Jeff, does your tailgate dance and sing
while you are running down the road

you could also use seat belt latches....

as far as rattles, you could drill the hole over-sized and put a rubber grommet in it to cushion the sliding bar

That's just not a hat rack you got there is it Joe??....

Thanks

I'd get the ones from mar-k. So when your haulin a load it can take it. I could see haulin something and the sheet metal screws ripping out.

joe231 · 05-15-2009, 12:55 PM

Jason, what screws?
weld those puppies on!

I wouldn't be the only one on here with screws loose....
I do remember seeing the seat belts installed and I really thought that was a slick idea.

MacAttack · 05-15-2009, 01:04 PM

Good looking work, David!

And yes, real men's trucks rattle.

No, it does not. I drilled the holes just barely larger than the pins and I have to lean on the gate to close it. It's tight. I know its hard to believe, but Im guessing that your tailgate isnt perfectly square...

...mines not. It 'naturally' holds itself in place.

Ive seen the seatbelt latches in a couple places, but the one I remember lately was Hillbilly Deluxe....I think.

joe231 · 05-15-2009, 05:24 PM

notice the truck I'm getting has no latches or chains
it has the seat belt latches

4dranch · 05-15-2009, 08:13 PM

Well it looks like I am going the smooth route..

Thanks guys. Ooh and Joe I hope you get your new truck as planned..

**scotts62** · 05-15-2009, 08:36 PM

Yeah not as planned....
I was hoping to get to see it today but they will get it fixed and to him

4dranch · 05-15-2009, 08:42 PM

Good things come to those who wait.......

**scotts62** · 05-15-2009, 08:50 PM
