Stake Pocket Covers

[Ttheman]

I have a 2017 Ram 3500 (Now), and it has the factory bed rail covers. Which I like because the bed rails don't get scuffed up. I recently added a Rollup Tonneau cover to the bed, but it doesn't cover the stake pockets. (I knew it wouldn't). When I wash the truck a little water blows through the stake pockets and puts a little water in the bed.
I have looked on like and there are very few Stake Pocket covers advertised and none say the will work with the RAM bed rail covers. I see some that are not too pricey from Truxedo and they have kind of mixed reviews. Just wondering if any of you have looked for, found and are using Stake Pocket covers on your RAM bed rail covers.

Thought about that. Stood one in there from the garage, form the old ram. Didn't work for me aesthetically.. Good idea though!

Sorry about that. I have to old style but they also have a new low profile model. Maybe that would be better.

I found the drop ring type, That is an option, but I would prefer just a flat finish look. I chatted with Truxedo today they asked me to call after the holidays. I may buy a set and see how they work. Maybe its something I can work on with a shaping tool and find some satisfaction. I'll be sure to post what I find. I do appreciate the response.

I used a piece of black tape over the hole inside the bed and it seems to keep all the water out.

I had thought about looking at some of the bed drain covers and using them to plug the holes. Duck tape would work too, but was looking for something to give it more of a finished look on the bed rail. Nice idea though and I can see how it would totally work.

Ok I found a possibility Summit Racing part number TRD-8794,One guy on the review said that they fit the OEM Plastic bed rails on his '10 Ram Perfectly. We Shall See! I have on my rose colored glasses.

I found these on ebay earlier this year. They were the only one's that I found that seem to fit the what I needed. I did purchase a pair, not the cheapest, but were high quality and they work great.

Thanks for the info. If the ones I ordered don't workout, I will deffenetly give these a look. Little more than I really wanted to spend on plastic. I would need three sets! but if they work it would be worth it.

Ordered caps on Saturday they arrived on Monday morning. I read that they were brittle but didn't experience any issues on installation. I placed them in the hole, gave them pop with the palm of my hand. They fit perfectly. They will probably never come out again because of the way I used my truck. I had to buy two packages of 4 covers. I have a couple of spares.
Sooo… The place and the part number are in the posts, and I'll give the vendor and the product he thumbs up.
