Tailgate Won't Open | 1st Gen Cummins

Today I show you how to repair my tailgate on Ol' Blue that doesn't open. It's a very simple fix and should be a regular maintenance item to replace these worn plastic clips and lubricate all of these moving parts to keep things in good working order.
Stay tuned for more videos!
Tyler,

You need an impact driver for those 3 screws!

I'll add it to my bday list

Another good info for First Genners. I call dibs 1st on that real neat diamond plate, IF you pull them out ? 😉👍

[@OvensGarage]

Haha, no way is that coming out...it's way too cool and I'm keeping it :)

[@ronsre-creations5289]

@@OvensGarage Just figured I'd call dibs just in case. LoL.... Hey I think I found an alternative substitute for the factory end links. (and finding used originals.) I ordered a pair and I get them friday. They are 36/37 bux with shipping for the pair. If they turn out to be suitable. I'll do a video. But I'll let you know ahead of time. Keep your fingers crossed.

@@ronsre-creations5289 yes let me know how they work out. I was just looking at the sway bar from the fender well at the side and it isn't too far off from parallel to be honest. I might just keep it then hunt down some leveling springs down the road.

@@OvensGarage sounds good. I'll keep ya posted.
