Bump refers to the ridge running down the body-line of our trucks. Dent refers to the indention running down the body-line illustrated in the pic below:

No problem :thup:. I think everyone with these trucks had that same question at one point, I know when I first got mine and I heard the word "Bump" I was totally confused :lol:.
