I saw that too on my build sheet. Have been wondering if it does any good to prevent rust? Or does it just trap water to allow quicker rust?

Aluminum panels shouldn’t rust, but I had that same thought about getting crap caught in there.

My 03’ F350 is beginning to turn into a rust bucket. I need to learn what parts of my Raptor and what isn’t. I’ve never owned an aluminum vehicle before.

Basically anything body panel on the cab or bed is aluminum. The front fenders and hood are fiberglass. The frame is steel. Galvanic corrosion can be an issue attaching things to the aluminum bed, so read up on that before bolting.
