1981 C20 Stepside Chevy tailgate

I got several answers on how to remove the tailgate, and most were wrong. You do not close the tailgate to within 6 inches and it pulls up...on a stepside, you have to unbolt the trunnion. The trunnion has a slot and you have to hold it from turning (needle nose vise grips worked for me) and undo the bolt. It's not at all like the other tailgate removals. Just wanted to share in case somebody else has the question. Thanks.
