Tailgate Hinge 245 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Herb Goltz on  Fri Nov 14 04:34 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Hello:

Consider replacing the tailgate wiring harness at the same time-- the aftermarket vendors sell them fairly cheaply now, or at the very least, splice in extensions in the gate and cut out the section that used to run through the hinge.

Also, if you have one broken hinge, chances are the other one is well-worn as well.

On a recent harness repair, I supported the gate on a board held up by two step ladders on either side of the car. It worked well.

Good luck!
