I'm looking for sugguestions, praise or bashing of any aftermarket tailgates that are out there. Mine had a little accident....http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif


Most of the ones I can find have louvers, which is fine with me, I just want to see if you guys know of some that are out there that I dont know about.


Thanks! Jason

I have the Handy Louvered tailgate on mine: can be seen here:

But, if I had it to do over I would select one that had a stock type handle and locking capabilities. My lock mech. is homemade and not too hi-tech (Basic Master Lock, a piece of plastic coated cable, and 2 eye bolts). Not cool, but functional.
