    This weekend I made some small changes. I noticed the tailgate screws were getting crusty20181216_114759.jpg 20181216_114828.jpg
    So I went to my local hardware store and got some stainless replacements...20181216_115220.jpg
    All done.20181216_131455.jpg

    I also added d-rings to the front of the bed.

    Welcome to TW!
    Most likely the hardware store or online. There are a few threads on the topic.

    Thanks. I don't understand why the rear has d-rings but no the front.

    Are your replacement tailgate screws Star also? Look like Phillips and if so you will regret it.
