    Update:

    I am tweaking design to increase strength and I've also found a fix for the weak, plastic nut inserts in the tailgate.

    Pics and updates soon to come.

    I hope so. I just ordered a kb tailgate top an hour ago. Just waiting to see what happens here before I pull the trigger on this too.

    Why not just order tailgate reinforcement that wraps over the top of the tailgate instead of 2 separate pieces? Seems the best of both worlds...

    The only one I've seen available is a steel diamond plate version in chrome, that I don't care for. Is there another one piece out there that I missed? Preferably in aluminum?

    Slow but steady, work is killing me. Been 60+ hour weeks for a few months now which keeps me from really focusing on other hobbies.

    That's one of the best complaints you could ask for. Glad to hear you have plenty of work.

    With this picture in mind. Saying the paper is like the stock plastic, which bends with weight. You add bends to prevent flex. Using that same demonstration, put a more rigid platform, (cardboard, sheet metal, etc...). Wouldn't that simulate the metal backing instead of the plastic one?
