Loose Tailgate Handle


Recommended Posts

Is there a way to fix it? I'm sure this had been touched on before, but I couldn't find anything.

 

My tailgate isn't in the best of shape and I'd prefer to replace it with a better one, but that is easier said than done. Plus I have a chrome handle and would hate to lose that since everything else is chrome on this thing. The thing hardly works though, have to pull it really far out before it engages and releases the gate with some resistance. I know there are those three torx bolts or whatever from the inside of the gate that I assume allows the handle to be removed, but once it is out what needs to be done to make it engage properly again?

Mine did the same thing years ago.  Can't remember what I did exactly to fix the handle but once I took it apart it was obvious what needed to be done.  I do remember thinking I should have done it sooner since it was a simple fix.
