Got a quick pic at work. I need to adjust my topper. It doesn't fit my bed spot on. 1/4 inch on the bed sides and maybe 1/2 or less on tailgate. But for $50 and have side doors I'll work with it. I plan on getting a new A.R.E topper that actually fits my truck

so i was driving home yesterday and my truck randomly died on me. it would barely crank over and it wouldnt start. i tried jumping juming it and it would start but wouldnt stay running unless i gave it gas. after the 3rd time it started sparking from the pos battery connector. i had someone pull me into town and i let it sit till ths morning. it fired right up with jumped but now theres a knock between the motor and trans

did you ever get around to why it was knocking or did it solve itself
no i did not. it sounds like its coming from between the motor and transmission. i pulled the bottom half of the bellhousing cover and didnt see anything rubbing. a mechanic where my dad works (sawmill) is coming to see if he cant find where it is coming from

Few years ago I had a bolt that backed off the flywheel cause a "rubbing knock" for a time until i figured it out.
