WTB Tailgate latches, rods, and handle.

I am tired of my automatic tailgate, I can't hardly pull out anywhere without it dropping!! My latches seem ok, but the rods are very rusty and the handle is shot. So please post pics and prices shipped to 37762. Thanks guys and gals!

Re: WTB Tailgate latches, rods, and handle.

I have 3 rusted out gates that I would have scraped already but I figured somebody could use the latches and handle and rods. Id take $35 for the parts but I don't know what it would cost to ship until i pull it out weigh and estimate a box size. I would guesstimate somewhere around $20 plus or minus 5 for shipping. If that sounds do-able I'll put one apart tomorrow and get an accurate price to ship. If its a lot more you can pass of course but I don't want to pull it apart if the estimate is to much. LMK Frank

Re: WTB Tailgate latches, rods, and handle.

If the deal falls through or you're looking for a ready to paint set I have a bead blasted complete original setup including the trunions for 120 shipped. Or a new setup for the same...

I also have a junk tailgate that the latches work well on, I'd be happy to throw them in a box for you for 25 bucks plus shipping, otherwise it's just going to get crushed. I'll pull them and get picts tomorrow.

got picts of mine for you. They're REALLY nice. Hardly any rust at all. And pretty much none on the metering rods. Handle is also very nice, just some surface rust inside. Both rods look the same, so only one pict. Yours for 25 plus shipping. I would guess shipping is 10 or less. So figure 35 shipped.

I'll take them since you were the first to post pics for me. Do you prefer paypal or money order? PM me the details! Thanks, -Rus
