Re: tailgate latches
Thank you, that is the top latch the ones I am currently working on are the side latches the top one is next. I will keep it in mind when I get to the upper one. I currently have a buddy machining me the fasteners. and I am working on making new springs. we will see how it goes.

Re: tailgate latches
Hi: Can anybody send me a picture of the latches on the body side of the rear tailgate? I converted to clamshell from barndoor and don't have the latches. In anticipation of trying to find them, is there a latch from something other than a 'burb that will work, and/or does anybody know where I can get them?
TIA |

Re: tailgate latches
When you get to the center latch and push button, will you send me a picture? I think mine is missing a piece. Thanks
