    Can anybody help me figure out what part I need to install my tailgate? I circled it in the picture, likely the male end of a hinge on the tailgate. 2A81D8AF-9333-43B4-959B-1A09E8FD494A.jpg

    You need the correct size bolt and collar/bushing for the tailgate to mount. These trucks use a bolt & collar set up on each side to mount. I will get you a picture tonight when I get home if no one chimes in before hand.

    BTW Welcome to TW.

    Hey, any follow up on the picture of the bolt & collar?

    When I go to tighten my bolt it just keeps spinning so I think the threads might be stripped? Any help/suggestions?

    I love how nobody offered to give the correct bolt size and thread pitch. I need this same bolt, having that information would be very helpful.
