I had them on my F-150. I loved them. Only problem I had was that under the summer sun they would get hot and try to warp a little which caused the 3M tape to come off at one end. Overall a great product though.

Got them on my Ranger.....easy to install and look great (IMO)...I went with the smooth ones w/holes and they fit perfectly.

I bought some for my Ranger, and when I placed them on the rail, they extended about 1/2 and inch past the top of the bed. I was going to just cut it to fit, but went with over the rail spray on liner. So returned them. I do have to say, they looked durable, and strong. But never field tested.

I just put some on and they were also about half an inch too long...so I hacked sawed them to fit. and sanded the ends nice. They look awesome. I didnt even need to use the tape to keep them on...my tonneau cover rails hold the caps down perfectly.

I have a set of the smooth ones with stake pocket holes on mine. They work great. I got them so I could have the benefits of an under-the-rail Duraliner (tie downs, dividers, etc), but still protect the rails.
