Tailgate

I posted this question on the Blazer/Jimmy side with little advice. So I thought I would ask the same question here on the truck side.
"I've searched lots of threads about repop tailgates on here. Most were older threads. So, what's the latest on reproduction tailgates??? Is Tri Plus the best? Are any of them worth buying?"

Re: Tailgate

I believe I bought mine from Classic Industries (its been a while) but most of the repops are probably made in the same place. I smoothed out the spot welds on mine and am pleased with the overall quality. Mine is a stepper though.

Re: Tailgate

Wow that tailgate looks great. The WHOLE truck looks great, always loved that color. Do you know who the manufacturer of your tailgate was?
