Bed/body not aligned?


Recommended Posts

Posted

2020 AT4, 2000 miles, noticed this morning drivers side bed is about. 1/4-1/2” off. Anyone else notice this with theirs? In person it’s a little more obvious than the pictures.

Crap, I thought I read something about other people having the same issue. I did a quick search on my phone and couldn’t find anything. 
 

Do people get it fixed or just leave it?!

Take it to your dealer and see if they will make the necessary adjustments under your b to b warranty.

Plenty of posts a few years ago relative to the previous gen.  My K2 was off and my T1 is off 3/8-1/2" total so what, and it will still be off at trade in time?

 

And you take your chances going to a dealer hoping they can do better job than the factory robot lifting moving and reseating the heavy bed... one post claimed the mechanic(s) likely taking the easy way out, or lacking proper equipment, dented the shell trying to even it out and then played stupid about the cause claiming existing damage!

This has been an issue forever.  All of my trucks did not align except the ones that I built frame off.  They are fixture set in the plant so I have no clue why they can not fit them better.  I guess they figure most people do not care.  I do!!! but to lift the bed and align it properly is not worth the effort.  Here is a clip or Fort Wayne Assembly plant, about 9.30 in it shows the chassis decking tooling.  I like the entire clip but many may find it boring.
