Shutler1 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Evening all, so, my drop down tailgate on my 90 is ****ed, looks like it's been run over, anyways, I have straightened most of it out had some bits welded on it replaced the dented center rib. But I still need one more part, I will try and make it out of a piece of ally but would be nice if I could just buy the part. Anyone know if you can buy separate parts of the tailgate panels. Cheers. Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 only supplied as a complete panel, no seperate ribs or skin as shown in http://lrcat.com/31/4/52770 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litch Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 YRM sell the centre rib but say you have already repaired this? The ribbed steel inner-liner is available separately. Is it part of the alloy frame that you require? Never come across that as a repair section. To be perfectly honest, decent tailgates aren't too expensive but it depends on how much time you are willing to put in to repair your existing one.

Shutler1 Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hi, the steel liner is fine and i have the center rib. Its just a panel at the bottom of the gate that was so damages that it split in half, i beat all the dents on the rest of the tailgate my self so its just this bit left, looks like i will have to make a new bit, id rater not buy a tailgate as this one was free with the truckcab. Cheers for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shutler1 Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 Haha, I'd rather not parrott it was ok doing my own but a bit time consuming, I'm a landscaper by trade so metal sheet work isn't rele my thing, I took it to a fabricator first off who quoted me £200 to repair it.
