I just noticed the illustration from Cabelas shows it mounted on the bed, not the gate. That would not work on the Maverick ! The type of seal might work fine but it has to go on the tailgate.

That’s the size of mine. Glad you found it. That kit from Cabela’s above looks pretty good too. I see it has the 3m tape but to be honest weatherstrip glue from 3m would work great on the one from Steele.
Awesome ! Thank You Ringo !

I also ordered the Truxedo model here and I planned to install it today. You said in an earlier post "weatherstripping goes on the movable part". Can you give more info on why that is? Every install seems to have it on the fixed bed. I'm curious why you think it would be more affective on the tailgate.

Temporarily place it on the bed, (masking tape),put a flashlight in the bed, shut the tailgate and and look at the gap. it will do absolutely nothing to seal it there . It's not what I think, It's what I know. nothing is 100% but we are talking about a Maverick, right?

Remembered the way to do most weatherstripping. Place it on the moveable part!

Ringo- great post, pictures, and your Maverick looks great!! I will definitely be grabbing some of this style weatherstripping. Hell I’m thinking this could even help behind the driver side tail lamp keeping the road debris From draining out on side of truck! I get my tonneau cover and window visors 1/22
