Top Of Tailgate Removal, GMT900 NBS

The new tailgate is a joke, an outright joke. You pull off that cheap and cheezy tailgate protector from the factory and there's no metal under it. The plastic tailgate protector IS the top of the tailgate and a structural piece I guess...I was really disappointed when I ripped mine off. It's so soft if you actually use it for what it was designed for - to protect the tailgate while hauling stuff it shreds pretty easy. I stack 10'x10' timbers up there and in a matter of days it looked like someone took a utility knife and sliced it to pieces.

Is this correct? The top of the tailgate is plastic?

Nbs Highway Vibration, Truck is at the dealership and can't fix.

My new 2008 GMT900 Regular Cab Long Bed.
Drive shaft replaced.
Vibration at all speeds but most pronounced at 50-60 MPH.
Warranty.

I was told that I have a bad torque converter. They are ordering me one to install. 19000 mi

I have the same problem..and they are too replacing my TQ converter today

I have been doing some research and this may be a common problem.

I got the truck back today and the vibration is still there. The dealer has pretty much washed their hands of the problem by referring me to the TSB regarding the vibration. TSB #06-06-05-001A-(3/20/2007)

Now it is torque converters dying out?? C'mon...what's next with the NBS trucks???

It's funny you say that because i swear at times i have the same "rumble strip"[/QUOTE
Sorry to hear having trouble with your new truck. A little out of topic but did you bought this new truck and keep your tundra. Or you trade the tundra? Good luck with your new truck!
