Post by RangerRat »

Anyone swapped the tailgate supports for cables off a newer f150?

No, but I just helped my son install one of these on his 2015 F150. Works great and the installation looks like it'll work on our bumps too.https://www.amazon.com/Dee-Zee-DZ43203- ... B007P05FBW

I've been thinking about that for our bumps. My Nissan Titan has that for the tail gate and its sweet!!, open the latch and let it glide down, no more slamming the tailgate.
