Its in a 2001

I have tried to patch it with some gunk that you put on and use heat to activate it, but it didn't last very long.

I called Ford, and they told me that replacement seat covers were NO LONGER AVAILABLE.........

Is there a better way to patch a shredded seat cover?

Have any of ya'll been able to find replacement covers?

I don't really want to just put one of those floppy "add on" seat covers if I don't have to.

Now, I know a ranger tailgate will work but my question is....Am i restricted to the 84-92 ranger tailegate or will a mid 90's one work?

The reason I'm asking is that my local wreckers have an abundance of mid 90's rangers but all the older ones have been well stripped.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks.

One added question.... Are there any speedbumps I should watch for when installing the tailegate (i.e. placement, alignment etc), are there any tricks to any easy install?
