Hello everyone.
I went to the truck to put x-mas gifts inside the bed. I lift the handle three times and the 3rd times it completely snapped. The tailgate is closed so how do I open and replace the handle. I've searched the forum and saw the COMPLETE handle on e-bay for $33. PLEASE HELP. The dealer told me 500 f$%^kin dollars to replace the handle and the plastic trim, since the trim around it will break when installing the new tailgate handle.
Questions
1. The only thing that broke is the handle. Do I have to purchase a new handle or complete assembly
2. My tailgate does not open, how do I install new handle/assembly. Do I have to climb in through cab and replace tailgate from inside.
3. The ebay price for $33 is the correct. (not bad for the entire assembly)
4. Does anyone have step by step instructions.
Again thanks
