:nono: nooooo i would report you. Now see.....you're jumping to conclusions.....it's a doorgunner War Story......but I cant do that to a veteran...... Thanks.....good conclusion! Double-check my Quotes...:icon_rofl::D
 
I can't deal with people who'd rather thread crap with a bunch of cute animals instead of posting more pictures of that beeeeeautiful truck. :icon_bounceblue: Just kidding about the first part, I've been cracking up for the last couple days at those pics. :icon_cheers:

I knew I shouldn't have said anything about kittens................I better get out there tomorrow & put more stuff on that truck.....(I could post some pics of the washing machine that I rebuilt today-----Naaaaaa....)

Anybody know of some lightweight hinges for a tailgate.....you know.....the kind that are made of 2 pieces of thin flat metal with a rivet holding the 2 pieces end to end so they fold up when you raise the tailgate ? What make of small truck would use them ?

Is that what you're talking about? The only place I've seen them is on screen doors of houses. Home depot would probably have them.
 
Topher.....nice try.....I better draw a picture since I can't describe it....

One end bolts to the side of the tailgate & the other end bolts to the inside wall of the bed........another one goes on the passengers side of the tailgate/bed.........
 
That's confusing...

So it 'swings' open? Rather than 'drops' open?
 
he means like the cables on the side of the gate i think. they fold up like the cable.

Egg-zakly!.........they fit closer to the bed walls than cables do.....I could make a pair out of polished stainless steel, but for now just neeed a pair that I can paint........visit boneyard perhaps?????????
