Re: tailgate band

There should be 4 shiny Alan/star screws inside the tailgate and it just comes right off.

Re: tailgate band

Eric you know of any good junkyards in florida that have some trucks with some good parts? There is nothing down here in miami, but I am willing to go a bit further north to go find some parts. I can make a day out of it.
