Title: Rubbers for tailgate rods
Post by: CoolFCWgn on September 24, 2014, 10:17:12 PM

Are the rubbers that go on the tailgate rods available reproduction? I don't see them listed anywhere.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Are these the ones that go onto the bracket on the side of the tailgate about 2 inches long and look like a fat rubber band ?
I pulled mine out last week to get the brackets zinc coated i also want to know whats available im thinking of using a fat sectioned O ring.

I removed "Old Mt Isa Boys" tail gate rod rubbers with a cutting disc on a Dremil so it could be easily replaced and the cut could be filled with polyurethane . I never questioned whether they were available , just how to get them back on . Haydn .
