Update.  Went back to the dealer, and they fixed the level, but barely changed the height of the bar compared to the ridge.  As you can see from my amateur pics, the height of the bar is roughly 3/4'' inch above the ridge.  They claim that is as low as it should sit, and if it sat any lower, it would be blocked by the lip of the bumper.  They said if I wanted it 1/4'' above the ridge, they would do it for free, but if I was unsatisfied, that they would charge me to move it back to its current position.

 

Is there any way to get a pic of how close yours is to the ridge?  I know it will be hard to compare just based on pics, but a better way could be looking at the small circles stamped in the metal, and use those as a good baseline.  Would be interested to see how much of the small circle is covered on yours.  There is a chance I could be completely overthinking this.

 

Let me know your thoughts.  Thanks in advance!

Figured I'd try bumping this one more time.  Any Putco Blade owners that could take a pic of where their bar sits relative to the ridge and/or dimples stamped in the metal?  I might be making a mountain of a mole hill with the dealer, but I'd figure I would reach out.

 

Thanks in advance!

I have a 18 silverado I can't imagine it being much diff. I mounted my putco blade right above that ridge and its perfect. I have OCD so it had to be straight lol. I took my tailgate off to mount it though.
