Re: Tailgate help
Hey there Willy, that bar is actually a safety feature which (when it's working properly) won't let you open the tailgate unless the window is rolled all the way down. When the window is up, the bar is pulled up by the spring into that "V" shaped notch in the picture and it locks the handle into place so you can't open the tailgate. (Carseats weren't really a thing when these things were new and you didn't want your kid dropping the tailgate by accident while you're driving down the road.) When the window is rolled all the way down, the bottom of the window pushes the bottom of that bar down and unlocks the handle.
I thought I had an extra one in the garage I could send you but just checked and I don't. Your best bet is to find a junk tailgate and get what you need off it because I don't think anyone is making these or the plastic carriers they come with anymore. Good luck and I hope this helps. |
