Beauty! Went to install my tailgate on my 48 F1 today, to find that box has no hinges, no chains, nothing.

SIGH. On call with company - they are mailing it out.

One of my hinges broke off, that’s why the tail gate is off. I have the parts but haven’t had the time.

I wish I had a picture of my tailgate but then I would have to learn how to post a picture here. My whole tailgate is a mural. Next time my Grandkids are here, maybe I can get them to help me. Being tech impaired is a bummer!! Steve

Steve, it's easy. Take a pic with your phone, start a new thread or reply to this one, click on the icon above to the right of the smiley face. It a little square with mountains and a sun. When the next window opens up click on browse your device. Then click on the picture you want to post. Wait while it loads then click on 'upload. "
