Distance between top of bed rail and FW and Front of FW and back of cab during a 90 degree turn. Dealer should have checked and adjusted for all of this with the install but check it out anyways. You should have a minimum of 6" space between the bed rail of the truck and the FW. Also when turning or driving on uneven ground keep a close eye on the bedrails because that 6" of space shrinks very fast and you don't want a dent in your bedrail.

Make sure you don't have anyone offering to help when you do it. Sure fire way to forget to do something.
