Wanted 80 Series Factory Upper/Lower Reinforced Hatch and Swingout

[clarkfab]

Vehicle Model

1. 80 Series

Hello,

Unlike most folks, I really like my factory swing out. Unfortunately I had a good smack on the tire while the car was being worked on elsewhere. It looks like I will need the following to get things repaired:

-exterior swing out parts; arm and both QP mounts (pretty sure this is one assembly)
-Latch Plate for lower tail gate
-Upper rubber grommet plate for upper hatch.
-Upper hatch, reinforced
-Lower hatch/tailgate, reinforced

Happy to pay, just need to source parts. As rust free as possible, please! Willing to travel within reason.

Always wondered what would happen if mine got hit. Time to think about a rear Slee...

Can I have your old ones ?

just get USDM upper and lower hatch then make your own reinforcements for the top and bottom latches. Easy, no welding, use a 3/16 Steel Flat Bar from Home Depot. This is what I did for my USDM truck when I installed the jdm rear tire carrier (reinforced all 4 pts).
