Review for an 86 Ford F-350
It’s doesn’t fit an 1986 F350 right out of the box.
My truck had larger diameter pivot brackets and would not insert into the new gate.
I had to go to a wrecking yard to get donor hinges that were smaller diameter.
Also the bushing from my gate was too big as well and had to order new smaller ones in hopes they fit. If you don’t have an existing tailgate, you have to order the bushings anyways.
You have to re-use your cable stops as well, if you have them.
It fit and looks good though when latched, there’s quite an amount of play and will rattle. There is no further adjustment to prevent the play unless you buy more bushings for the metal latching bracket.
The gate looks better than what I had but, didn’t think I’d have to buy additional parts (new and used) to get it to work.
It came in a box with pictures of what it is.
It shipped quick.
