. Those days are way behind me now.  Thanks Guys.  
    • Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"     I'd say its the head, and its either leaking at the casting line and dripping down the intake into the cylinder, or its another spot on the casting itself at the cylinder that is getting wet.  
    • Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.
