Tailgate Rattle Diagnostics
I know I need new door seals, windshield seals and driver and passenger tracks or the windows replaced, so I am kinda used to the rattle my cab has, and know what I need to do to fix it.. However, I opened the rear window on my drive last night and really noticed the amount of rattle coming from the passenger side corner of the tailgate, at least that sound like where it is coming from. Sounds like the tailgate is not closed completely(Although it is) or the metal hinge that stops the tailgate from dropping is really loose. Any ideas as to what this may be? I saw a thread about tightening bolts and they seem tight and also a thread about zip tie a rubber hose around the tailgate arms, but the pictures did not come up to give me an idea as to how they did that.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
