I did not install it on my 02 but it only has about 5K miles on it. I am getting some slight up/down movement between the frame mount and the top of the cap. Not the bar moving inside the cap at all... the entire cap moving up and down. I can't figure out by the instructions how I can cure this. Yes the stud is as tight as it can get in the frame bracket and it's NOT a loose stud moving it's the cap end moving on the stud... .
