    Not really sure why it's sitting high by the tailgate. Maybe the side rails on my truck are lifting the end up a little extra? Idk. Since I have a bedliner, I didn't use the roll of thin foam that's included for the front end of the cover, I thought maybe I could throw that on? And maybe it'll help seal that gap.

    Just curious if I'm the only one struggling here.

    I have the same cover but mine does not have those corner ends like yours however when mine isn't sitting flush it's because I didn't pull the cable and make sure it's latched in it's intended place but I can't tell with yours

    Mine sits flush. You’ll need to adjust it forward a little maybe left and right also. Then tighten it all down.

    Only other thing I can think is the side grab bar on both sides of the bed, is putting stress making it pop up there. I did try maneuvering it forward and back. But I'll try again, and I'll try L and R this time too

    Ah that could be it also. I also trimmed the gasket a bit more to help. Around the corner area.

    I have a bed rug on the walls, so my MX4 sits just a tad high. Barely noticeable. Certainly not like that.
