Tailgate Trunnions?
 
Is that what they are called?
I've been searching the forums. I found maybe one thread. Are you guys buying new?
I found only two sets in old for sale threads.
And none used on eBay.
If you bought new, are you happy with them, or are used better?

I bought a set of these for a guy I know. I don't know how he likes them but when I had them they looked and felt good. He is a member here with a build thread.

I purchased these and I am very happy with them. Very good quality and price. I believe this is the website to the product Captainfab linked in Ebay. http://tdtrunniondesign.com

I'm so cheap.
I may end up regretting it, but I bought the $20 LMC ones.

I bought the LMC ones as well. My truck isn’t on the road yet, so I haven’t opened the gate a whole lot yet but from what I can tell they seem pretty solid. I had to do some minor trimming on the bedside flange for them to have the clearance they need, but I am running aftermarket bedsides.

Thanks, I'll post back how they fit.
My sides and gate are original metal.

The $20 LMC ones fit just fine.
