Thinking of drilling a hole for a locking pin where the pen is pointing

Looks like I will need to trim the face plate on the drawers to clear the cables and brackets.

interesting solution - looks good

we have debated whether to fab a tab so that the cable is forced to tuck in vertical when the tailgate is closed - don't have the design finalized yet

That's what I bought. Quality is good, heavy gauge. Fit was my issue. Had to widen several holes, drill several new ones. Can't beat that price though.

struggled with posting this here, because I really want to just go get it myself. But just isn't the right time for me.

Looks nice! Not a bad price if the swap was done right.

bezel is upside down

 

[77TLCFJ40]

Corrected (cut and re-welded) the left side cable to tailgate bracket.

 

[77TLCFJ40]

Cut some of the 3/8 aluminum as backing plates for the tub side of the cable. The right side already had a hole with a grommet that the license plate light wires formerly passed thru.

My starter is on the fritz. About 30 percent of the time it wont turn over so I open hood and tap on the starter with a hammer and it starts right up. Is there something I can do to that starter like clean it or should I just buy a new one?
