Tailgate Latch
I am trying to find a way to movve the tailgate latch to the inside of the tailgate. I plan on using sheet metal and covering the indentation and haing a smooth outer tailgate. I've tried the search option here, to find other posts about this, but it keeps saying search is unavailable. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Robert.

Re: Tailgate Latch
I think LMC or NPD has a kit for this..... Will save you money and time as the parts are designed to fit....

Re: Tailgate Latch
I believe it's LMC, but it runs around $100.00. If you get it make sure you scan any templates and take pics and measurements of all parts before you install it.
