How do you fit new rubbers to the tailgate irons?
Title: Re: fc ute tailgate irons (stays) Post by: GMHwagoon on November 30, 2016, 02:14:40 PM You would have to split the rubber length ways ,place it on the bar then super glue the rubber together again . easiest way l think. fcwagoon Title: Re: fc ute tailgate irons (stays) Post by: Errol62 on December 03, 2016, 07:17:23 PM I wonder how these were done originally

Very hard to reproduce the look with a vice and a hammer :P Ken Title: Re: fc ute tailgate irons (stays) Post by: FCRB26 on December 03, 2016, 08:52:13 PM They are a weird kind of rubber.
I reckon they are formed in a mould around the rod ?

John Title: Re: fc ute tailgate irons (stays) Post by: Errol62 on December 04, 2016, 12:31:58 PM Cheers to Ken, Pete and John. Not worth the tooling now I suppose so fcwagoon's solution seems the go. Unless one of you enterprising fellows wants to rise to the challenge.
