ya every "wraparound" liner i've seen on a DAK has done this... mine came
with a factory installed liner and after 5 years the bed and bed rails are
scraped real bad.. i took the liner out and too some 1/4 thick by 3" wide
commerical grade weather foam stripping a found in a dumpster (while
looking for computers) and used double stick tape and taped it to the
bottom of each side of the bed liner... this way the liner sits up about
1/4" above the bed rail and doesn't make enough contact to scrape it up
anymore...
